ABSTRACT:
In a plasma reactor for reducing stable oxides, particularly alumina, oxide and carbon in particle form are allowed to descend through an upper plasma zone in which there is a precessive plasma column, into a lower collection zone, which has one or more gas outlets leading from a central region of its floor and a peripheral collection trough. The precessive plasma column imparts a rotational movement to descending particles so that solid or liquid droplets are separated from evolved carbon monoxide in the collection zone in the manner of a cyclone separator. High tension electrodes and/or liquid metal sprays may be provided to assist coalescence of fine droplets in the collection zone.
