ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for glow discharge at pressures of atmospheric and above stabilized between two electrodes spaced apart greater than 3 mm by a swirling gas path. The passage of a reactant gas in the swirling gas stream may be utilized for highly efficient chemical reactions and heating of the gas stream. The simple and compact apparatus for atmospheric pressure glow discharge is suitable for chemical conversion of hydrocarbon gases into higher molecular weight products of greater value, for pretreating combustible hydrocarbon gases for enhanced combustion and for production of intense white light.
