Abstract:
System for treating gases or liquids by means of corona discharge, comprising:a) a corona discharge space through which the gases or fluids to be treated are guided,b) a corona wire inside the corona discharge space,c) a source for generating a high voltage, an output of said source being connected to the corona wire,d) control electronics for controlling the operation of the high voltage generating source based on at least one parameter related to the corona discharge space, characterized in that the high voltage generating source generates high voltage pulses, and that the system comprises furthermoree) an electromagnetically compatible case formed by housings of electrically good conducting material, each completely closed or closed to a large extent, wherebythe corona discharge space is surrounded by one of these enclosures,the high voltage generating source is surrounded by another of these enclosures,the control electronics are installed inside at least one or more further enclosures,whereby the enclosures are mutually connected in a well conducting manner and whereby signal conduits, high voltage conduits and supply conduits extending between the mutual enclosures as well as between said enclosures and the outside world comprise at least two parallel conductors, of which at least one conductor at the in/output in/out an enclosure is connected electrically conducting to the wall of said enclosure and surrounds thereby the other conductor completely.
