Study of low-power plasma-chemical module for carbon dioxide decomposition
https://doi.org/10.15518/isjaee.2025.10.083-092
Abstract
This article demonstrates the relevance of the plasma method for carbon dioxide utilization. An installation for oxygen regeneration from carbon dioxide based on quasi-stationary pulsed nonequilibrium plasma is described. The percentage of oxygen in the mixture obtained using an electrochemical sensor is presented. According to the results of the work, it was found that in the installation, the maximum percentage of oxygen is achieved in the interelectrode gap of 3 mm at a pulse repetition rate of 5 kHz. The energy spent on the formation of one oxygen molecule at a flow rate of 7 l/min is 7,44 eV/mol. It was shown that in addition to oxygen, ozone is obtained in this installation, which allows an additional increase in the percentage of oxygen in the resulting mixture by decomposing ozone in hoptalum. Thus, it was shown that it is possible to create a mobile device for processing carbon dioxide obtained during human breathing into oxygen based on the discharge described in the article.
