Li. Krasovskaya et al., EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL-STUDY ON THE DISSOCIATION OF NEBULIZED NITRIC-ACID IN A PLASMA REACTOR, High energy chemistry, 29(3), 1995, pp. 203-210
An experimental study of the dissociation of nitric-acid vapor in a 15
0-kW are plasma reactor was carried out. It was shown that the content
of the gas phase differs from the equilibrium composition and is dete
rmined by the kinetics of gas reactions. Numerical simulation of the k
inetics of chemical reactions occurring during interaction of nebulize
d solutions of nitric acid with flowing air plasma was performed. The
results obtained indicate the feasibility of effective utilization of
nitrogen oxides upon plasma treatment of nitrate solutions.
