Abstract
Pulsed corona discharge (PCD) is an energy-efficient method of water treatment, although its instability in treatment of conductive solutions showered onto the electrodes presents a problem. The impact of conductivity and gaseous ozone concentration on the discharge stability and the energy transfer efficiency was established. The discharge was stabilized by adjusting the voltage pulse shape. Energy dissipation increases with the treated solution conductivity due to ohmic losses reaching 30% of the energy delivered to the reactor at 45 mS cm−1. The PCD energy efficiency and safety was improved by the modified electrode system design reducing the losses.
