  • Publication number: 20110073282
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for cooling a plasma processing system for processing a mixture of particularly gaseous fluids, which comprises a means for coupling a source of microwave power to a mixture of particularly gaseous fluids flowing in a dielectric tube at the level of the coupling means adapted for transferring a portion of the microwave energy to the fluid mixture in order to generate therein a plasma for initiating the breaking of at least some chemical bonds of the fluid molecules, wherein said dielectric tube is at least partially cooled down by a coolant flow in thermal contact with the outer wall of the tube to be cooled.

  • Publication number: 20090263257
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for distributing products, in particular pyrophoric, from a storage point to a use point. According to the invention, an inert gas is bubbled through the product, in particular pyrophoric, to be purified in the liquid state in order to generate a mixture, the mixture is preferably routed close to the use point, the product, in particular pyrophoric, is separated from the inert gas and from some light impurities, to generate a purified final product, in particular pyrophoric, in liquid or solid form. The purified product is supplied in a quantity just necessary to the use point, particularly when it is solidified in the heat exchanger after the transport of the mixture.

  • Publication number: 20080234530
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the conversion of a gas or gas mixture and, in particular, a fluorinated gaseous effluent. According to the invention, at least one bond between two atoms of at least one molecule of the gas or gas mixture is broken under the influence of an electric and/or magnetic field to which the gas or gas mixture is subjected. The gas or gas mixture stream is injected through the electric and/or magnetic field in a non-rectilinear manner in order to increase the distance travelled by the gas molecules through the field and, in this way, increase the effectiveness of the conversion of the gas or gas mixture molecules.

  • Patent number: 7347054
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for delivering gas stored in a vessel in liquefied form, said vessel having in its lower part a liquefied phase of said gas and in the upper part a gaseous phase of said gas, which vessel includes a means for connecting to a means for utilization as well as a means for heating the lower part of said vessel. In accordance with the invention, the liquefied gas and/or the shell of the vessel are electrically conductive elements and the means for heating comprises an electromagnetic induction means capable of producing an alternating magnetic field in the shell and/or the liquid so as to heat the shell in its lower part and/or the liquid in the vessel, all while limiting the heating of the gas by said means.
