  • Publication number: 20130161298
    Abstract: The present invention provides a plasma torch device. The device comprises a front electrode, a back electrode and a vortex flow generator. The torch roots of the back electrode are moved by fixed magnets. By controlling the magnets coordinated with vortex air flow, the torch roots are moved back and forth periodically on inner surface of the back electrode. The torch roots do not stay at the same place for long for preventing increasing local heat burden of the electrode. Thus, life time and maintenance cycle of the electrode is prolonged with reduced operational cost of plasma torch and enhanced reliability of the device.

  • Patent number: 8187368
    Abstract: The present invention provides a low power consumption desorption apparatus, which utilizes a pair of electrodes coupled to an absorbing material to provide an electric current flowing through the absorbing material so as to desorb the substances absorbed within the absorbing material. By means of the desorption apparatus of the present invention, the absorbing material is able to enhance the desorbing efficiency and reducing power consumption during desorption. The present invention further provides a dehumidifier using the low power consumption desorption apparatus for providing a continuous dry air flow to desorb and regenerate the moisture from the absorbing material so that the dehumidifier is capable of removing moisture in the air repeatedly to reduce the humidity.
