A moving bed reactor system is provided. The system comprises at least one gas inlet, a distributor, a temperature control, a plurality of electrodes, and a spark control circuit. The spark control circuit drives the electrodes and generates a multi-arc discharge when the system is loaded with particles and a gas at approximately atmospheric pressure or greater is being pumped through the system. The multi-arc discharge is useful to create activated species which may improve the rate of a chemical reaction taking place in the moving bed reactor system.
A moving bed reactor system comprising at least one fluid inlet, a distributor, a temperature control, a plurality of electrodes, and a control circuit which drives the electrodes, wherein the control circuit can drive the electrodes so as to produce a multi-arc discharge when the system is loaded with particles and a fluid at approximately atmospheric pressure or greater is being driven into the system.
A method of generating a multi-arc discharge, comprising the steps of:
