Title:
REACTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2010215468
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a reactor, which is superior in the reaction efficiency of reforming reaction, can produce a large amount of a reformed gas, can reduce power consumption, reduce the load on an electrode and extend the use time of the electrode.

The reactor 1A includes a reaction vessel 10 having an inlet 4 for a to-be-reformed gas 2 and an outlet 8 for a reformed gas 6, a pair of electrodes 12 for plasma generation, a power source 14 for applying a voltage to the pair of electrodes 12, and a catalyst for promoting a reforming reaction, wherein one of the pair of electrodes 12 is a linear electrode 32, the other of the pair of the electrodes 12 is a honeycomb electrode 34 made of conductive ceramic, and the catalyst is carried on the partition walls of the honeycomb electrode 34. The reactor further includes shielding members 30A placed between the linear electrode 32 and the honeycomb electrode 34, which are protruded toward the gas-introducing end face side of the honeycomb electrode 34 and prevent the inflow of the to-be-reformed gas 2 passing through a zone other than a plasma-generating zone 42.
