Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/134448
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a device and a method for combusting particulate substances, wherein particulate substances discharged from an internal combustion engine can be efficiently combusted, and the structure of the device is simple so that the size and the weight of the device is not increased.
The device for combusting particulate substances is comprised of an introduction portion (8) for introducing a particulate substance-containing gas (5) discharged from an exhaust port of an internal combustion engine; a charging device (11) provided on the downstream side of the introduction portion (8), with which the particulate substance-containing gas (5) is brought into contact, so that the entirety or a part of particulate substances (6) is electrically charged; an electric discharge device (15) wherein particulate substances (6'), the entirety or a part of which are electrically charged, provided within an insulation pipe (100) continuously provided on the downstream side of the charging device (11) are introduced to a silent discharge area (A1) generated between a positive electrode (133) and a negative electrode (131) and, then, are combusted; a discharge portion (9) provided in the insulation pipe (100) on the downstream side of the electric discharge device (15) to discharge gas after combustion; and a power source device (4) which applies an electric field to the charging device (11) and the electric discharge device (15).
