Numerical analysis of H2 formation during partial oxidation of H2S H2O upon activation of oxidizer by an electric discharge

Numerical Study of Syngas Production during Partial Oxidation of Sour Natural Gases upon Activation of Oxygen by an Electrical Discharge

“…The calculation methodology is close to that used by Arsentiev et al Therefore, here, we briefly present only the main points. Oxygen, activated in the electric discharge and passed through the post-discharge reactor, and sour natural gas are supplied to the reactor of instantaneous mixing, from which the homogeneous mixture enters the flow reactor.…”

“…To take into account the effect of electronically excited oxygen molecules O 2 ( a 1 Δ g ) and O 2 ( b 1 Σ g + ), the reactions with these species, borrowed from refs and , were also added to the mechanism . Unfortunately, experimental studies on the effect of O 2 ( a 1 Δ g ) and O 2 ( b 1 Σ g + ) molecules on the ignition and combustion of CH 4 and H 2 S have not been carried out to date.…”

“…Various plasma-assisted technologies are also used to intensify the conversion of hydrocarbons − or H 2 S. − The least energy-consuming method is the use of non-equilibrium low-temperature plasma containing highly reactive atoms and radicals or excited molecules. These species enhance the chain mechanism development and intensify the partial oxidation of primary fuel.…”
