In a method and device for conversion of water into hydrogen peroxide (H.sub.2O.sub.2), a corona discharge zone is generated between a first electrode (10) and a second electrode (6) one of which is insulated and another of which is not insulated and wherein a respective surface of each of the electrodes face one another. The first electrode (10) is rotated so as to induce relative rotation between the first electrode and the second electrode; and liquid water is conveyed on to a surface of the first electrode facing the second electrode close to the axis of rotation (4) of the first electrode whereby the liquid water advances outward through the corona discharge zone towards a periphery of the first electrode under the action of centrifugal force caused by rotation of the first electrode.

Provided is a powder supply device for a secondary battery which can always supply a fixed amount of powder with high accuracy without being influenced by a state of the powder. In addition, provided is an apparatus for manufacturing an electrode body, which includes the powder supply device and can efficiently manufacture an electrode body. The powder supply device includes a rotor which makes powder fall into an opening, and a mesh body which covers the lower end of the opening. Uneven portions or projecting portions are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the rotor. The rotor is rotatably supported in a storing portion. The gap is formed between the outer circumferential surface of the rotor and the inner surface of the storing portion so that they are spaced apart. The mesh body is arranged away from the outer circumferential surface of the rotor.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a color sensor is provided for sensing whether a ground roller in a corona treatment system needs to be serviced. The color sensor is capable of detecting imperfections which have changed the reflectance level of the ground roller from a predefined level. According to another aspect of the present disclosure, if a determination is made that the ground roller needs to be serviced, then an alarm is activated and/or the operation of the corona treatment system is ceased.

An electrification apparatus for dust collection includes an electrification module configured to generate ions that are emitted to air. The electrification module comprises: a high voltage tip comprising at least one discharge tip configured to emit the ions in a direction opposite to a flow direction of the air, a conductive plate that surrounds the discharge tip and that is configured to generate an electric potential difference with the discharge tip of the high voltage tip, a lower frame that mounts the conductive plate and the high voltage tip, an upper frame that is coupled to a first side of the lower frame and that covers the conductive plate and the high voltage tip, the discharge tip protruding outward through the upper frame, and a ground mesh coupled to a second side of the lower frame.

The present disclosure describes material surface treatment systems and methods that employ a byproduct treatment system to receive a byproduct generated by application of a plasma, the byproduct treatment system configured to degrade the byproduct and exhaust the degraded byproduct from the material surface treatment. The disclosed byproduct treatment system modifies the byproduct prior to evacuation from the material treatment system in order to reduce or eliminate byproduct contamination into the surrounding atmosphere.

The invention relates to a method for surface treating a substrate (28) by means of an electrical corona discharge, wherein aerosols (5) are sprayed into discharge area defined by an active gap formed between a corona electrode and the substrate (28) during the discharging, designed such that the aerosols (5) are sprayed substantially opposite the direction of gravity.
