Abstract
Abstract The apparatus of the present invention is adapted to produce an efficient reaction between a gas and a nongaseous substance at relatively low ambient temperatures. The gas flows through a chamber containing the nongaseous substance and is subjected to an RF field. A passive resonant circuit is linked by the field through the medium of the gas. Exciting the gas in this way, produces a marked increase in the reaction rate.
