Abstract

Catalytic hydrogenation is applied when purifying the crude neon-helium mixture from hydrogen. A part of the heat allocated in this process can be used for the operation of a thermosonic cold generator. Its operational processes have been described. It has been shown that the stacks in which a transformation of heat to acoustic energy and vice versa occurs, are the basic elements of the thermosonic cold generator. An units design for the catalytic purification of the neon-helium gas mixtures with the specified cold generator is being considered. It is possible to increase the efficiency of the units for the neon-helium gas mixture purification by 25-28 % when using this generator.
