The invention relates to a facility () for microwave treatment of a load, including: at least one application device (); at least one solid-state generator () in the field of microwaves, connected to at least one application device by a means for guiding () the electromagnetic wave; at least one frequency adjustment system () designed for adjusting the frequency of the wave produced by the corresponding generator (); a measurement system () for the or each application device (), designed for measuring the power reflected Pby the application device (); an automated control means () connected to each frequency adjustment system () and to each measurement system () in order to control the adjustment of the frequency fof the electromagnetic wave according to the reflected power, in order to adjust the reflected power Pand/or to adjust the transmitted power P.

Facility for microwave treatment of a load

The invention relates to a device () for applying electromagnetic energy to a reactive medium, with said device being designed to be connected to an electromagnetic radiation generator using a means of transmission () of said radiation, with the device being remarkable in that it includes at least one loss transmission line () that features an interface that transfers electromagnetic energy towards the reactive medium, with said transfer interface being arranged so as to assure, throughout the length of the said line, a pre-determined distribution cross-section for the density of the electromagnetic energy delivered to said medium by said line. The invention also relates to a device for processing, by electromagnetic radiation, of a reactive medium including such an application device. The present invention can be applied to the sector of devices for thermal treatment of a reactive medium, specifically by microwave or high-frequency radiation.

Device for applying electromagnetic energy to a reactive medium

The device for electromagnetic radiation treatment of a reactive medium includes an electromagnetic radiation generator, a reactor containing the reactive medium, and a device for transmitting the electromagnetic radiation generated by the generator to the reactive medium contained in the reactor. The device includes a wave guide for transmitting the electromagnetic radiation from the generator and a coupling means arranged to allow transfer within the reactive medium of the electromagnetic energy transmitted by the wave guide. The wave guide includes a curved segment in a general 'U' shape forming a return loop from the wave guide. The device further includes a separation wall that isolates the generator form the reactor, with the reactor being connected to the curved segment. The curved segment extends at least partially from one side of the separation wall to the opposite generator.
