This presentation is a pure steam-plasma torch generated by microwave energy and uses it for coal gasification in a lightweight operating system. The high temperature of the steam torch when used for fast gasification reactions of low-grade coal ensures a compact reaction system for an electrical power plant.

Amultifunctional material, strontium zirconate, SrZrO3, studied in literatures as a dielectric ceramics, thermal barrier coating, proton-conductor, and luminescent material was sprayed by a water-stabilized plasma torch WSP 500. Stainless steel and plain carbon steel were used as substrates. Coatings with thickness of 1 to 2 mm were produced, whereas the substrates were preheated over 450 °C. T...

Rapid qualitative and quantitative analysis of solid samples (e.g., pharmaceutical preparations) by using a small and low-resolution mass spectrometer without MS/MS function is still a challenge in ambient pressure ionization mass spectrometric analysis. Herein, a practically efficient method termed microwave-enhanced in-source decay (MEISD) using microwave plasma torch desorption ionization co...

H aving firmly grasped the torch that Mahadev Satyanarayanan handed to me, I feel like the second runner in a relay, sprinting to make as much progress as I can during my allotted time. Satya founded IEEE Pervasive Computing, which, in the last four years, has published a rich legacy of peer-reviewed work and earned a venerable reputation. I will do my best to maintain this reputation and, wher...
