In this work, a two-dimensional chemically non-equilibrium (NCE) model has been developed for Ar inductively coupled thermal plasma (ICTP) with C-H-O system at atmospheric pressure from the viewpoint of plasma process and fuel combustion. Chemically non-equilibrium effects have been taken into account by solving mass conservation equations for each of 22 particles (including atoms, molecules, i...

The inactivation mechanism of virus and bacteria by atmospheric discharge plasma has been studied actively. However, predominant factors in the inactivation are not clear at all. Because the atmospheric discharge plasma includes a lot of possible inactivation factors such as active oxygen species, ozone and ultraviolet rays, it is difficult to analyze each effect separately. In this study, bact...

The use of thermal and non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma to solve problems related agriculture biomedicine is the focus this paper. Plasma in equilibrium used where heat required. In agriculture, it treat soil land contaminated by products biomass, plastics, post-hospital pharmaceutical waste combustion, also ecological phenomena that have recently been observed, such as droughts, floods ...

C2+ hydrocarbons are selectively produced in one-step catalytic CO2 conversion via designing the catalyst-bed configuration under non-thermal DBD plasma operating at low temperature and atmospheric pressure.

Plasmas have a broad field of applications, such as air-breathing hypersonic vehicles (plasma control for scramjet engine), spacecraft atmospheric entries (influence of precursor electrons and prediction of blackout phenomenon), high-enthalpy wind tunnels (plasmatron, arc-jet, and shock tube facilities), lightning phenomena, discharges at atmospheric pressure, laboratory nuclear fusion and astr...

In this work, plasma has been used as a simple, very fast, low energy and efficient method for modification of the zinc oxide nanopowder to improve its photocatalytic activity. Zinc is one effective photocatalysts in degradation organic contaminants, e.g. dyes. The purpose photocatalyst reduce band gap thus increase activity visible light range. To achieve nitrogen-doped nanoparticles (N-Doped ...
