Medically important biofilms and non-thermal plasma
World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018In recent decades, the non-thermal plasma, i.e. partially or completely ionized gas produced by electric discharges at ambient temperature, has become of interest for its microbiocidal properties with potential of use in the food industry or medicine. Recently, this interest focuses not only on the planktonic forms of microorganisms but also on their ...

The spectroscopy on non-thermal plasmas
Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer, 1962Abstract The investigation of plasmas by studying the emitted radiation is not a new subject but has long been the main observational technique of the astrophysicist. However, the recent development of controlled thermonuclear research presents problems to the spetroscopist which are very different from those generally treated by the astrophysicist ...

Tars removal by non-thermal plasma and plasma catalysis
Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2018Abstract The gasification of a fuel or biomass is an industrial process that is utilized for synthesis gas (syngas) production. The syngas can be used to generate electricity, but after gasification it is often polluted with tars and various other pollutants.

Non-Thermal Plasmas for VOCs Abatement
Plasma Chemistry and Plasma Processing, 2014Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are some of the most common air pollutants emitted from commercial and industrial processes; VOCs may also reduce indoor air quality. Increased environmental awareness, however, has resulted in stringent regulations controlling VOCs emission and has motivated researchers to develop various kinds of treatment.

Characterization of a non thermal plasma torch
2009 IEEE Pulsed Power Conference, 2009A non thermal He plasma needle was developed and characterized. The plasma was produced using the method presented in Anghels et al. [2], which utilizes a resonant transformer to produce the voltages necessary to breakdown the helium (He) working gas.

Atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma
IEEE Conference Record - Abstracts. 1997 IEEE International Conference on Plasma Science, 2002Summary form only given, as follows. We discuss several configurations of dielectric-barrier discharges to produce stable and uniform plasma in air. The discharges have potential applications in manufacturing, pollution cleanup and sterilization. A dual pressure discharge will be discussed. The UV produced by low pressure discharge is coupled to a high

Non-thermal plasmas in and in contact with liquids
Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 2009During the last two decades atmospheric (or high) pressure non-thermal plasmas in and in contact with liquids have received a lot of attention in view of their considerable environmental and medical applications. The simultaneous generation of intense UV radiation, shock waves and active radicals makes these discharges particularly suitable for ...

Non-thermal velocities in flare plasmas
Advances in Space Research, 1996The analysis of the profile and intensity of the soft X-ray lines formed in the wavelength range from 1.8 A to 20 A, observed with the Soft X-ray Polychromator of the Solar Maximum Mission (SMM), shows that solar flare plasmas are characterized by non-thermal velocities.
