Using the MCPA, we exemplarily investigate the plasma-catalytic conversion of n-butane (C$_4$H$_{10}$), employing ex-situ fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) at the gas outlet to evaluate conversion efficiency and product selectivity....
With the increasing demands towards large area plasma etching and deposition, the radial uniformity of capacitively coupled plasmas (CCPs) becomes one of the key factors that determine process performance in industrial applications. However,...
A Direct Current (DC) nanosecond (ns)-pulsed plasma jet fed with N2 at near atmospheric pressure (20 000 Pa) is studied using a transient zero-dimensional (0-D) model coupled with a two-term Boltzmann equation solver. Good agreement is observed...
The abatement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial exhaust gases is critical for environmental compliance. Surface dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD) reactors enable plasma- driven oxidation of hydrocarbons such as n-butane under...
While the ozonolysis of tetramethylethylene (TME) has been investigated in detail, studies combining plasma-generated ozone with TME are scarce. Here, we present a feasibility study using a twin-surface dielectric barrier discharge (twin-SDBD)...
An easy-to-implement technique for measuring the dissipated plasma power of RF-excited plasmas at a frequency of 13.56 MHz is presented in this work. Specifically, the AD8302 phase detection board is used to measure the phase difference between...
We investigate a micro cavity plasma array (MCPA) reactor operated at atmospheric pressure, offering excellent diagnostic accessibility and flexible opportunities for catalyst integration. Here, the dissociation of CO2 diluted in helium into CO...
Atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) can remove harmful components from gas streams energy efficiently and with short switch-on and -off times based on excess renewable energies. Two classical types of DBDs are frequently...
Dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs), and in particular microcavity plasma arrays (MCPAs), represent a promising reactor platform for plasma-catalytic studies, as they allow plasma generation directly at catalytic surfaces, thereby providing...
Atmospheric-pressure RF plasma jets based on the parallel-plate COST-Jet reference plasma source geometry *Golda J et al 2016 J. Phys. D: Appl. Phys.* **49** 084003) are investigated in He/O2 mixtures under different driving voltage waveforms....
