A twin surface dielectric barrier discharge was used with a two-component coating to oxidize 300 ppm n-butane to CO2 and H2O in synthetic air at room temperature and at 160 ℃. The integration of BaTiO3 as a base material allowed the successful...
Plasma-generated H2O2 can be used to fuel biocatalytic reactions that require H2O2 as co-substrate such as the conversion of ethylbenzene to (R)-1-phenylethanol ((R)-1-PhOl) catalyzed by unspecific peroxygenase from Agrocybe aegerita (rAaeUPO)....
Plasma-driven biocatalysis utilizes in situ H2O2 production by atmospheric pressure plasmas to drive H2O2-dependent enzymatic reactions. Having previously established plasma-driven biocatalysis using recombinant unspecific peroxygenase from...
Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasmas have an antiseptic activity beneficial in different medical applications. In a genome-wide screening, hydrogen peroxide and superoxide were identified as key species contributing to the antibacterial...
Hydrogen is often envisioned as a green fuel and energy carrier. However, a greenhouse gas-free production method is still needed for this purpose. A promising method is the pyrolysis of methane. Here, we present the 3-dimensional simulation of...
Pyrolysis of methane is a promising, new, greenhouse gas-free production method of hydrogen. Here, we present optical emission spectra of a microwave plasma torch operated in an argon methane mixture. Detailed spatial resolution is achieved by...
The transportation of plasma-generated species through a liquid environment is a key step within the plasma-driven biocatalysis process, but is also of great importance for other systems with plasma-liquid interfaces. The aim of this study is to...
High-frequency technological low-temperature plasmas play a key role in various industrial processes of high societal relevance such as semiconductor manufacturing and gas conversion. Due to their complexity, the fundamentals of their operation...
A low-pressure double-inductively coupled plasma device is used to study the fundamental plasma parameters, plasma chemistry, and UV photon emission from the first excited state of nitric oxide, NO(A), in gas mixtures of nitrogen and oxygen. In...
Atmospheric plasma jets enable the precise generation and transport of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) to a designated target, making them particularly valuable for applications in plasma medicine. In these contexts, it is crucial to...
