Plasma Chemistry and Plasma Processing

Plasma treatment of water and wastewater is an emerging technology for advanced water purification and remediation. It involves using non-equilibrium plasma to generate reactive species like radicals, ions, and UV photons that can effectively degrade organic pollutants and destroy harmful microorganisms in water. Plasma treatment offers advantages like rapid and selective pollutant removal, no chemical additives, and minimal harmful byproducts. It finds applications in treating industrial wastewater, removing emerging contaminants, and disinfecting water for safe reuse. Plasma-based water treatment shows great potential in addressing water scarcity and environmental challenges, providing an innovative and sustainable approach to water management.
