Abstract

Nonthermal plasmas (NTPs) can be generated using relatively low input energy and they can produce high concentrations of chemically active species at temperatures that do not alter the thermodynamic equilibrium of a reaction, which is why they have found application as promoters for a variety of different chemical reactions. The performance of NTP-promoted chemical reactions can be enhanced by combining the plasmas with catalysts, which results from synergetic effects from interactions between the catalyst and the plasma. Although these effects are not completely understood, they have been exploited by combining different NTPs and catalysts using a plethora of reactor configurations for an even greater number of reactions. This chapter outlines some of the underlying principles of plasma chemistry, introduces some of the most important NTPs used in plasma-chemical and plasma-catalytic reactions, and explores some of the different reactor configurations used for plasma-catalytic reactions.
