Principles and Characteristics of Cold Plasma at Gas Phase and Gas-Liquid Phase

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Applications of Cold Plasma in Food Safety

Abstract

Atmospheric pressure cold plasma is considered to have broad application prospects in different fields, such as plasma agriculture, food preservation, material preparation, and plasma medicine. This chapter presents the generation and characteristics of typical plasma sources that are suitable for different applications. Secondly, advances in plasma diagnostic techniques, plasma modeling, and simulations about gas phase, gas-liquid phase, and liquid phase are introduced in detail. The diagnostic results may offer the valid input to model calculations or validate the correctness of the simulation. Plasma simulation may provide some useful clues on the basic characteristics and kinetic reaction processes of plasma-liquid interaction. Thirdly, the formation mechanisms and physicochemical processes of reactive species coupled with the plasma liquid interaction are summarized. The main contents of this chapter will provide support for the efficient production of reactive species in gas phase and subsequently in liquid phase to meet the requirements of different low-temperature plasma applications.
