Atmospheric-pressure, non-equilibrium plasmas are susceptible to instabilities and, in
particular, to arcing (glow-to-arc transition). Spatially confining the plasma to dimensions of 1 …

Hydrogen is widely regarded as an ideal energy source, while the difficulties related to
storage and transportation restricted its affordable employments. Ammonia, as a zero …

A numerical simulation of a dc microplasma discharge in helium at atmospheric pressure
was performed based on a one-dimensional fluid model. The microdischarge was found to …

Complex plasmas differ from traditional plasmas in many ways: these are low-temperature
high pressure systems containing nanometer to micrometer size particles which may be …

Ammonia is a promising energy and hydrogen carrier due to its ease of liquification, high
hydrogen content, and potential to be synthesized without carbon feedstocks. Despite its …

Optical emission spectroscopy measurements were performed with added trace probe
gases in an atmospheric pressure direct current helium microplasma. Spatially resolved …

Owing to the storage and transportation problems of hydrogen fuel, exploring new methods
of the real-time hydrogen production from ammonia becomes attractive. In this paper, non …

An atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) in Ar/NH3 (0.1–10%) mixtures
with a parallel plate electrode geometry was studied. The plasma was investigated by …

Due to the difficulty of H 2 storage, development of real time H 2 generators would be
advantageous for portable fuel cells. In this paper, the real time production of H 2 using …

This paper reports an experimental study on dissociating carbon dioxide (CO 2) using a
microhollow cathode discharge (MHCD) plasma reactor operated at 1 atm. The MHCD …
