A comparative study of non-thermal plasma Glidarc reactors

The present work is mainly focused on the comparison of different non-thermal plasma reactors, Glidarc type. The investigations of the effects on the reactive species produced by the technologies using cold plasma electrical discharges, as an alternative to classical electrochemical technologies, focused on the effects on the reactive species produced and on the soluble organic compounds destruction have been studied. On the basis of specific laboratory investigations regarding the electrical performances and organic compounds removal from water, the specific energy efficiency have been also considerate.
