Abstract :
Summary form only given, as follows. In present work, the research on the several metal oxide catalysts for decomposition of VOCs and NO/sub x/ was introduced and plasma reactor was combined to investigate the effects of catalytic activity. Wire-cylinder type plasma reactor using pulse power supply was used and several kinds of catalysts were studied. It was found that plasma treatment significantly increases the removal effect of catalysts.
