Kinetic processes and plasma remediation of toxic gases
type: CreativeWork
description: Regulations on the allowable emissions of toxic gases have resulted in increasing industrial interest in the development of energy efficient methods for remediation. In this work we computationally study the application of Dielectric Barrier Discharges to the remediation of perchloroethylene (C$\sb2$Cl$\sb4$ or PCE) and N$\rm\sb{x}$O$\rm\sb{y}$. We determine the kinetic processes that occur in remediation in order to devise methods for improving the energy efficiency of remediation.
