Interaction of Plasma with Liquid Micro-Droplets: A Model for Plasma Induced Reactivity in Liquid Water

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

The interaction of atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium plasmas with a liquid phase is a complex multiphase phenomenon, underpinning many novel applications. This is possible due to the reactivity transfer from the gas phase plasma to the bulk liquid phase. However, this reactivity transfer is highly transport limited as many plasma-produced short-lived species will react in the gas phase or near the plasma-liquid interface before reaching the bulk liquid. Reactions for highly reactive species such as OH occur often predominantly at or near the plasma-liquid interfacial region 1.
