Degradation of diuron in aqueous solution by dielectric barrier discharge

Disinfection Performance against Salmonella Typhi in Water by Radio Frequency Inductive Couple Plasma System

“…These active species can dissolve into the solution and further degrade pollutants via oxidation processes [15,16]. In addition, UV light and shock waves produced by the plasma discharges may also play a role in the degradation of pollutants and the disinfection of microorganisms in aqueous solutions [15,17]. The disinfection efficiency (DE) of microorganisms depends on the interaction between pathogenic bacteria and colloidal particles, as reported by Chiemchaisri, et al [7].…”

Behavior of microorganisms in drinking water treatment by inductively coupled plasma system: Case study in ground water

“…In another study, the degradation of organic carbon and disinfection of pathogenic bacteria depended on UV light and shock waves produced by plasma discharges [15,16,17]. Chiemchaisri et al [18] found an RE with respect to FC in the range of 96-98% and an RE with respect to TC in the range of 52-98% using process floating media filter-microfiltration combined with coagulation [18].…”

Degradation of bromophenol blue molecule during argon plasma jet irradiation

“…Sugiarto et al have investigated degradation of organic dyes by the pulsed discharge plasma in contaminated water in three discharge modes including streamer, spark, and spark-streamer mixed modes [17]. One of the most interesting topics, in recent years, has been studying degradation of different materials in aqueous solution such as degradation of methyl orange [18], methyl violet [19], phenol [20], methanol [21], diuron [22], 1-naphthylamine [23], pharmaceutical compound pentoxifylline [24], organophosphate pesticides [25], antibiotics [26], textile dyes [27], etc. In such studies, scientists are interested in investigating the effects of various parameters such as pH [28] and temperature [29] on the plasma-treatment process.…”
