“…Among various options, the non-thermal or cold plasma process has been known to overcome the disadvantages of conventional AOP. Cold plasma is known to cause a variety of oxidative and chemical species, such as radicals (e.g., H•, O•, and OH• ) and molecules (e.g., H 2 O 2 and O 3 ), shock waves, ultraviolet, and electrohydraulic cavitation [13,[20][21][22][23]. In addition, the cold plasma process is considered to be a process combining the advantages of other AOPs, and has relatively few constraints on temperature and pressure [24][25][26].…”

Algal bloom significantly alters the physicochemical properties of water due to drastic pH change, dissolved oxygen depletion/super-saturation, and toxicity, which lead to ecosystem destruction. To prevent this, this study evaluated the reduction performance of algal biomass by applying a non-thermal or cold plasma process. We used chlorophyll-a (chl-a), suspended solids (SS), and turbidity as indicators of the biomass. Results demonstrated that their removal efficiencies were in the ranges 88–98%, 70%–90%, and 53%–91%, respectively. Field emission scanning electron microscopy indicated how the cell wall of microalgae was destroyed by cold plasma. Also, the removal kinetics of cold plasma confirmed the enhanced removal rate constants. The estimated required times for 99% removal were 0.4–1.2 d (chl-a), 1.3–3.4 d (SS), and 1.6–6.2 d (turbidity), respectively. Overall, cold plasma could be a useful option to effectively treat pollution associated with algal bloom in surface water.

“…A slightly different configuration, with the gas blown through a tube containing the high voltage needle electrode has also been used (He et al 2014(He et al , 2015Hu et al 2019). Several authors produce plasma in the gas and bubble the effluent gas through the solution to be treated (Kim et al 2013;Kim et al 2015;Lee et al 2018;Tang et al 2018aTang et al , b, 2019Wang et al 2019c;Li et al 2020). It is unlikely that highly reactive species with short lifetime would reach the liquid, so in this case plasma is simply used as a source of ozone.…”

“…NTP has also shown synergistic effects with micro pollutant adsorption in the decomposition of pesticides in waste water such as atrazine, which can be released from animal husbandry (58). Moreover, NTP can be used to degrade sulfonamide antibiotics in waste water (66). Sulfonamides are widely used in veterinary medicine practices as effective chemotherapeutics for protozoan and bacterial infections.…”

“…Therefore, it is necessary to degrade the sulfonamides in waste water. A previous study has introduced an aerationassisted NTP to degrade these non-biodegradable sulfonamides (66). According to another study, NTP mineralizes organic pollutants in waste water such as Irgarol 1051 which is an algaecide found in antifouling paints (68).…”

Infrastructure in animal husbandry refers to fundamental facilities and services necessary for better living conditions of animals and its economy to function through better productivity. Mainly, infrastructure can be divided into two categories: hard infrastructure and soft infrastructure. Physical infrastructure, such as buildings, roads, and water supplying systems, belongs to hard infrastructure. Soft infrastructure includes services which are required to maintain economic, health, cultural and social standards of animal husbandry. Therefore, the proper management of infrastructure in animal husbandry is necessary for animal welfare and its economy. Among various technologies to improve the quality of infrastructure, non-thermal plasma (NTP) technology is an effectively applicable technology in different stages of animal husbandry. NTP is mainly helpful in maintaining better health conditions of animals in several ways via decontamination from microorganisms present in air, water, food, instruments and surfaces of animal farming systems. Furthermore, NTP is used in the treatment of waste water, vaccine production, wound healing in animals, odorfree ventilation, and packaging of animal food or animal products. This review summarizes the recent studies of NTP which can be related to the infrastructure in animal husbandry.
