surface decontamination by dielectric barrier discharge plasma
Authors
abstract
background: dielectric barrier discharge (dbd), a source of non-thermal plasma, is used in surface decontamination. objective: to study the effect of dbd plasma treatment, we evaluated the effect of plasma exposure time on inactivation of bacillus subtilis. results: applying the dbd plasma to the culture of b. subtilis caused complete sterilization of the surface without any thermal effects. in addition, the inactivated colony-forming units increased as the exposure time rises. conclusion: considering the low temperature and non-destructive features of this method, it seems that this method is applicable for fast sterilization of resistant bacteria and hospital sensitive instruments.

full textModeling of Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma Actuator
Glow discharge at atmospheric pressure using a dielectric barrier discharge can induce fluid flow, and operate as an actuator for flow control. In this paper, we simulate the physics of a 2-D asymmetric actuator operating in Helium gas using a high-fidelity first principles-based numerical modeling approach to help improve our understanding of the physical mechanisms associated with such actuat...

Plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) at atmospheric pressure becomes a promising technology. The objective of the present work is to develop technique for deposition of thin films with desired properties on paper surface by means of atmospheric pressure discharge. The depositions were carried out by the means of surface discharge at atmospheric pressure. The films were deposited f...
full textCharacteristics of Ozone Generated from Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma Actuators
Abstract—Dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuators (DBD-PAs) have been developed for active flow control devices. However, it is necessary to reduce ozone produced by DBD toward practical applications using DBD-PAs. In this study, variations of ozone concentration, flow velocity, power consumption were investigated by changing exposed electrodes of DBD-PAs. Two exposed electrode prototypes ...
full textDecomposition of L-valine under nonthermal dielectric barrier discharge plasma.
L-Valine solutions in water and phosphate buffer were treated with nonthermal plasma generated by using a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) device and the products generated after plasma treatments were characterized by (1)H NMR and GC-MS. Our results demonstrate that L-valine is decomposed to acetone, formic acid, acetic acid, threo-methylaspartic acid, erythro-methlyaspartic acid, and pyruvi...
full textDecomposition of sugars under non-thermal dielectric barrier discharge plasma
Solutions of ribose, glucose, and sucrose in water and phosphate buffer were treated with non-thermal plasma generated by using a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) device and the oxidation products were characterized by H NMR and GC–MS. Our results demonstrate that these sugars are decomposed to formic acid, glycolic acid, glyceric acid, tartronic acid, tartaric acid, acetic acid, and oxalic a...
