Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Decomposition of acetic acid in water using plasma on gas-liquid interface and numerical simulation of reactions considering flows and mass transfer were conducted. It was revealed that the gas flow generated by an electrohydrodynamic effect was not effective to enhance the mass transfer of OH radical and hydrogen peroxide transferred to the solution restrained the decomposition of acetic acid. The addition of ozone into the solution seemed to be effective because OH radical can be re-generated by a reaction between ozone and hydrogen peroxide. The selectivity in generations of OH radical and hydrogen peroxide or ozone has been enhanced by controlling the input power to plasma generated in gas bubbles. It is expected that multiple generation of the plasmas at different powers achieves highly efficient decomposition system of organic compounds in water.
