Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Feasibility on efficient discharge plasma nitrogen fixation is experimentally studied toward sustainable nitrogen fixation using air, water, and renewable energy sources. This research realizes a non-self-sustaining discharge plasma source, enabling electric field suitable for efficient nitrogen fixation processes. In addition, experimental measure for plasma gas-liquid interface characterization has been proposed.
