We investigate discharge contraction in a microwave plasma at sub-atmospheric pressure,
operating in CO 2 and CO 2/CH 4 mixtures. The rise of the electron number density with …

In this paper, 3D, turbulent fluid models of a CO 2, forward vortex, microwave plasma are
presented. The high temperature (3000–7000 K), heterogeneous plasma is modelled as a …

Reduction of CO2 to CO for sustainable fuel production is studied in high-temperature (>
3500 K) microwave plasma. Raman scattering and chemical kinetics modeling reveal …

Oxygen exchange kinetics in CO2–O2 and CO–O2 low-temperature RF plasmas are
investigated by isotope tracing. Starting from C16O2–18O2 and C16O–18O2 gas mixtures …

This work investigates kinetics and transport of CO 2 microwave plasmas through simulation
results from a 1D radial fluid model and experiments. Simulation results are validated …

This work investigates energy transfers between electrons, vibrational and translational
degrees of freedom and their effect on dissociation mechanisms in a N 2 microwave plasma …

Thermalization of electron and gas temperature in CO2 microwave plasma is unveiled with
the first Thomson scattering measurements. The results contradict the prevalent picture of an …

A method is proposed to spatially resolve discharge parameters from experimental
measurements of emission intensity and 1D numerical simulations including an O atom …

Carbon monoxide flame band emission (CO+ O→ CO 2+ hν) in CO 2 microwave plasma is
quantified by obtaining absolute calibrated emission spectra at various locations in the …

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states that some of the greatest
global challenges are related to energy and environmental problems [1]. Moreover, there is …
