Design and Characterisation of Rotating Gliding Arc Reactor for Dilute Hydrocarbon Conversion Applications: Experiments and Simulations Studies
In recent years, non-thermal plasma technology is becoming popular for chemical applications involving conversion/abatement/decomposition of compounds of interest. The specialty of non-thermal plasmas is to activate chemical ... -
Design and Characterization of a Pin-to-Water Plasma Reactor Setup for the Generation of High Strength Plasma Activated Water
Plasma-activated water (PAW), generated by non-thermal atmospheric plasma interaction with water, has emerged as a promising solution due to its potent antimicrobial, antitumor, and nitrogen fixation properties, with ... -
Effect of Flow Regime on Performance of Rotating Gliding Arc Reactor: Experimental and Simulation Studies
Non-thermal plasma (NTP) technology offers a promising approach for pollutant abatement, gas conversion, and plasma-assisted combustion (PAC) by enabling reactions under atmospheric conditions, bypassing thermodynamic ... -
Foaming of Surface Waterbodies: A Comprehensive Study on Causes, Persistence, Seasonality, and Mitigation Strategies
Foaming waterbodies have emerged as a significant global concern due to their adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems, offensive odour emissions, disruption of daily activities in nearby areas, and visual unpleasantness. ... -
Investigations into the Thermo-chemical Conversion of Simulated Refuse Derived Fuels with Different Plastic Contents
The burgeoning problem of municipal waste generation along with its disposal problem has urged the development of sustainable waste management practices such as waste-to-energy conversion. Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) represents ... -
Methanol Synthesis from Simulated Bio-syngas: Experimental and Modeling Studies
Methanol is increasingly being considered as an alternative fuel due to its potential to reduce environmental pollution and its ability to be used directly in internal combustion engines without any engine modification. ... -
Multi-component Gas Mixture Separation: Fundamental Studies to Pilot Scale Development and Characterization
Climate change has become one of the significant challenges of the 21st century resulting in increased demand for low-carbon energy carriers to achieve a sustainable future. Thermo-chemical conversion of environmentally ... -
Preliminary Investigation into the Cold Plasma Powered Water Gas Shift Reaction – Experiments And Analysis
Water gas shift reaction (CO + H2O ↔ H2 + CO2) is a CO oxidation reaction in the presence of steam resulting in the formation of H2 and CO2. Traditionally, water gas shift (WGS) reaction is achieved using multiple catalytic ...
