This book introduces a new technology for environmental protection,
namely plasma cleaning. It brings together technological advances and
research on plasma generators and their application in environmental
science and engineering, including contaminated soil remediation, waste
water degradation, metal recovery from waste solution, sterilization and
polluted air remediation. It provides a balanced and comprehensive
discussion of the core principles, novel plasma reactors and
diagnostics, and state-of-the-art environmental applications of plasma.
As such, it represents a valuable reference guide for scientists,
engineers and graduate students in the fields of environmental science
and plasma physics.
