Abstract

This paper critically reviews the non-thermal plasma techniques for reduction of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in air streams. The currently used technologies fall into two categories: those based on nonthermal plasma generated from various forms of corona discharge and those exploiting high energy electron beams. Relative advantages and disadvantages of non-thermal plasma and conventional techniques are discussed.
