Abstract

Hydrogen peroxide production was studied in an atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge device. The discharge atmosphere was an argon/oxygen gas mixture of variable ratio with water vapor adjunction; H2O2 measurements were performed in liquid water droplets or films submitted to the post discharge effluent. With a coaxial reactor allowing an easy scaling, a parametric study has been performed with an argon and water vapor discharge plasma, taking in account the gas flow rate, the water content of this gas flow and the input power. Our best results on H2O2 production (800 ppm, 1.7 g.kWh-1) were obtained with 10 min runs in this reactor.
