NON-THERMAL PLASMA ASSISTED BIOMASS SYNTHEIS

A system namely non thermal plasma system was developed to reduce tar or pollutant laden gases. The system generates non-thermal plasma via a dielectric barrier discharge reactor coupled to syngas produced from biomass gasifiers or other gases containing pollutants. The system also consists of a high voltage generator system. Non-thermal plasma is a phenomenon where atoms and molecules are excited to a higher energy level at room temperature.
