Dual-Discharge Mode for Enhanced Plasma Activated Water Production: Optimizing RONS Generation and Energy Efficiency
摘要
The production of plasma activated water (PAW) enriched with reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) is a prerequisite for high-efficient application of PAW in chemical fields. To address the limitations of conventional single-electrode PAW systems, this study designs a PAW generator with a dual-discharge mode consisting of an upper - liquid electrode and a submerged electrode to effectively compensate for the low mass - transfer efficiency of the upper - liquid discharge mode and the instability of the products in the under - liquid discharge mode, thereby improving the discharge stability. The upper - liquid electrode adopts a four - needle T - shaped structure to adapt to the turbulent liquid surface, while the submerged electrode is covered in a quartz tube to ensure stable plasma discharge.
