Investigation of the Effect of Pulsed Direct Current on Methane Conversion and Reforming in a Point-to-Point Plasma Discharge Microreactor

Creator:

Shareghi, Adam E. L.

Abstract:

Stranded natural gas and biogas comprise a vast energy resource that is mostly wasted via flaring. This represents an opportunity to investigate novel ways to harness this resource. Nonthermal plasmas consist of excited electrons, ions and neutral atoms/molecules that have the ability to disrupt chemical bonds at ambient temperatures and...
