A method and system to treat emissions (e.g., smoke, particulate, odor, grease) employs a nanosecond high voltage pulse generator, a transient pulsed plasma reactor, and a DC voltage source that supplies a DC bias voltage, preferably a negative DC bias voltage to a conductor of the transient pulsed plasma reactor.

Both a reduction in the size distribution and total particulate mass is achieved using the method and system described herein.

A compact cylindrical vacuum chamber made from a dielectric ceramic or glass wrapped with a cylindrical electrode connected to an RF source make a hollow cathode RF plasma source. The dielectric cylinder is used as the vacuum container with the conductive electrode outside the vacuum region to excite plasma inside. A gas is supplied by a gas source at low flow on one end of the cylinder and after being excited exhausts into a connected vacuum chamber carrying excited metastables and radicals. RF power is applied to the electrode to excite the plasma via the hollow cathode effect. This remote RF plasma source can be used to create ions, electrons, excited metastables, and atomic radicals for use downstream depending on choices of gas, pressure, flow rates, RF power and frequency, and extraction electrodes.

The Diffusive Plasma is for effective treatment of contaminated air and material processing. Air is purified and disinfected by passing through the diffusive plasma device which includes a reactor or a plurality of reactors arranged in parallel or series and is energized by a high voltage alternating current power supply. The diffuser, being electrically isolated, provides extra nucleation sites to initiate discharges. It serves to improve the generation of uniform and consistent plasma and to reduce the variation of discharge properties among the reactors. The addition of a diffuser, thereby, enhances the overall effectiveness of decomposing chemicals and destroying microbes to achieve high air treatment and material processing performance. The diffuser can be made of suitable filtering materials to additionally serve as a filter. By incorporating suitable catalytic materials with the diffuser, the reactor becomes a catalytic plasma reactor wherein the plasma environment provides enhanced catalytic functions. Effective plasma power deposition may be obtained by controlling the amplitude, waveform period and shape of the voltage applied to the electrodes of the reactor and hence the operation of the reactors with plasma discharged of selected conditions for optimizing the treatment and processing efficiency while minimizing the generation of unwanted bi-product gases. The present invention also relates to a method for effective air treatment and material processing.
