Filling the gap for a book that not only covers gases but also plasma methods in liquids, this is all set to become the standard reference on the topic. It considers the central aspects in plasma chemistry and plasma catalysis by focusing on the green and environmental applications, while also taking into account their practical and economic viability.
With the topics addressed by an international group of major experts, this is a must-have for researchers, PhD students and postdocs specializing in the field.Content:
