The disclosure herein describes a method for producing ammonia by introducing N, CO and water into a non-thermal plasma in the presence of a catalyst, the catalyst being effective to promote the disassociation of N, CO and water to form reactants that in turn react to produce NHand CH. This disclosure also describes producing a reactive hydrogen ion or free radical by the method comprising passing water through a non-thermal plasma in the presence of a catalyst, the catalyst being effective to promote the dissociation of water.

Non-thermal plasma synthesis with carbon component

A method and apparatus are provided for at least partially disinfecting biological fluid of a mammal, which comprises pathogens in addition to normal cellular fractions. The method includes placing the biological fluid in a reaction volume and contacting a non-thermal plasma with the biological fluid to thereby kill at least a portion of the pathogens within the biological fluid.

Non-thermal disinfection of biological fluids using non-thermal plasma

A non-thermal plasma reactor is provided for treating a liquid with non-thermal plasma species. The reactor includes a liquid inlet, a liquid outlet, a reaction volume between the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet and at least one non-thermal plasma electrode adjacent to the reaction volume. The non-thermal plasma electrode is isolated physically and electrically from the flow path by a dielectric barrier.
