Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel plasma driven catalyst apparatus for disinfecting and purifying air. The apparatus has a synergistically favorable effect from plasma and catalyst on high disinfecting and purifying efficiency and efficacy, low by-product formation, and low energy consumption. The plasma combined with catalyst enhances the production of new active species, increases the oxidizing power of the plasma discharge, as well as activate the catalyst that additionally contributes towards the disinfection and purification process and the elimination of toxic by-products.
