Plasma for Energy and Environmental Applications

Tuesday, March 23, 2010: 2:00 PM
Travis A/B (Grand Hyatt San Antonio)

Description:
This symposium will focus on the use of plasma for energy and environmental applications. Topics of interest will include, but are not limited to the following: • Plasma-assisted reforming to produce hydrogen-rich synthesis gas • CO2 conversion or decomposition • Coal, biomass, or solid waste gasification • Plasma for diesel exhaust treatment • Plasma-assisted combustion • NOx, SOx, VOC, or ammonia removal/decomposition • Fuel cleanup – desulfurization, tar cracking, etc. • H2S decomposition • Plasma-assisted heterogeneous catalysis for energy and environmental applications
