Abstract A method for determining the relative reactivity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) with respect to the air plasma of a pulsed corona discharge is proposed. It is based on the use of specially selected mixtures of organic compounds. The approach is based on the method of competing reactions: all components of the mixture are in equal conditions, so the relative reactivity can be determined with high accuracy using the gas chromatography. The parameters of scaling processes are proposed – plasma chemical yield, relative reactivity, formal reagent as a set of plasma components. In this paper, using the example of a number of VOCs, we demonstrate the extended capabilities of the method using a special technique for processing experimental data. More accurate data on the relative reactivity of a number of VOCs of wide application have been obtained. It is proposed to use the energy yield of ozone as a criterion for the energy efficiency of a plasma chemical installation.

AbstractThis contribution reports investigations on a pulsed corona discharge in multipoint-to-plate configuration, with the aim of total oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOC), in particular toluene. Both long pulses (1-2 ms), and short pulses (100 ns) were used. Much higher discharge currents (6-8 A) and energy per pulse (8-15 mJ) were obtained when using the short pulses, as compared to the values for long pulses (0.5 A , 1.5 mJ). Preliminary experiments in mixtures of air and toluene showed toluene conversion in the plasma of 25-30%, with CO
