Plasma catalytic abatement of chlorinated VOCs. Ghent University
This project studies the abatement of a chlorinated volatile organic compound (VOC), perschloroethylene with atmospheric pressure plasma technoogy combined with heterogeneous catalysis. Perchloroethylene is carcinogenic but is still used in the dry cleaning business due to he lack of an appropriate alternative. The aim of this project is to reduce the emission of PERC wiht plasma catalysis.
Methane valorization using catalytic plasma reactor technology Ghent University
In this project non-thermal plasma reactor technology will be implemented in order to convert rich in methane gas streams into valuable chamicals for the petrochemical industry, such as olefins and aromatics. The new process will be more versatile and energy and resourse effient compared to the convetional thermal process.
Can a combination of isotopic analysis of Fe, Cu and Zn using multi-collector inductively coupled plasma - mass spectrometry and chemometric analysis be used for diagnosis of metal-related diseases? Ghent University
Isotopic analysis of the essential transition metals Fe, Cu and Zn in human blood via multi-collector ICP-MS after their chemical isolation. Characterization of the spread in the isotope ratios of Fe, Cu and Zn in the reference population and identification of the governing factors. Comparison of the isotopic composition of Fe, Cu and Zn in blood from the reference population to the corresponding values in patient populations. Evaluation of ...
Post-plasma catalysis for VOC removal Ghent University
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) are harmful for
humans and the environment and they occur in certain waste streams. In this project, this problem is tackled by the combination of a non-thermal plasma and a catalyst. The abatement of trichloroethylene and toluene is studied in a
plasma catalytic reactor.
