This book introduces a new technology for environmental protection, namely plasma cleaning. It brings together technological advances and research on plasma generators and their application in environmental science and engineering, including contaminated soil remediation, waste water degradation, metal recovery from waste solution, sterilization and polluted air remediation. It provides a balanced and comprehensive discussion of the core principles, novel plasma reactors and diagnostics, and state-of-the-art environmental applications of plasma. As such, it represents a valuable reference guide for scientists, engineers and graduate students in the fields of environmental science and plasma physics.

Environmental Application of Plasma Technique.- Remediation of Phenanthrene Contaminated Soil using Plasma Fluidized Bed.- Degradation and discoloration of Dyes Solution using Plasma in Combination with Advanced Fenton Catalysis.- Reduction of Cr(VI) in Aqueous Solution with Microplasma.- Surface Sterilization by Atmospheric Pressure Non–Thermal Plasma.- Removal of Volatile Organic Compounds using Plasma.

Prof. ChangMing Du received Ph.D. degree in 2006 from ZheJiang University. He is currently an Associate Professor of the School of Environmental Science and Engineering, Sun Yat-Sen University, China, working on plasma environmental technology, waste treatment and reusing technology. He is skilled in equipment manufacturing and product innovation. He has hosted/taken part in 25 scientific research projects and built up industrial/pilot 6 demonstration facilities. He has applied for 80 patents, and published 3 monographs. 

His research was published by the international journals such as Chemical reviews, Scientific Reports, Applied Energy, Applied Catalysis B: Environmental, International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, Journal of Hazardous Materials. He has contributed more than 85 journal papers, 53 of which have been recorded in SCI. 

Prof. Du has been engaged in investigations on plasma environmental protection and plasma energy conversion for the past 12 years. By studying the physical, chemical and biophysical processes involved in plasma-assisted environmental applications, he has contributed to the identification and quantitative evaluation of the plasma agents, theoretical and technological systems for plasma catalysis, plasma integrated purification and hydrogen production from wastes via plasma. He has also designed a series of novel plasma generators and independently developed a range of novel plasma-assisted environment-protection equipment. He has published 65 academic papers, more than 40 of which have been recorded in SCI (with 136 SCI Total Impact Points, 297 other Citations and an H index of 13). Since 2010, he has published one monograph independently, has applied for 46 invention patents independently, and has published 26 SCI papers, 12 of which were signed by the applicant as the first/corresponding author (which have been received by many international journals such as Chem Rev (1 paper, SCI IF=46.568).
