A Device for Biological Activation of Aqueous Solutions Using Glow Discharge Plasma in Water Vapor

A prototype device for biological activation of aqueous solutions is presented. The activation is carried out using non-equilibrium (electrolyte) plasma generated by high-frequency glow discharge in water vapor at atmospheric pressure. The structure and functional features of the device are describe...

Description
Summary:A prototype device for biological activation of aqueous solutions is presented. The activation is carried out using non-equilibrium (electrolyte) plasma generated by high-frequency glow discharge in water vapor at atmospheric pressure. The structure and functional features of the device are described. The results of investigation tests are presented, including the ranges of the main electrochemical parameters of activated aqueous solutions. It is shown that the activation of aqueous solutions with glow discharge electrolyte plasma is a low-cost procedure that can be implemented under laboratory or field conditions using a small-size device.
