Abstract
The electron temperature ( T e) of positive dc corona plasma in Ar/O 2 atmosphere was diagnosed, and plasma decomposition of toluene/benzene was studied in a razor–plate reactor. Experimental results revealed that T e would increase with corona current until it reached a peak value, and then decrease; the volume fraction of Ar ( φ Ar) in Ar/O 2 mixed gas also influenced T e, the higher φ Ar, the lower T e. Though the decomposed volume fraction of toluene/benzene was positively related to the input power, the decomposition efficiency did not monotonically increase with the specific energy density. The highest energy yield reached 3.8 g-toluene/kWh and 2.4 g-benzene/kWh, respectively.
