Plasma Catalysis

Plasma catalysis is a process that combines a special state of matter called plasma—an energized, ionized gas—with catalysts to efficiently speed up chemical reactions. In this setup, plasma provides energetic particles that activate molecules, making reactions occur at lower temperatures and with less energy. The catalyst helps guide these reactions toward desired products, improving efficiency and selectivity. This approach is useful in environmental applications like pollution control and sustainable fuel production, offering a cleaner, more energy-efficient way to convert or break down substances compared to traditional methods.
