Low-Temperature Plasma Chemical Engineering bridges the gap between the plasma and chemical engineering community and covers both the fundamentals and applications of plasma chemical engineering technologies, including but not limited to the principles and mechanisms of plasma process intensification, novel plasma reactor/process design and process optimization, and different applications.The book covers a wide range of plasma chemical processes such as oxidation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), methane reforming, CO2 conversion, biomass tar reforming, nitrogen fixation, plasma agriculture, plasma biotechnology, advanced oxidation processes, organic synthesis in microchannel reactors, electrostatic precipitation, plasma pyrolysis of coal into acetylene, synthesis of nanomaterials and ultrafine powders, and solid waste treatment. The book brings together state-of-the-art research and development in relationship with advanced low-temperature plasma chemical engineering technologies as well as the challenges and future perspectives in this emerging area. Low-Temperature Plasma Chemical Engineering is valuable resource or reference for scientists, engineers, technicians and students with different research backgrounds including plasma physics, plasma chemistry, chemical engineering, energy engineering, materials science and engineering, environmental engineering and electrical engineering.

Cheng, Yi
Prof. Yi Cheng?received his B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Chemical Engineering from Tsinghua University in 1994 and 2000.?He worked as a research fellow at Delft University of Technology (11/1998-11/2000), and then as a postdoc research associate at University of Western Ontario (02/2001-03/2003). In March 2003, he joined Tsinghua University as an associate professor, and was promoted to full professor in December 2007. His research interests lie in the field of multiphase reactor engineering in relation to the applications for energy, environment and materials, especially using unconventional means of process intensification (i.e., plasmas and confined micro-channel or micro-droplets) to solve reaction engineering problems.
