Abstract
⺠Roles of various plasma species in plasma and plasma-catalytic removal of formaldehyde (HCHO) in air were studied. ⺠Both short- and long-living plasma species contribute to HCHO removal in gas phase. ⺠O3 does not initiate HCHO removal in gas phase but does over MnOx/Al2O3 catalyst. ⺠O3 initiated catalytic reactions are mainly responsible for the enhanced HCHO removal by plasma-catalysis. ⺠The presence of downstream MnOx/Al2O3 catalyst greatly reduces the emission of discharge byproducts (O3) and organic intermediates (HCOOH).
