Abstract

Plasma technology is well known since more than one century ago. Non-thermal assisted plasma technology is widely used for industrial applications and put great impact in several fields. Non-thermal assisted plasma technology is widely used for neon lights, food perseverance, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, surgery/medical fields and widely for waste water treatment (ozone produced through cold plasma could be used for ozonation). The literature completely depicts as plasma applications are widespread and are surviving very well. But the non-thermal plasma assisted chemical synthesis is still stagnant and limited to laboratory scale. So, in this review we briefly discussed reasons of analysis behind unsuccessful chemical synthesis exposure at large scale and discussed a detail proposed strategy based on developments as modelling & simulation, miniaturized corona-DBD plasma reactor packed with ferroelectric material, robust continuous variable power supply with an automatic matching network (to control power, voltage, frequency and current) and alloy materials that could endure plasma ignition conditions for non-thermal assisted plasma chemical synthesis.
