Abstract: A photocatalytic reactor includes a polymeric side-emitting optical fiber having a coating with a photocatalyst embedded in a porous polymer, a light source optically coupled to the polymeric side-emitting optical fiber and configured to irradiate the photocatalyst, and a multiplicity of oxygen-permeable hollow-fiber membranes. The polymeric side-emitting optical fiber and the multiplicity of oxygen-permeable hollow-fiber membranes are configured to be at least partially immersed in water. When at least partially immersed in water, the multiplicity of oxygen-permeable hollow-fiber membranes is configured to provide dissolved molecular oxygen to the water, and the coating is configured to allow diffusion of the dissolved molecular oxygen into the coating and to allow diffusion of hydrogen peroxide out of the coating.

Abstract: The invention relates to inorganic chemistry, peroxides and agriculture, plant cultivation, medicine, sanitation and hygiene. The method and device for producing an environmentally friendly solution of hydrogen peroxide from water with a concentration exceeding the natural one in a reactor filled with water, consist in the fact that an electrode made of an electrically conducting material is installed above the water surface. The electrode is connected to the high-voltage terminal of a Tesla resonant transformer, and an electrode is supplied electric energy from a Tesla transformer with a voltage of 1-1000 kV and a frequency of 1-1500 kHz. The streamers of an electric discharge between the electrode, the air and the water surface are created with the formation of hydrogen peroxide in the water. While the reactor of closed or open types contains connecting pipes for supplying water and draining the hydrogen peroxide solution, which is intended for sanitization without dilution, disinfection and disinsection, and after dilution to a natural concentration, stimulates the growth and the development of plants.
An environmentally friendly solution of hydrogen peroxide of natural concentration can be used to increase the yield of cereals, melons and vegetables, as well as gardens and vineyards. The use of the obtained environmentally friendly solution of hydrogen peroxide is possible in medical practice for internal use.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a porous carbon material doped with a heterogeneous element and a porous carbon material doped with a heterogeneous element manufactured using the method are proposed. The method includes melting carbon precursor powder that contains one or more kinds of heterogeneous elements selected from metal and nonmetal to prepare a precursor melt; disposing a pair of metal wires in the precursor melt; and applying power to the metal wires to perform plasma-discharge, thus forming and aggregating carbon nanoparticles doped with the heterogeneous element while having a micropore and thereby forming a porous carbon material having a meso-macro hierarchical pore structure. As the heterogeneous element is bound to carbon of the carbon precursor, the carbon nanoparticles are formed in an amorphous structure while being doped with the heterogeneous element, thus increasing an active site.

Abstract: A method for operating a food processing device includes an irradiation step. The food processing device includes a reaction vessel and a catalyst reactor. The reaction vessel receives a mixture in a liquid form including a raw material for a food product and water. The catalyst reactor is disposed in the reaction vessel. The catalyst reactor includes a reaction tube and a light source disposed in the reaction tube. The reaction tube has an outer surface on which a photocatalyst is provided, and transmits light emitted from the light source. The method for operating the food processing device includes the irradiation step of performing irradiation with light from the light source while water is in contact with the outer surface of the reaction tube in a period after a reaction product is removed from the reaction vessel and before a raw material is subsequently introduced into the reaction vessel.

Abstract: Presented in the present disclosure are nanocomposites and rechargeable batteries which are resistant to thermal runaway and are safe, reliable, and stable electrode materials for rechargeable batteries operated at high temperature and high pressure. The nanocomposites include a plurality of transition metal oxide nanoparticles, a plurality of ultrathin sheets of a first two-dimensional (2D) material, and a plurality of ultrathin sheets of a different 2D material, which act in synergy to provide an improved thermal stability, an increased surface area, and enhanced electrochemical properties to the nanocomposites. For example, rechargeable batteries that include the nanocomposites as an electrode material have an enhanced performance and stability over a broad temperature range from room temperature to high temperatures. These batteries fill an important need by providing a safe and reliable power source for devices operated at high temperatures and pressures such as downhole equipment used in the oil industry.

Abstract: A substance treatment apparatus includes an RF signal source, power detection circuitry, a controller, and a transmission path between the RF signal source and a first electrode that radiates electromagnetic energy into a chamber. The RF signal source includes a solid-state amplifier that generates an RF signal. The power detection circuitry detects reflected signal power along the transmission path. Based on the reflected signal power, the controller modifies values of variable components within an impedance matching network electrically coupled along the transmission path to adjust a magnitude of the reflected signal power. The impedance matching network may have a double-ended input connected to a balun, and a double-ended output connected to the first electrode and to a second electrode. Alternatively, the impedance matching network may have a single-ended input connected to the RF signal source, and a single-ended output connected to the first electrode. The second electrode may be grounded.

Abstract: A plasma gate device comprises a housing, a gas inlet, first and second dielectrics, and first, second, and third electrodes. The housing includes an internal reactor chamber. The gas inlet receives a source gas that flows to the reactor chamber. The first and second dielectrics are spaced apart from one another, with each dielectric including an upper surface and a lower surface. The two dielectrics are oriented such that the lower surface of the first dielectric faces the upper surface of the second dielectric. The first and second dielectrics form boundaries of the reactor chamber. The first electrode receives a first electric voltage. The second electrode receives a second electric voltage. The first and second electric voltages in combination generate an electric field in the reactor chamber through which the source gas flows creating a positive ion plasma and a cloud of electrons. The third electrode attracts the electrons.
