We investigate discharge contraction in a microwave plasma at sub-atmospheric pressure, operating in CO2 and CO2/CH4 mixtures. The rise of the electron number density with plasma contraction intensifies the gas heating in the core of the plasma. This

Non-oxidative coupling of methane has been performed in DBD plasma reactors with a catalytic layer with varying thickness loaded on the reactor wall. These structured reactors allow to study the effect of the thickness of the catalyst layer, includin

The importance of ammonia in the fertilizer industry has been widely acknowledged over the past decades. In view of the upcoming increase of world population and, in turn, food demand, its production rate is likely to increase exponentially. However,
