<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for generating plasma, in which a large quantity of harmful organic compounds in waste water or liquid waste are decomposed/removed efficiently and stably by a small power consumption without using expendable members. <P>SOLUTION: A bar-shaped electrode 1 covered with a dielectric 2 is inserted into a liquid and a dielectric barrier discharge 3 is formed in the atmosphere above a liquid level to decompose/remove harmful organic compounds in the liquid. The dielectric barrier discharge is used for saving the power consumption, atmospheric pressure plasma is used for making expendable members unnecessary and the bar-shaped electrode is used for keeping stable plasma even when the liquid level is fluctuated. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
