    Abstract: The current invention concerns a method for plasma coating an object comprising an object profile, comprising the steps of: a. providing a replaceable shield (2) comprising a jet inlet (22), a nozzle outlet (24) and a sidewall (21) extending from the jet inlet to the nozzle outlet, wherein the nozzle outlet comprises an edge (25) essentially congruent to at least part of the object profile, and whereby the shield comprises an identification means, preferably related to the nozzle outlet edge; b. detachably attaching the replaceable shield to a jet outlet of a plasma jet generator; c. placing the object at the nozzle outlet such that the object profile fits closely to the nozzle outlet edge to within a distance of at least 0.1 mm and preferably at most 5 mm, thereby minimizing a gap between the nozzle outlet and the object; d. plasma coating the object with a low-temperature, oxygen-free plasma at an operating pressure which is higher than the atmospheric pressure, preferably by at most 10%, by providing a plasma jet in the shield via the plasma jet generator and injecting coating precursors in the plasma jet in the shield, thereby creating said operating pressure, thereby plasma coating the object in an oxygen-depleted plasma zone, whereby the method comprises the additional step of: identifying the provided shield prior to providing the plasma jet.

    Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft das koronaentladungsinduzierte Spalten von wasserstoffenthaltenden Gasen (10) in molekularen Wasserstoff (12) und wenigstens ein Beiprodukt (14") oder das Herstellen von molekularem Wasserstoff und wenigstens ein Beiprodukt oder das Herstellen von Folgeprodukten aus dem molekularen Wasserstoff und/oder dem wenigstens einem Beiprodukt. Hierfür wird wasserstoffenthaltendes Gas (10) über eine Gaszuleitung (20) in einen gasdichten Reaktionsraum (18") mit genau einer Plasmaelektrode (22") eingeführt. Der gasdichte Reaktionsraum (18") ist von einer Wand (28) umschlossen, die ausgebildet ist die Plasmaelektrode (22") gegenüber einer Außenseite der Wand (28) elektrisch zu isolieren. Die Plasmaelektrode (22") ist mit einem Hochfrequenzgenerator (200) verbunden, der hochfrequente Wechselspannung bereitstellt und erzeugt Koronaentladungen (32) im Reaktionsraum (18") mittels der hochfrequenten Wechselspannung. Hierdurch wird das wasserstoffenthaltende Gas (10) in molekularen Wasserstoff (12) und wenigstens ein Beiprodukt (14") gespalten. Der molekulare Wasserstoff (12) wird aus dem Reaktionsraum (18") mittels einer Gasableitung (24) abgeführt. Das wasserstoffenthaltende Gas (10) kann beispielsweise Methan, Biogas, Erdgas, Schwefelwasserstoff, oder in den gasförmigen Aggregatzustand überführtes Cyclohexan, Heptan, Toluol, Benzin, JP-8 oder Diesel enthalten.

    Abstract: An apparatus for forming C1 to C5 alcohol, carboxylic acid, or mixture thereof from carbon dioxide and hydrogen is described. The apparatus comprises: a dielectric barrier discharge, DBD, device arranged to generate a plasma; and a passageway having an inlet for the carbon dioxide and the hydrogen and an outlet for the C1 to C5 alcohol, carboxylic acid, or mixture thereof and including therein a catalyst comprising nickel and/or cobalt and/or copper on a support. The passageway extends, at least in part, through the DBD device wherein, in use, the carbon dioxide is exposed to the catalyst in the presence of the hydrogen in the generated plasma, thereby forming the C1 to C5 alcohol, carboxylic acid, or mixture thereof from at least some of the carbon dioxide and the hydrogen. The DBD devices comprises a water electrode. A method and a catalyst are also described.

    Abstract: An apparatus for forming a C1 to C5 oxygenate from carbon dioxide and a C1 to C4 hydrocarbon is described. The apparatus comprises: a dielectric barrier discharge, DBD, device arranged to generate a plasma; and a passageway having an inlet for the carbon dioxide and the C1 to C4 hydrocarbon and an outlet for the oxygenates. In one example the passageway includes therein a catalyst. The passageway extends, at least in part, through the DBD device wherein, in use, the carbon dioxide in reacted with the C1 to C4 hydrocarbon in the generated plasma, thereby forming the oxygenates from at least some of the carbon dioxide and the C1 to C4 hydrocarbon. The DBD device comprises a conducting liquid as a ground electrode. A method and a use are also described.
