Plasma Assisted Combustion, Gasification, and Pollution Control.
Volume 3. Plasma Technologies
We plan to publish Volume 3 of the Plasma Assisted Combustion book (PAC book), and will appreciate your interest in this fast-growing and exciting field as well as contribution of your research results.
PAC book series started in 2013. Today, it is one of the successful non-commercial projects of the non-profit International Plasma Technology Center, Corp., which united over 40 contributing authors from 8 countries. We plan to publish new volumes and their editions in the future, depending on progress in the field and the activity of the contributing authors.
Volume 1 provided a description of different plasma sources especially designed for PAC as well as basic information on plasma physics and the accompanying physical processes important in PAC. Here we collected the most valuable contributions to the field from different research groups all over the globe starting from the 1970s.
Published in 2015, Volume 2 included results of mathematical modeling and theoretical investigations of ignition, combustion, flame-sustaining, and gasification processes of liquid, gaseous, and solid fuels. Significant attention was focused on experimental validation and industrial applications.
Volume 3 will be mainly devoted to plasma technologies – newly developed, emerging, and under theoretical investigation. These technologies, which will impact our lives in the near future, will drive the progress of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
This book is intended for senior students, graduate students, PhD candidates, researchers, and in-service engineers. To contribute your research, provide financial support, or order printed books with hard covers, please contact Chief Editor Dr. Igor Matveev at igor@plasmacombustion.com or phone: +1-703-340-5545.
Volumes 1 and 2 are available for purchase at Outskirt Press or Amazon.
Tentative publication date for Volume 3 is February 2025. We will provide links for ordering. Learn more about the project by clicking Book Idea and Volume 3 Tentative Contents.
