A reactor for the plasma-assisted processing of gaseous media comprising a reactor chamber including a gas permeable bed of active material, a power source for applying across the bed of active material a potential sufficient to establish a plasma in a gaseous medium flowing through the bed of active material and a chamber having an inlet stub and an outlet stub for constraining the gaseous medium to flow through the bed of active material, wherein the bed of active material comprises a matrix of beads of a dielectric material having an assembly of regular arrays of beads in each of which adjacent beads are connected to a high voltage input terminal or an electrical ground.
The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for the use of atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma to clean and sterilize the surfaces of liquid handling devices. In one embodiment, a method of cleaning a fluid handling device includes the steps of inserting a tip of the fluid handling device into an interior of a channel through a first opening disposed at a first end of the channel, wherein a first electrode is disposed adjacent an exterior of the channel; causing a plasma to be formed within the interior of the channel; and removing the fluid handling device from the channel through the first opening.
The present invention relates to methods and apparatuses for the use of atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma to clean and sterilize the surfaces of liquid handling devices.
