Abstract

The ability of a GA discharge to produce hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), a potent oxidizer, was investigated to evaluate the optimum operational condition of the GA discharge for bacterial inactivation. The concentration of H₂O₂ was measured in liquid phase, and its effective residual time was evaluated in a 200-W GA discharge system at different air and water flow rates. The concentration of H₂O₂ was the highest at the least water flow rate. In addition, a 5-log reduction in the colony forming unit (cfu) number of E. coli was observed at a H₂O₂ concentration of 100mg/L in water.
