  • Patent number: 12266510
    Abstract: A plasma treatment device is provided and includes a first electrode, a dielectric body supportive of the first electrode and a second mesh electrode having an opposite polarity as the first electrode and comprising a seating portion. The second mesh electrode is disposed proximate to the dielectric body to define a gap receptive of particles for collection in the seating portion. The gap is sized such that, with the second mesh electrode activated, a plasma field is generated to treat the particles in the seating portion. The seating portion is configured to retain the particles during treatment in opposition to ionic winds resulting from the plasma field.

  • Publication number: 20230363075
    Abstract: A plasma treatment device includes dielectric plates arranged in parallel, sets of active electrodes disposed on outwardly facing sides of the dielectric plates, respectively, and ground electrodes interposed between inwardly facing sides of the dielectric plates. The sets of active electrodes and the ground electrodes are arranged to define a plasma treatment zone, which exhibits multi-axis symmetry and which is receptive of particles, and are operable to generate plasma for plasma treating the particles therein.
