摘要

The production of plasma activated water (PAW) enriched with reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) is a prerequisite for high-efficient application of PAW in chemical fields. To address the limitations of conventional single-electrode PAW systems, this study designs a PAW generator with a dual-discharge mode consisting of an upper - liquid electrode and a submerged electrode to effectively compensate for the low mass - transfer efficiency of the upper - liquid discharge mode and the instability of the products in the under - liquid discharge mode, thereby improving the discharge stability. The upper - liquid electrode adopts a four - needle T - shaped structure to adapt to the turbulent liquid surface, while the submerged electrode is covered in a quartz tube to ensure stable plasma discharge. Optimized at 171 \(\:\text{V}\) (input voltage), 0.019 mol/L NaCl, and 30 min, the system achieves nonlinear RONS generation (172.11, 5.11, 3.25 and 0.81 µmol/L for \(\:{NO}_{2}^{-}\) , \(\:{NO}_{3}^{-}\) , \(\:H_2O_2\) , and \(\:O_3\) , respectively). The total energy consumption is 145.9 J, and the energy efficiency reaches 10.74 g/(KW×h). The device performance of the PAW generator is satisfactory, with temperature fluctuations confined to 7.67–8.33 °C, a final pH of 3.07, and a production volume of 2.4 L out of a rated capacity of 3 L These results underscore the potential of this design to establish a foundation for highly effective, low-energy PAW production across industrial applications.
