Abstract

<p>This research investigates the direct phenol production from toluene by dielectric-barrier discharge (DBD) plasma in a mixture gas of argon and water vapor. Two kinds of experiment were conducted. The first experiment was by irradiating the surface of liquid toluene with DBD plasma jet, and the second one was by generating DBD plasma in a bottle of toluene into which the mixture gas was flowing. The maximum phenol yields at the first and second experiment were 0.8×10-3% and 3.2×10-3%, respectively. The phenol yield at the first experiment increased with decrease of input power for the DBD. The phenol yield at the second experiment took the maximum when the water for making the mixture gas by bubbling was the room temperature.</p>
