The aim of this study is to investigate the development and optimization of a highintensity, pulsed plasma, gas-discharge (PPGD) system for the novel decontamination of wastewater that may contain hazardous chemicals. The presences of these chemical compounds in treated effluent shows that conventional wastewater treatments do not fully remove or destroy these threats to the aquatic environment and in turn public health. As the PPGD system produces multiple short-lived decontaminating properties in the treatment chamber, which includes ozone, acoustic shock waves, UV light and pulsed electric fields, it may facilitate the novel removal or destruction of unwanted chemicals in wastewater treatment. In order to investigate the efficacy of the PPGD system the destruction of phenol in artificially-spiked water samples and the effects of the treatment on the toxicity of the sample post treatment was examined. 2013-12-11T12:39:25Z 2013-12-11T12:39:25Z 2012-06-18 Working Paper p. 108-112 978-967-5760-11-2 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/30445 en Proceedings of the The 2nd International Malaysia-Ireland Joint Symposium on Engineering, Science and Business 2012 (IMiEJS2012); Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
