The mean structure of turbulent bluff-body jets and flames is presented. Measurements the flow mixing fields are compared with predictions made using standard turbulence models. It found that two vortices exist in recirculation zone; an outer vortex close to air coflow inner between jet. shift downstream increasing jet momentum flux relative gradually loses its circulation pattern. ratio isothermal flows be only scaling parameter for field structure. Three layers identified zone. Numerical...

The treatability of perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCA) (perfluorobutanoic acid (PFBA), perfluorohexanoic (PFHxA), perfluorooctanoic (PFOA) and perfluorodecanoic (PFDA)) perfluorosulfonic (PFSA) (PFBS, Perfluorooctanesulfonic PFHxS (PFOS)) via a bubble column with non-thermal plasma discharges in the argon headspace were investigated individual solutions from surface water sourced contaminated site. High degradation (>90%) could be achieved for PFOA, PFOS within 40 min treating water. Overall,...

A 25L working volume non-thermal plasma-based treatment reactor was trialled to destroy Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) utilising argon bubbles transport PFAS the surface be destroyed with plasma interaction at argon-liquid interface. The breakdown rate of system's overall energy efficiency could improved while minimising gas usage by small (0.6–0.7 mm d32) maximise discharge for destruction. Vertically scaling dimensions increases liquid height dwell time contact molecules...
