N2 Oxidation Pathways in a ns-Pulsed Discharge Above Water: O Atoms, No, and Oh Radicals Kinetics

Nitrogen fixation (NF) is a process of converting molecular nitrogen into valuable chemicals, such as NH 3 or NO x . These components are used in many industries, in particular as a feedstock for fertilizers in agriculture. Nowadays, industrial NF is associated with high energy consumption and dramatic environmental impact. Plasma-assisted NF can be a good alternative and, with the support of renewable (green) energy sources, it can bring many benefits and reduce the environmental impact of industry [1] .
