Dr. Igor Matveev, the Chief Editor of this book, is a world recognized leader in Plasma Assisted Combustion, having over 1,200 plasma systems developed under his supervision in operation worldwide. In 1996 he was awarded the title “Citizen of the Year” in his native city Nikolaev. From 2000 to 2002 he served as an international consultant for the UN Economic Commission for Europe in energy and water conservation. Since 2004 Dr. Matveev has been a guest editor for the IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science Plasma Assisted Combustion special issue and the organization committee chair for the 2nd to 8th International Conference on Plasma Assisted Technologies (ICPAT).

Book Details
This two-volume work is one of the first projects of the newly established
International Plasma Technology Center (IPTC) and is the first attempt to
collect the most valuable contributions to the relatively new field of science
named Plasma Assisted Combustion (PAC) from different research groups all over
the globe. It intended to provide, in Volume 1, a description of different
plasma sources especially designed for PAC and, in Volume 2, to describe PAC
processes that are under development or used industrially. If successful, we
plan to publish new editions every two to three years, depending on progress in
this field. This book is intended to be used as a textbook at the senior or
first-year graduate level by students from all engineering and physical science
disciplines, by PhD students, researchers, and as a reference source by
in-service engineers and other researchers. Basic information on plasma physics
and the accompanying physical processes important in PAC are contained in Volume
1. Devices, technologies, current state, and future works will be covered in
Volume 2.
