Abstract:		"Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are air pollutants that pose a major concern, and novel treatment technologies must be continuously explored and developed. In this study, microwave-induced metal discharge was applied to investigate the destruction of acetone as a representative model VOC compound. Results revealed that metal discharge intensity largely depended on microwave output power and the number of metal strips. Microwave metal discharge exerted the distinct combined effects of intense heat, strong light, and plasma. In the case of MW without metal discharge, the decrease in acetone at 200?ª+ppm was remarkably limited (approximately 5.5% (mol/mol)). By contrast, in the case of microwave-induced metal discharge, a considerably high destruction efficiency of up to 65% (mol/mol) was obtained at low concentrations. This finding highlights the potential of microwave-induced discharge for VOC removal. Initial assessment indicated that energy consumption can be acceptable"
