Abstract:		"This work presents a hybrid technology and two hybrid installations (HI-1 and HI-2) for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) removal using successive or simultaneous microwave (MW) irradiation, electron beam (EB) irradiation, and catalytic oxidation. HI-1 is designed for successive EB and MW irradiation with two distinct reactors, both containing a catalyst inside. HI-2 is designed for simultaneous EB and MW irradiation in the same reactor containing a catalyst. Real synergistic effects between non-thermal plasma (NTP) and catalysis were obtained by introducing the catalyst into the irradiation zone, i.e. into the MW reactor EB reactor or into a reactor in which both EB and MW are injected"
