Abstract
An atmospheric pressure low-current arc discharge between graphite electrodes with conical geometry in a liquid ethanol/water mixture was investigated. Syngas production was demonstrated over large experimental conditions. In this paper, we focus on discharge aspects. It is shown from pictures that the behavior of a low-current arc discharge with consumable electrodes represents nonstationary plasma.
