Abstract :
The application of plasma physics to the manufacturing and processing of materials and resources may be the new edge of our discipline and control. The science of low-temperature plasmas is not as well industrial as that of high-temperature but the performance of plasmas has a large commercial and technological impact and partially ionized discharges are widely used in industry. Several major areas of industrial applications are described in this paper and many problems that occur in industries are also explained. A number of solutions for each problem are also described which is very much important for the presentation.
