Application of plasma technologies for increasing catalysts activity in the chemical industry

The article discusses the results of processing some catalysts used in the chemical industry using plasma technologies. The catalysts already used in production were treated in vacuum with a beam of argon ions with the addition of oxygen. The experiments were carried out with different values of the ion beam current and the energy of its ions. As a result of the experiments, it turned out that the characteristics of plasma-treated catalysts already used turned out to be close to those of fresh catalysts.
