Abstract
Various examples are provided related to catalytic nanofiber membrane assemblies or structures which can be used in plasma reactors. In one example, a three-dimensional (3D) catalytic structure includes nanofiber-based elements (NFBEs) and electrodes placed about the NFBEs with the NFBEs stacked between the electrodes. In another example, a plasma reactor includes a vessel containing the 3D catalytic structure where gas pressure in the vessel is less than 1 atmosphere.
