Devices and methods for radiation assisted chemical processing

Abstract

Disclosed is a device for performing radiation assisted chemical processing including a fluid path, defined at least in part by a first surface of a wall transparent to radiation useful for performing radiation assisted chemical processing, and a gas discharge or plasma chamber arranged for producing the radiation, wherein the chamber is defined at least in part by a second surface of the transparent wall, opposite the first A related method of forming a photocatalytic reactor comprises among other steps the step of wash-coating the fluid path so as to deposit a photocatalytic material therein, wherein the step of wash-coating includes depositing, and not depositing or removing photocatalytic mateπal, respectively, on a first portion or from a second portion of the of non-circular cross section of the path, the second portion including at least some of the first surface of the wall of transparent material
