Key Points

  • This research explores the degradation of deltamethrin pesticide in soil using a cold plasma system.
  • Utilized an atmospheric-pressure cold plasma dielectric barrier discharge (ACP-DBD) system.
  • Investigated the interaction of plasma-generated reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) with pesticide molecules.
  • Achieved effective degradation of deltamethrin in soil.
  • Resulted in the breakdown of pesticide into less toxic intermediates.
  • Improved overall soil quality.

Abstract

Degradation of deltamethrin in soil was achieved using an ACP-DBD system, where plasma-generated RONS interact with pesticide molecules, leading to molecular breakdown into less toxic intermediates and improved soil quality.
