Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue explores how advanced plasma technologies are being used for infection control, sustainable environmental solutions, nanotechnology, and other biological applications. This Special Issue explores the synergy between plasma science and advanced engineering to create environment-smart solutions with broad societal impact. It is also focused on smart advanced plasma systems with real-time sensing and adaptive control, which are poised to deliver precision, energy-efficient, and versatile solutions for future healthcare, environmental, and industrial applications. This Special Issue focuses on scalable, commercially viable innovations that can be applied to real-world settings. By bridging plasma science, nanotechnology, and biotechnology, this Special Issue outlines a transformative roadmap for both human health and planetary sustainability.
