SBIR-STTR Award

Atmospheric Glow Technologies proposes to develop the Plasma Agent Neutralization Elimination (PLANE) System based upon its patented One Atmosphere Uniform Glow Discharge Plasma (OAUGDP) technology. When developed, this advanced design will serve as a stand-alone system for decontamination of large frame aircraft and assoicated cargo. AGT has demonstrated the success of the OAUGDP in decontaminatng various substrates against biological and chemical warfare simulants. Phase I efforts will focus on decontamining materials common to cargo and aircraft (including sensitive materiels) with PLANE technology in an open environment. Work will also focus upon examining the material for any changes following atmospheric plasma exposure

AGT has demonstrated the success of OAUGDP in decontaminating various substrates against biological warfare simulants. Phase II efforts will serve to further develop the system and to extend materials compatibility studies to verify the process does not induce damage to representative materials. Work will also focus on validating the system under different environmental conditions.
