ICPAT - International Conference on Plasma Assisted Technologies

February 18 -21, 2013

Brazilian Center for Physics Research (CBPF), Rua Dr. Xaviera Sigaud, 150. Urca, Rio De Janeiro, RJ. 22290-180. Tel: 55 21 2141-7417, http://www.cbpf.br.

ICPAT will provide a forum to present and discuss scientific and engineering aspects of different plasma based technologies, including plasma generation, fuels ignition, plasma assisted combustion, hydrocarbons conversion and activation, coal gasification and combustion, gases ionization, waste destruction for power generation, plasma enhanced propulsion, pollutions reduction, surface modifications, water, wood, and construction materials treatment, and production of hydrogen-enriched gases.

ICPAT will help to bridge a gap between theoretical investigations and industrial needs.

ICPAT will have at least 12 sections with further round tables:
1. Plasma Ignition and Flame Control
2. Plasma Generation, Diagnostics, and Modeling
3. Fuel Reformation and Activation
4. Plasma Flow Dynamics
5. Plasma Kinetics
6. Plasma Propulsion
7. Power Sources
8. New Plasma Effects and Perspective Applications
9. Coal, Bio-mass, and Waste into Energy Processing
10. Water Treatment
11. Plasma Treatment for Coatings and Surface Modification
12. Business Forum

ICPAT-8 will announce and honor new members of the International Council of Plasma Assisted Combustion Experts.

From 2009, because of limited number of oral presentations, it is combined with a poster session.

Submit your abstracts (see template - MS Word file, up to 500 words, Times New Roman 12 font + color pictures, including authors short CV and photo): by 31 October 2012 to Dr. Igor Matveev at i.matveev@att.net

Registration fee - 450 US Dollars, could be paid by credit card, by wire transfer, and by cash. In case of payment by credit card, please first send us a registration form and we will arrange an e-request + e-invoice through the PayPal payment system. For wire transfer, please send your registration form electronically or by fax and ask for the banking information. On site registration fee is 550 USD (cash only).

ICPAT-8 offers the Electronic Poster (EP) form of participation for scientists who, for some reason, cannot attend the forum and deliver their talks personally. This poster title and authors will be listed in the contents of the ICPAT book of abstracts and available for the ICPAT attendees in electronic format only. Authors of the EPs will be included in the plasma assisted combustion specialists data base, get an e-copy of the ICPAT-8 book of abstracts, and will also encouraged to provide (optionally) their Power Point Presentations (PPP) in pdf format to be distributed among the conference participants with the after-conference flash drives. The best EPs will be recommended for publication in the IEEE December 2013 Special Issue on Plasma Assisted Combustion.

Final paper deadline to publish in the IEEE
Plasma Assisted Combustion - 2013 Special Issue: 01 May 2013
Plasma Assisted Combustion - 2014 Special Issue: 01 April 2014
