The nonthermal plasma generated in a shielded sliding discharge reactor was used to reform diesel for the hydrocarbon-selective catalytic reduction (HC-SCR) of NO sub(x) on Ag/Al sub(2)O sub(3) catalysts. Compared with raw diesel, the reformed diesel enhanced the NO sub(x) reduction efficiency, miti...
