Water-borne pathogenic bacteria are always the top priority to be removed through disin-fection process in water treatment due to their threat to human health.It was necessary to develop novel disinfection methods since the conventional chlorine disinfection was in-efficient in inactivating chlorine-resistant bacteria,inducing the viable but non-culturable(VBNC)bacteria and forming disinfection by-products(DBPs).In this study,the inactivation of four model strains including Gram-negative(G-),Gram-positive(G+)and environmental samples by atmospheric-pressure air-liquid discharge plasma(ALDP)was assessed system-atically.The results showed that ALDP was superior in inactivating all of the samples com-pared with chlorination.During 10 min ALDP treatment,the G-bacteria were completely inactivated,and the G+one was inactivated by more than 4.61 logs.The inactivation of bac-teria from a campus lake and a wastewater treatment plant effluent exceeded 99.82％and 97.78％,respectively.For G-bacteria,ALDP resulted in a much lower(102～103 times)levels of VBNC cells than chlorination.ALDP could effectively remove the chlorine-resistant bacte-ria.More than 96.41％of the intracellular DNA and 99.99％of the extracellular DNA were re-moved,whereas it was only 56.35％and 12.82％for chlorination.ALDP had a stronger ability to destroy cell structure than chlorination,presumably due to the existence of ROS(·OH,1O2 and O2-).GC-MS analysis showed that ALDP produced less DBPs than chlorination.These findings provided new insights for the application of discharge plasma in water disinfection,which could be complemental or alternative to the conventional disinfection methods.
