Plasma is highly important because it makes up 99% of all matter in the universe. It is also known as the 4th state of matter.
Plasmas are widely used in industry. The industrial plasmas are often formed using a radio frequency field (RF) or using microwaves. These fields heat the electrons in the plasma to very high temperatures. As the electrons are light they do not exchange energy with the gas very well. The electrons are hot and the the gas is cold. This is called a non-equilibrium plasma or cold plasma. For example a fluorescent tube light is a plasma. It glows white hot and yet when you touch the tube it feels cold. The reason it glows white hot is because the electrons are hot and excite the gas atoms/molecules to emit high energy photons (UV).
Many chemical reactions will run faster at higher temperatures. It is possible to just heat the electrons and as the electrons are only .01% of the mass but they govern how the chemical reactions happen. So a lot less energy is needed to run a process very rapidly in a plasma. Even inert gases like argon can etch glass in a plasma.
