The paper addresses detailed analysis of kinetic processes in the H

and the influence of the activation of oxygen molecules in electric discharge on the acceleration of ignition in the H

mixtures. The possibility of the intensification of CO oxidation due to excitation of O

and N

molecule vibrations and generation of singlet oxygen molecules is also considered. It is shown that the effect of accelerating the ignition strongly depends on the reduced electric field and, as a consequence, on the composition of discharge plasma as well as on the features of chain mechanism development in oxy-fuel systems. It is revealed that the most effective approach for the intensification of CO oxidation both in the moist air and in the products of hydrocarbon combustion in air is the generation of O

even at the temperature

and N
