Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure provides systems and methods for nitric oxide (NO) generation and/or delivery. In some aspects, a nitric oxide generation system comprises a plasma chamber configured to ionize a reactant gas including nitrogen and oxygen to form a product gas that includes NO, a scrubber downstream from the plasma chamber and having a volume at least partially containing NO2 scrubbing material, and a flow controller downstream of the scrubber configured to control the flow of product gas from the scrubber to a delivery device. A pump is configured to convey product gas from the plasma chamber into the scrubber and is configured to pressurize the product gas in the scrubber when the flow controller is positioned to restrict the flow of product gas from the scrubber. The pressurized product gas accumulates within the scrubber and is at least partially scrubbed of NO2 prior to passage through the flow controller.
