Abstract
Systems and methods for plasma based synthesis of graphitic materials. The system includes a plasma forming zone configured to generate a plasma from radio-frequency radiation, an interface element configured to transmit the plasma from the plasma forming zone to a reaction zone, and the reaction zone configured to receive the plasma. The reaction zone is further configured to receive feedstock material comprising a carbon containing species, and convert the feedstock material to a product comprising the graphitic materials in presence of the plasma.
Claims16
A system for plasma based synthesis of hydrocarbon products, the system comprising:
- a plasma forming zone configured to generate a plasma from radio-frequency radiation, the plasma forming zone configured to transmit the plasma formed within a discharge tube to a reaction zone via a first path that includes an interface element;
- a feedstock source in fluid communication with the reaction zone via a second path;
- and
- the reaction zone configured to receive the plasma, wherein the reaction zone is further configured to:
- receive, from the feedstock source via the second path, feedstock material comprising a carbon containing species, and
- convert the feedstock material to a product in presence of the plasma.
