Abstract
A hydrocarbon reclamator consists of a closed chamber having an exhaust inlet port, a hydrogen inlet port, and a hydrocarbon outlet port. A magnetic flux is generated at the base of the closed chamber and a rotor is suspended by the magnetic flux within the closed chamber. The rotor is formed as a Tesla turbine having axially spaced discs concentrically mounted on a central shaft, a catalyst is formed on surfaces of the discs, and flow holes are formed through the discs. Venturi forces direct gas to release kinetic energy against the discs, so that hydrogen entering the chamber combines with carbon entering the chamber to form a hydrocarbon that exits the chamber via the hydrocarbon outlet port.

A hydrocarbon reclamator, comprising:
- a closed chamber having an exhaust inlet port, a hydrogen inlet port, and a hydrocarbon outlet port;
- a means for generating a magnetic flux at the base of the closed chamber;
- and
- a rotor suspended by the magnetic flux within the closed chamber, the rotor having a surface having a catalyst, the rotor configured to direct gas from the inlet ports to the outlet port;
- whereby hydrogen entering the closed chamber via the hydrogen inlet port combines with carbon entering the chamber via the exhaust inlet port to form a hydrocarbon that exits the closed chamber via the hydrocarbon outlet port.
