Improved co2 to co conversion method and system

Abstract

The current invention relates to a method for producing CO from CO2, comprising the steps of: providing process gas comprising CO2, and optionally CO, to a plasma jet generator; igniting a plasma in the process gas by the plasma jet generator, thereby obtaining a plasma jet comprising CO and O species; introducing the plasma jet into a carbon reaction chamber; extracting product gas from the reaction chamber, said product gas comprising said CO and CO2 and recycling at least part of the product gas and providing said product gas comprising CO and CO2 to a plasma jet generator. The invention also relates to a system for converting CO2 to CO, comprising: a carbon reaction chamber and a plasma jet generator, wherein said gas outlet of the reaction chamber is in fluid communication with the process gas inlet of a plasma jet generator.
