Conversion of natural gas to hydrogen and carbon black by plasma and application of plasma carbon black

Resource recovery from synthetic polymers via microwave pyrolysis using different susceptors

“…Moreover, cracking of gaseous hydrocarbons is not expected to occur at low microwave powers and under on-off mode of operation employed in the present study. Gas cracking is reported to occur in single mode operation, especially at very high microwave powers (>2 kW) [45][46][47].…”

Synthesis of Micro- and Nanomaterials in CO2and CO Dielectric Barrier Discharges

“…The dissociation of CO 2 or CH 4 in NTP reactors mainly targets the generation of gaseous products (CO, H­ 2 , or a mixture of both). Nonetheless, the concept of co‐generation of carbonaceous added‐value solid products in discharges of greenhouse gases was also explored for thermal plasmas as well as NTP setups . In the majority of these studies the deposition of carbon was associated with the decomposition of the initially present or formed methane (or higher hydrocarbons) according to the endothermic reaction (reaction 2): …”

Methane decomposition for carbon nanotube production: Optimization of the reaction parameters using response surface methodology

“…In this reaction, the produced carbon can be utilized for the production of nanotubes (Allaedini et al, 2015b;Cho et al, 2004). Since the discovery of CNTs by Iijima (Iijima, 1991), many reports M a n u s c r i p t 4 have been presented on the production of CNTs using CVD technology, the first study being reported by Kong et al (Kong et al, 1998).Consequently, more attempt were made for the production of CNT via methane decomposition even until recently (Ping et al, 2016).…”
