摘要:Methane may be dissociated at low temperatures and/or pressures utilizing areactor designed to generate shockwaves in a supersonic gaseous vortex. Within apreprocessing chamber, the methane may be pressurized to a pressure of 700 kPa ormore, and heated to a temperature below a dissociation temperature of methane. Themethane may be introduced as a gas stream substantially tangentially to an inner surfaceof a chamber of the reactor to effectuate a gaseous vortex rotating about a longitudinalaxis within the chamber. The gas stream may be introduced using a nozzle that
accelerates the gas stream to a supersonic velocity. A frequency of shockwaves emittedfrom the nozzle into the gaseous vortex may be controlled. Product gas and carbonbyproduct may be emitted from the chamber of the reactor. The carbon byproduct maybe separated out from the product gas using a gas/solid separator.
