▎ 摘  要

NOVELTY - The method involves providing a plasma forming material to a reaction zone; exposing the plasma forming material to microwave radiation, for selectively converting the plasma forming material to a non-thermal plasma forming one or more streamers; providing a hydrocarbon precursor material to the reaction zone; and exposing the hydrocarbon precursor material to the one or more streamers and the microwave radiation, where the exposure of the hydrocarbon precursor material selectively converting the hydrocarbon precursor material to a product including one or more carbon enriched materials and one or more hydrogen enriched materials. USE - Method for processing the precursor material into the product utilizing the non-thermal plasma. ADVANTAGE - The method facilitates the conversion of the precursor material(s) to the product(s) while minimizing carbon build up and/or energy consumption. The streamers enable the same (or higher) conversion rates and/or product selectivity than prior processes (e.g., thermal plasma) with a lower microwave radiation density within the reaction zone than the prior processes. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows a flow chart of a method for processing the precursor material into the product utilizing the non-thermal plasma.
