摘要： A plasma torch assembly comprises a plurality of plasma torch apertures. Each of these plasma torch apertures is adapted to receive a plasma torch. The plasma torch assembly also comprises a working position for operation of the plasma torch—the working position is pressure sealed for hyperbaric operation of the plasma torch. The plasma torch assembly also has means to move each of the plasma torch apertures to the working position. In this way, plasma torches can be swapped in and out of the working position. A method of operating a plasma torch device comprising such a plasma torch assembly is also described.

摘要： A hydrogen production system comprises a hydrogen pyrolysis reactor which has a hydrocarbon input, an electrical input and at least one hydrogen output. The hydrogen production system also comprises a hydrogen-fuelled generator. Means are provided to route part of the hydrogen from one of the at least one hydrogen outputs to the hydrogen-fuelled generator. The hydrogen-fuelled generator then generates an electrical output, which is routed to the electrical input of the hydrocarbon pyrolysis reactor. A related method of operating a hydrogen production system is also described.

摘要： A plasma torch assembly for use in a chemical reactor comprises an input system and at least one plasma torch. The plasma torch has a torch chamber with an open end for gas outflow, a first electrode disposed in the torch chamber, and a second electrode disposed in the torch chamber between the cathode and the open end. The input system has a plurality of gas feedstock inputs. Each of the plurality of gas feedstock inputs is associated with one or more specified input gases and is associated with one or more gas input positions in the torch chamber.

摘要： A chemical reactor comprises a plasma torch reactor and a liquid metal system. The plasma torch reactor receives at least one feedstock gas and provides a plasma torch output comprising reaction products. The liquid metal system receives the plasma torch output of the plasma torch reactor and separates the reaction products received from the plasma torch reactor and to provide them as output products to the chemical reactor. A method of decomposing a hydrocarbon provided as input to a chemical reactor comprising a plasma torch reactor and a liquid torch system is also described.

摘要： A plasma torch for use in a chemical reactor is described. The plasma torch has a torch chamber with an open end for outflow of reaction products and a closed end opposite to the open end. A first and a second electrode are disposed in the torch chamber, with the second electrode between the first electrode and the open end. An input system is provided for input of one or more gaseous feedstocks into the plasma torch. The plasma torch is adapted to operate at substantially above atmospheric pressure. The plasma torch is also configured so that flow of gaseous feedstocks and reaction products through the torch is adapted to prevent or reduce solid deposition on the second electrode. A suitable method of operating a plasma torch in a chemical reactor is also described.

摘要： A method of operating a plasma torch in a chemical reactor comprising a plasma torch and a liquid circulation system is described. Tin the liquid circulating system comprises a conductive material solid at ambient temperature and liquid at a reaction temperature. The method first involves operating the plasma torch to decompose a feedstock gas, so that the decomposition products are output into the liquid circulating system. The plasma torch is then shut down, with the result that an electrode of the plasma torch is at least partially flooded by conductive material from the liquid circulating system. The conductive material cools to form a conductive plug. On reigniting the plasma torch to restart the chemical reactor, a conduction path is formed through the conductive plug to melt it.
