摘要： Plasma generators and methods of generating plasma are disclosed. Electrodes in a reaction zone are energized by a high voltage power source that is electrically insulated from the electrodes. A first conductor array, preferably a coil, is electrically coupled to the power source and electrically insulated from the electrodes. A second conductor array, preferably a coaxial coil nested within the first conductor array, is electrically coupled to the electrodes. Electromagnetic induction between the first conductor array and the second conductor array is used to energize the electrodes and generate a plasma in the reaction zone. One or more microwaves are further directed at the plasma to form microwave plasma, either in parallel or in series. Such plasmas are used to reform a hydrocarbon feedstock into low C hydrocarbons, carbon, or hydrogen. Plasma generators combining induction plasma with serial microwave plasmas are further contemplated.

摘要： An induction feed through system for treating a flow of material is disclosed, including a high voltage energy source energizing a low-turn coil wrapped about an outer wall of a reaction chamber. The flow of electricity through the low-turn coil in turn energizes a high-turn coil wrapped about an inner wall disposed within the outer wall of the reaction chamber. An electrode assembly disposed within the reaction chamber is electrically coupled to and energized by the high-turn coil, in turn generating plasma in the reaction chamber. The plasma is used to excite a flow of material through the induction feed through system. The electromagnetic properties of the plasma further provide direct feedback to the low-turn and high-turn coils.
