GASSMAKS-Økt verdiskaping fra naturgass

Cold plasma conversion of natural gas to petrochemical products

The route from natural gas to chemical products generally involves large scale, high temperature processes and high capital costs. In lab setups microwave plasma processes have shown to generate products such as olefins and ammonia from natural gas under mild process conditions. This project wil...

GASSMAKS-Økt verdiskaping fra naturgass

Microwave coldplasma cracking of natural gas to valuable carbon products

The key element of novelty of the innovation is the potential to produce carbon nanostructures by microwave plasma cracking of natural gas on a continual basis under atmospheric pressure and at industrial scales. The main research project will aim to iden tify and specify commercially promising r...

GASSMAKS-Økt verdiskaping fra naturgass

Gasplas cold plasma cracking of natural gas to carbon polymers

This pre-project will bring together some leading researchers on the topic in order to define the most central R&D challenges for the main project. Since this is - to our knowledge - the first microwave plasma reformer that makes continuous growth of CNTs and CNPs possible, the main project will...
