Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The disclosure provides for methods of oxidizing carbide anions, or negative ions, from salt like carbides at temperatures from about 150° C. to about 750° C. In another aspect, the disclosure provides for reactions with intermediate transition metal carbides. In yet another aspect, the disclosure provides for a system of reactions where salt-like carbide anions and intermediate carbide anions are oxidized to produce pure carbon of various allotropes.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A reactor system comprising at least one reactor for a non-homogeneous chemical reaction between a solid phase comprising at least one carbide and a melt phase comprising at least one metal salt, wherein the solid phase and melt phase form a reaction interface, wherein the reactor system comprises a plurality of the at least one reactors for the non-homogeneous chemical reaction which are horizontally oriented reactors. 2. The reactor system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of horizontally oriented reactors are stacked on each other. 3. The reactor system of claim 1 , wherein the horizontally oriented reactors comprise stainless steel tubes. 4. The reactor system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of reactors are adapted for non-agitation of the solid phase and melt phase. 5. The reactor system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of reactors are sealed and provide for a moisture free and oxygen free reaction environment. 6. A reactor system comprising at least one reactor for a non-homogeneous chemical reaction between a solid phase comprising at least one carbide and a melt phase comprising at least one metal salt, wherein the solid phase and melt phase form a reaction interface, wherein the reactor system comprises a plurality of the at least one reactors for the non-homogeneous chemical reaction which are stacked reactors. 7. The reactor system of claim 6 , wherein the stacked reactors comprise stainless steel tubes. 8. The reactor system of claim 6 , wherein the stacked reactors are adapted for non-agitation of the solid phase and melt phase. 9. The reactor system of claim 6 , wherein the stacked reactors are sealed and provide for a moisture free and oxygen free reaction environment. 10. A reactor system comprising at least one reactor for a non-homogeneous chemical reaction between a solid phase comprising at least one carbide and a melt phase comprising at least one metal salt, wherein the solid phase and melt phase form a reaction interface, wherein the at least one reactor comprises a glass ampoule reactor. 11. The reactor system of claim 10 , wherein the reactor is a horizontal reactor. 12. The reactor system of claim 10 , wherein there is a plurality of the at least one reactors which are horizontally oriented reactors stacked on each other. 13. The reactor system of claim 10 , wherein the reactor system also comprises a stainless steel tube. 14. The reactor system of claim 10 , wherein the reactors are adapted for non-agitation of the solid phase and melt phase. 15. The reactor system of claim 10 , wherein the reactors are sealed and provides for a moisture free and oxygen free reaction environment.
