    摘要: A plasma generating system includes a waveguide for transmitting a microwave energy therethrough and an inner wall disposed within the waveguide to define a plasma cavity, where a plasma is generated within the plasma cavity using the microwave energy. The plasma generating system further includes: an adaptor having a gas outlet through which an exhaust gas processed by the plasma exits the plasma cavity; and a recuperator directly attached to the adaptor and having a gas passageway that is in fluid communication with the gas outlet in the adaptor. The recuperator recovers heat energy from the exhaust gas and heats an input gas using the heat energy.

    摘要: A token adjustment system may include a carbon conversion device operable to generate a syngas from a greenhouse gas and a processing device. The processing device may be operable to receive one or more measurements. The one or more measurements may include one or more of an input flow measurement received from an input flow sensor, an output flow measurement received from an output flow sensor, or a utility measurement received from a utility sensor. The processing device may be operable to compute a carbon balance, a carbon intensity, or a carbon adjustment based on the one or more measurements. The processing device may be operable to cause a token to be generated or consumed based on the carbon balance, the carbon intensity, or the carbon adjustment.

    摘要: The present invention provides a plasma generating system that includes: a plasma cavity for generating a plasma therewithin by use of microwave energy; an adaptor electrically grounded and having a gas outlet through which an exhaust gas processed by the plasma exits the plasma cavity; and an ignition device mounted on the adaptor. The ignition device includes: a first electrode electrically grounded; and a second electrode electrically floating and configured to convert a portion of the microwave energy into an electrostatic discharge to thereby develop a voltage difference between the first and second electrodes, where the voltage difference generates a spark discharge between the first electrode and the second electrode to create the plasma.

    摘要: A plasma generating system is provided. The plasma generating system includes: a pair of electrodes having distal ends; an electrode holder holding the pair of electrodes; a gate having a surface on which the electrode holder is slidably mounted and adapted to be controlled by sliding the electrode holder on the surface; and a resilient member secured to the gate and adapted to generate a force to close the opening. The distal ends are adapted to move into an opening of the gate as the electrode holder slides along a direction on the surface and adapted to generate an electric arc to thereby ignite plasma in a gas.

    摘要: A plasma reaction system may include a plasma chamber and an ancillary reaction chamber. The plasma chamber may include a plasma chamber inlet for introducing reactant gases into the plasma chamber, plasma chamber walls that form an interior space in which chemical reactions between the reactant gases may occur, a plasma generated within the plasma chamber, a waveguide for directing energy towards the plasma generated within the plasma chamber, and a plasma chamber outlet for carrying first outlet gases from the plasma chamber. The ancillary reaction chamber may include an ancillary reaction chamber inlet configured to obtain the first outlet gases from the plasma chamber, ancillary reaction chamber walls that form an interior space of the ancillary reaction chamber in which second chemical reactions between the outlet gases may occur, and an ancillary reaction chamber outlet for carrying second outlet gases from the ancillary reaction chamber.
