发明名称 Conversion of Natural Gas to Liquid Form Using a Rotation/Separation System in a Chemical Reactor
摘要 A system and method are provided for the separation of hydrogen from natural gas feedstock to form hydrocarbon radicals. Aspects of the system include perpendicular magnetic and electric fields, a method of radical formation that separates hydrogen from the reaction process, and a separation method based on centrifugal forces and phase transitions. The gases rotate in the chamber due to the Lorentz force without any mechanical motion. Rotation separates gases and liquids by centrifugal force. The lighter species are collected from the mid region endpoint of the apparatus and fed back for further reaction. A new concept of controlled turbulence is introduced to mix various species. A novel magnetic field device is introduced comprised of two specially magnetized cylinders. A novel control of temperatures, pressures, electron densities and profiles by, RF, microwaves, UV and rotation frequency are possible especially when atomic, molecular, cyclotron resonances are taken into account. The electrodes can be coated with catalysts; the entire apparatus can be used as a new type of chemical reactor.

主权项 1. A method for chemical conversion of natural gas to liquefied form, comprising: providing a feedstock natural gas mixture into a chamber; generating an electric field in a first direction of said chamber; injecting electrical energy into said chamber to at least partially ionize the gas mixture and to cause dissociation of natural gas in said mixture into hydrocarbon radicals; generating a magnetic field in a second direction of said chamber perpendicular to the first direction to induce rotation of said ionized gas mixture about an axis of said chamber and to induce chemical reactions between said hydrocarbon radicals to form hydrocarbon molecules having increased hydrocarbon chain length from said radicals; controlling at least temperature conditions to produce a liquefied natural gas product in said chamber; and recovering at least one liquefied natural gas product from said rotating ionized natural gas mixture.
