Abstract
The results of thermodynamic calculations and experimental studies on hydrocarbon gas pyrolysis at atmospheric pressure in a combined plasma-chemical reactor with the production of hydrogen and carbon black with nano-carbon structures are presented. The plasma pyrolysis technology consists of heating hydrocarbon gas in an electric arc combined reactor to a temperature that ensures its dissociation into hydrogen and carbon black in a single techno-logical process.
