An innovative plasma-chemical hydrocarbon processing reactor has been developed. It is based on the interaction of nonequilibrium gas-discharge plasma with hydrocarbons in the bulk of a raw material. The results of experiments have shown that nonequilibrium gas-discharge plasma of micro-arc discharge, initiated in the bulk of hydrocarbon raw materials, is a unique tool for their processing. It is shown that this method allows not only decomposing hydrocarbons into light fractions, but also simultaneous obtaining fullerenes and nanotubes.
