Abstract: A system for processing fine powders includes a hopper for dispensing powder material through a hopper outlet, and a feeding chamber positioned downstream of the hopper outlet to receive the powder material and convey the powder material to a plasma torch. The system also includes an auger positioned at the hopper outlet, a mechanical vibrator and a mesh screen attached to a flange of the feeding chamber, and a pneumatic system providing a gas flow sufficient to propel the powder material without extinguishing a plasma of the plasma torch.

Abstract: The embodiments disclosed herein are directed to systems, methods, and devices for producing materials having desired characteristics using microwave plasma. In some embodiments, performing an iterative process may be used to produce a material having desired characteristics, the process comprising forming a microwave plasma within the reaction chamber, analyzing the plasma to determine if properties of the plasma are within a range expected to produce the desired characteristics of the material; and adjusting, based on the analysis of the plasma, one or more parameters. In some embodiments, an extension tube is provided within a microwave plasma apparatus to extend the length of a microwave plasma.

Abstract: The embodiments disclosed herein are directed to systems, methods, and devices for pyrolysis of methane in a microwave plasma for hydrogen production and structured carbon powder. Some methods are directed to producing a structured carbon powder using a microwave generated plasma comprising injecting a plasma gas comprising methane (CH4) into a liner, the liner in communication with a microwave waveguide; propagating microwaves through the microwave waveguide, the microwaves generated using a microwave generator; and generating a microwave plasma by contacting the plasma gas with the microwaves.
