Abstract
The kinetics and mechanisms of metal catalysed filamentous carbon form ation and gasification are reviewed. In the process of filament growth metal crystallites are removed from the surface, so that cycles of co king/decoking can severely damage reactor surfaces and supported metal catalysts. These effects are exemplified with two cases from the petr ochemical industries.
