This paper discusses the results of an experimental study of a new method o
f natural gas pyrolysis based on thermal decomposition in a flow of high te
mperature carrier gas preliminary heated in the regenerative heater matrix.
It has been shown that in this case the methane carbon is almost completel
y converted into black carbon and no pyrocarbon is produced in the reaction
volume. (C) 1999 International Association for Hydrogen Energy. Published
