Method and apparatus for hydrogen production from greenhouse gas saturated carbon nanotubes and synthesis of carbon nanostructures therefrom

A method and apparatus for the production of hydrogen from carbon nanotubes saturated with hydrocarbon gas or greenhouse gas is described. The hydrogen that is produced is substantially free from carbon dioxide. Additionally, the method described is useful for converting the carbon elements of the h...

Zusammenfassung:	A method and apparatus for the production of hydrogen from carbon nanotubes saturated with hydrocarbon gas or greenhouse gas is described. The hydrogen that is produced is substantially free from carbon dioxide. Additionally, the method described is useful for converting the carbon elements of the hydrocarbon gas or greenhouse gas into a de novo synthesis of carbon nanotubes.
