Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems are described for the synthesis of carbon nano onions and other materials from carbon precursors. Embodiments include systems and processes for producing CNOs also known as carbon onions or multi-layered fullerenes, from an unrecyclable gas or materials containing a carbon source, in a molten metal or metal alloy bath as well as the CNOs produced therefrom. Various embodiments may utilize a molten aluminum or molten aluminum alloy bath. Certain embodiments utilize a molten aluminum bath as the reactant. Nitrogen can be either vented to the atmosphere or captured.
