Claim:
1. A system for generating graphene in a magnetic field, comprising: a liquid reaction chamber configured to receive a working liquid source, a carbon atom source, and a catalyst to cause a chemical reaction in the reaction chamber and a resulting reactant liquid comprising ring structures having starved carbon atoms; a graphene generation chamber coupled to said liquid reaction chamber and configured to receive said resulting reactant liquid as it exits said liquid reaction chamber, said graphene generation chamber being configured to generate a graphene film from said ring structures as part of a polymerization process, said graphene generation chamber comprising: a graphene seed source configured to provide a graphene seed to an initial location over said magnetic field within said growth portion of said graphene generation chamber, said graphene film being generated over said magnetic field such that said graphene film floats over said magnetic field due to said graphene film being diamagnetic, said ring structures causing said floating graphene film to grow continuously from said initial location, said graphene generation chamber being configured such that the floating graphene film moves away from said initial location and through said graphene generation chamber until it exits said recovery portion of said graphene generation chamber as a recovered graphene product.
