Abstract:
1. A process for extracting hydrocarbons from a molecular combination, the process comprising: heating a molecular combination including carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen to dissociate the molecular combination into a particle stream of carbon cations, hydrogen cations, and oxygen anions; guiding the dissociated particle stream through a non-conductive conduit at a velocity relative to the conduit; moving the dissociated particle stream through a magnetic field to separate the carbon cations and hydrogen cations from the oxygen anions, the magnetic field created by a magnetic field source oriented relative to the velocity of the dissociated particle stream; and using a barrier located in the non-conductive conduit, isolating the separated carbon cations and hydrogen cations from the oxygen anions.
