Patent CA-2621749-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BOUTOT TOBIE JEAN
IPC: H05H1/48
Filed: 2008-02-19
Abstract: A cold arc discharge is used to decompose natural gas or methane into its gaseous constituents and carbon in the form of solid particles. The gaseous constituents obtained are mainly hydrogen and acetylene and they are produced in admixture with unreacted natural gas or methane. The cold arc discharge is generated by a pulsating high voltage discharge imparted through a capacitor to a high voltage electrode or a plurality of high voltage electrodes or through a high voltage electrode to a plurality of capacitor--connected electrodes placed in a reaction zone. The apparatus for performing this process may have a tubular reactor with a cylindrical ground electrode in the middle and a cylindrical outer wall through which the high voltage electrode or electrodes extend into the reaction zone. The apparatus may also have a cylindrical shaft in the middle made of dielectric material in which a plurality of electrodes are embedded, this shaft being surrounded by a high voltage tubular electrode. Natural gas or methane is passed through the reaction zone where it is subjected to the cold arc discharge or discharges and the resulting products flow out of the reactor and solid carbon particles are separated from the remaining gases that are then analysed.

Inventor: YAMAGUCHI MAKOTO
IPC: C22B34/12
Filed: 2006-08-22
Abstract: A process for producing Ti, comprising the reduction step of providing a molten salt containing CaCl2 and having Ca dissolved therein and reacting TiCl4 with the Ca to thereby form Ti particles, the separation step of separating the Ti particles formed in the molten salt from the molten salt and the electrolysis step of electrolyzing the molten salt so as to increase the concentration of Ca, wherein the molten salt having the concentration of Ca increased in the electrolysis step is introduced in a regulation vessel to thereby render the Ca concentration of the molten salt constant and thereafter is used in the reduction of TiCl4 in the reduction step. In this process, not only can any fluctuation of Ca concentration of molten salt charged in a reduction vessel be suppressed but also a high concentration thereof can be maintained. Further, continuous processing of a large volume of molten salt becomes feasible. Therefore, the reduction reaction of TiCl4 can be efficiently performed, and as a process for realization of Ti production on an industrial scale, the process can be effectively utilized in the production of Ti by Ca reduction.
