       FIG. 1  is a schematic of a system  100  comprising two vessels. In certain embodiments, the system  100  is used to carry out a first reaction (e.g., oxidizing a carbonaceous composition). In certain embodiments, the system is used to carry out a second reaction (e.g. reducing a carbonaceous composition). In certain embodiments, the system includes a first vessel (e.g., a reaction chamber or reaction vessel where a reaction takes place)  101  and a second vessel (e.g. a tank or mixer tank where a reaction is quenched)  102 . In certain embodiments, the first vessel  101  is open or closed (e.g., sealed). In certain embodiments, the first vessel comprises a reaction chamber (e.g. reaction vessel or reaction bowl). In certain embodiments, the first vessel comprises a mixer bowl. In certain embodiments, the first vessel contains a substance or composition that is mixing and/or reacting. Any description herein of the first vessel (e.g. first reaction vessel, reaction bowl, etc) is applicable to a mixer bowl (or a mixer), and vice versa. In certain embodiments, a mixer or mixer system  103  stirs or mixes the contents of the first vessel (e.g., the contents of the mixer bowl). In an example, the mixer is a 20 quart mixer. In certain embodiments, the mixer  103  comprises one or more mixer agitators  104  that stirs or mixes the contents of the first vessel (e.g., the contents of the mixer bowl). In certain embodiments, the mixer  103  comprises a motor (not shown). In certain embodiments, the motor drives the mixer agitator  104 . In certain embodiments, the mixer agitator comprises a shaft  105  and a paddle, blade or other stirrer  106 . In certain embodiments, the motor is further coupled to other components of the system  100  as described elsewhere herein. In certain embodiments, the mixer  103  comprises a fan  107 , an optional fresh air intake  108  and/or one or more controls  109 . In certain embodiments, a power source (shown) is in electrical communication with the mixer  103 . In certain embodiments, the mixer  103  comprises the first vessel (e.g., mixer bowl)  101  (i.e., the mixer bowl is part of the mixer system). In certain embodiments, the optional fresh air intake  108  takes in air, for example, to protect the motor from corrosive gases (e.g., corrosive gases within the mixer  103  or any other elements of the system  100 ). In certain embodiments, the fresh air intake  108  is not provided in certain embodiments (e.g., fresh air may in some cases not be used when the motor is a hydraulic motor). In certain embodiments, the motor is any suitable motor that can properly drive the mixer agitator  104  and/or other components of the system  100 . In certain embodiments, the motor is a hydraulic motor, an electrical motor, or other motor. 
     In certain embodiments, the mixer comprises (e.g., hold or contain) a fluid (e.g., solid, liquid or gas). In certain embodiments, the mixer comprises a liquid (e.g., sulfuric acid), a solid (e.g., graphite) or a mixture thereof. In certain embodiments, the contents of the mixer is maintained at a suitable temperature, such as, for example, less than or equal to about 0° C., 1° C., 2° C., 3° C., 4° C., 6° C., 8° C., 10° C., 15° C., 20° C., 25° C., 30° C., 35° C., 40° C., 45° C., 50° C., 55° C., 60° C., 65° C., 70° C., 75° C., 80° C., 85° C., 90° C., 95° C. or 100° C. In an example, the contents of the mixer are maintained at about 0° C. In another example, the contents of the mixer are maintained at less than about 15° C. In certain embodiments, the reaction temperature and/or reaction time of the mixture in the mixer are controlled. In certain embodiments, the reaction time and/or reaction temperature are maintained below a suitable value (e.g., such that contents of the mixer are maintained at a temperature of about 0° C. or at a temperature of less than about 15° C.). In certain embodiments, the reaction temperature is decreased, for example, by cooling tubes or coils around the mixer bowl, by immersing the mixer bowl in a temperature-controlled bath (e.g., a thermostat-controlled bath or an ice bath), by other cooling methods, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the cooling coils/tubes circulate chilled water. In certain embodiments, the flow rate of the chilled water is increased in order to decrease the temperature. In certain embodiments, the temperature of the chilled water is decreased in order to decrease the temperature. In certain embodiments, the reaction temperature and/or reaction time is varied by changing a rate of addition of one or more reactants to the contents of the mixer bowl (e.g., the temperature is decreased by decreasing a rate at which a reactant that leads to an exothermic reaction is added). In certain embodiments, the contents of the mixer bowl are at a pH of less than or equal to about 7, 6, 5, 4 or 3.5. In certain embodiments, the contents of the mixer bowl are at a pH of less than or equal to about 7.0, 6.9, 6.8, 6.7, 6.6, 6.5, 6.4, 6.3, 6.2, 6.1, 6.0, 5.9, 5.8, 5.7, 5.6, 5.5, 5.4, 5.3, 5.2, 5.1, 5.0, 4.9, 4.8, 4.7, 4.6, 4.5, 4.4, 4.3, 4.2, 4.1, 4.0, 3.9, 3.8, 3.7, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, 3.0, 2.9, 2.8, 2.7, 2.6, 2.5, 2.4, 2.3, 2.2, 2.1, 2.0, 1.9, 1.8, 1.7, 1.6, 1.5, 1.4, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1, 1.0, 0.9, 0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, or about 0.1.

     In certain embodiments, mixing (e.g., in the mixer and/or in the tank) is achieved through non-mechanical means (e.g., with gas injection, rotary drums, magnetic stirring rods, or other means). In some embodiments, the system  100  comprises a filter (not shown). For example, in certain embodiments, the tank is coupled (e.g., via a diaphragm pump in fluid communication with the drain valve  118 ) to a filter configured to separate or purify one or more components of the tank mixture. In certain embodiments, the filter allows, for example, end product (e.g., an oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition), sediment(s) and/or other components (e.g., water runoff) to be separated. For example, in certain embodiments, leftovers are neutralized in a separate vessel, wherein the filter is configured to hold or contain sediments and/or water runoff. In certain embodiments, the filter removes one or more acids and/or salts to bring the tank mixture (e.g., a tank mixture comprising an oxidized form of a carbonaceous composition such as, for example, an oxidized form of graphite such as GO) to a neutral state and/or reduce the tank mixture. In certain embodiments, the filter includes one or more types of filters (e.g., for removal of acids, removal of salts, reduction, and/or other filtration or treatment purposes). For example, in certain embodiments, the filter (e.g., a filter for the first reaction described in greater detail elsewhere herein) takes out acid(s) and salt(s) to bring the tank mixture to a neutral state and/or reduce the tank mixture using a single filter, or 2 or more different types of filters (e.g., filtering/removal is performed by a first filter, and reduction is performed by a second filter, or both filters perform filtering/removal and reduction to same or different extents). 
     In certain embodiments, at least a portion of the system  100  is mobile.

In certain embodiments, other forms of temperature regulation, including, for example, convection heating or cooling are implemented in addition to or instead of cooling tubes. 
     With continued reference to  FIG. 4 , top and bottom views of the flange  436  are shown on the top left and bottom left, respectively. In certain embodiments, chamber mounts  438  are used to fasten the mixer bowl to the flange (and/or to a fixture such as the mixer). In certain embodiments, bolt holes  437  are used to fasten the flange to the mixer and/or to another fixture. 
     In an example, the mixer bowl  401  comprises a 20 quart (5 gallon) reaction chamber. The mixer bowl is in fluid communication with a 2½ inch butterfly valve  413  having a diameter (or width) of about 6 inches. At least about 95 feet of ⅜ inch copper cooling tube is wound around the mixing bowl (e.g., split into two or more sections  434 ,  435 ). The flange  436  is affixed by bolts through ½ inch bolt holes  437 . In certain embodiments, such a mixer bowl and reaction chamber is used in a system comprising a tank that comprises a 100 gallon ice bath (comprising, for example, at least about 150 pounds of ice). 
       FIGS. 5A-5B  show schematics of a tank  502  (e.g., the tank  102  in  FIG. 1 ) and related components. In certain embodiments, the tank comprises a top (e.g., a plexiglass top)  540  (top left in  FIG. 5A ). In certain embodiments, the plexiglass top comprises one or more parts. In certain embodiments, ice auger shaft holes  541  are provided (e.g., between two separate parts). In certain embodiments, magnetic strips  542  are coupled to the plexiglass top (e.g., for easy closure of the tank). In certain embodiments, the tank further comprises a bottom  543  (top right in  FIG. 5A ). In certain embodiments, the bottom is formed, for example, of metal or another suitable material. In certain embodiments, the bottom comprises ice auger bracket mounts  544 . In certain embodiments, the tank further comprises a mixer mounting plate  545  (top and side views shown at bottom in  FIG. 5A ). In certain embodiments, the mixer mounting plate is placed at the top of the tank. In certain embodiments, the mixer mounting plate comprises mixer bolt holes  546  to which a mixer is affixed. In certain embodiments, mixer cleats  547  are used to keep the mixer from moving along with the bolts. 
       FIG. 5B  shows side views of the tank  502  along direction y 1  (top) and y 2  (bottom). In certain embodiments, the tank is positioned on casters  516 . In certain embodiments, the tank comprises a drain area  548 . In certain embodiments, the tank drains via a fitting  549  connected to a 90° fip  550 . In certain embodiments, the 90° fip  550  connects to a drain valve (e.g., an acid-proof ball valve)  518  via a nipple  551 . 
     In an example, a 100 gallon tank  502  (e.g., a 100 gallon ice tank containing a 100 gallon ice bath comprising, for example, at least about 150 pounds of ice) comprises a plexiglass top  540 . In certain embodiments, the plexiglass top  540  comprises a first portion with a width of about 21% inches and a length of about 23½ inches, and a second portion with a width of about 21% inches and a length of about 5% inches (top left in  FIG. 5A ). In certain embodiments, the tank further comprises a bottom  543  having a width of about 21% inches and a length of about 46 inches (top right in  FIG. 5A ). In certain embodiments, the mixer mounting plate  545  has a width of about 21% inches and a length of about 16 inches with a cutout extending about 9 inches into the plate (bottom in  FIG. 5A ). In certain embodiments, the tank is about 22 inches wide (top in  FIG. 5B ) and about 46 inches long (bottom in  FIG. 5B ). In certain embodiments, the tank is about 26 inches deep. In certain embodiments, the bottom of the tank is about 9½ inches above ground. In certain embodiments, the tank is drained via a 1½ inch mip fitting  549  connected to a 1½ inch 90° fip  550 , a 1½× close nipple  551  and a drain valve  518 . 
     In certain embodiments, a system for carrying out a reaction (e.g., a first reaction system or apparatus) comprises one or more subsystems or portions. In some embodiments, a first reaction system (e.g., a system for oxidizing a carbonaceous composition such as, for example, a graphite feedstock) comprises a scalable reactor as shown in  FIG. 44 . In certain embodiments, each such subsystem or portion comprises one or more components such as mixers, agitators, vessels, cooling systems, or other components (e.g., as described in  FIGS. 1-3 ). In certain embodiments, a first reaction system comprises any component(s) of such subsystems or portions.

     The methods, devices and systems herein offer significant advantages with respect to existing options for manufacturing, synthesis or processing of materials. In certain embodiments, the methods, devices and systems herein enable scalable, high volume manufacturing, synthesis or processing of materials. For example, in certain embodiments, the devices and systems described herein include an apparatus comprising a tank, a mixer and a tank agitator. In certain embodiments, the tank comprises a carbonaceous composition (e.g., graphite). In certain embodiments, the mixer is mounted to the tank. In certain embodiments, the mixer is in fluid communication with the tank. In certain embodiments, the tank agitator is mechanically coupled to the mixer. In certain embodiments, the tank agitator is configured to agitate the carbonaceous composition in the tank, thereby forming an oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition (e.g., graphite oxide) at a rate of greater than about, for example, 1 tonne (metric ton) per year (tpy). In some embodiments, the apparatus form the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition at a rate of greater than or equal to about 100 grams (g) per year, 200 g per year, 500 g per year, 750 g per year, 1 kilogram (kg) per year, 10 kg per year, 25 kg per year, 50 kg per year, 75 kg per year, 0.1 tpy, 0.2 tpy, 0.3 tpy, 0.4 tpy, 0.5 tpy, 0.6 tpy, 0.7 tpy, 0.8 tpy, 0.9 tpy, 1 tpy, 2 tpy, 3 tpy, 4 tpy, 5 tpy, 10 tpy, 25 tpy, 50 tpy, 75 tpy, 100 tpy, 200 tpy, 500 tpy, 750 tpy, 1,000 tpy (1 ktpy), 2,000 tpy, 3,000 tpy, 4,000 tpy, 5,000 tpy, 6,000 tpy, 7,000 tpy, 8,000 tpy, 9,000 tpy, 10,000 tpy or more. In certain embodiments, the apparatus (e.g., the system  100 ) is used for batch manufacturing, synthesis or processing (i.e., run as a batch process). In certain embodiments, as described in greater detail elsewhere herein, the methods, devices and systems herein are scalable. In some embodiments, the apparatus forms the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition at a rate of greater than or equal to about 1 g, 2 g, 4 g, 6 g, 8 g, 10 g, 25 g, 50 g, 75 g, 100 g, 250 g, 500 g, 750 g, 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 6 kg, 8 kg, 10 kg, 15 kg, 25 kg, 50 kg, 75 kg, 100 kg, 250 kg, 500 kg, 750 kg, 1 tonne (t), 2 t, 4 t, 6 t, 8 t, 10 t, 15 t, 25 t, 50 t, 75 t, 100 t, 250 t, 500 t, 750 t or 1,000 t per batch. As used herein, a “batch” refers to an amount of material (e.g., carbonaceous composition, oxidized form of a carbonaceous composition, reduced form of a carbonaceous composition, GO, rGO, etc.) formed, produced, processed, filtered, and/or generated together as a group using the methods, apparatuses, or systems described herein. In an example, a batch of GO is produced using a process comprising a first reaction in a reaction vessel, wherein the batch comprises an amount of GO that is oxidized in the first reaction. In another example, a batch of GO is produced using a process comprising a first reaction and a first filtration, wherein the batch of GO comprises an amount of GO that is oxidized in the first reaction and subsequently filtered by the first filtration. In another example, a batch of rGO is produced using a process comprising a first reaction, a first filtration, a second reaction, and a second filtration, wherein the batch of rGO comprises an amount that is oxidized in the first reaction, filtered in the first filtration, reduced in the second reaction, and filtered in the second filtration. In an example, the apparatus forms in one day an amount of the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition corresponding to 6 months&#39; production using an apparatus capable of only producing 1 gram at a time. 
     Another aspect of the invention provides a method for the manufacture (or synthesis) or processing of materials. In certain embodiments, the method is used to manufacture oxidized forms of carbonaceous compositions. In certain embodiments, the devices and systems herein (e.g., the devices and systems of  FIGS. 1-5 ) are used for such manufacture (e.g., manufacture of oxidized forms of carbonaceous compositions). In certain embodiments, graphite oxide is synthesized from graphite. In certain embodiments, the graphite oxide includes graphite oxide in solution. In certain embodiments, graphite oxide, as used herein, includes graphene oxide (and vice versa). Graphite oxide and graphene oxide are collectively referred to herein as GO. In certain embodiments, aspects of the disclosure described in relation to graphite oxide equally apply to graphene oxide at least in some configurations. 
       FIG. 6  schematically shows an example of a method or procedure  600  for manufacturing (or synthesizing) graphite oxide from graphite. In certain embodiments, the method in  FIG. 6  is implemented using the systems and methods herein (e.g., the devices and systems of  FIGS. 1-5 ). With reference to  FIG. 6 , a batch (e.g., 1*x grams (g) or y*x g, where y is a factor greater than or less than 1) of graphite oxide is produced by, in a first step A, adding about 15*x g of graphite to about 750*x milliliters (ml) of concentrated sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) at a first temperature of about 0° C. The sulfuric acid is contained in a mixer (e.g., in a mixer bowl), and the graphite is added to the sulfuric acid in the mixer. The first temperature is maintained using an ice bath (e.g., the mixer bowl is immersed in the ice bath), cooling coils/tubes, or a combination thereof. In a second step B, the synthesis includes adding about 90*x g potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) to the mixer while maintaining a second temperature of less than about 15° C. The addition of the potassium permanganate to the mixture comprising graphite and concentrated sulfuric acid at a temperature of about 0° C. initiates an exothermic (e.g., self-heated) reaction. In certain embodiments, the second temperature is maintained, for example, by the cooling coils/tubes. For example, by adding chilled water to the cooling coils/tubes (also “chiller” herein) around the mixer bowl (e.g., reaction bowl), the temperature is decreased. In certain embodiments, the second temperature is controlled or maintained by the pace at which the potassium permanganate is added (e.g., thereby controlling the heating). For example, if more heat (increased temperature) is desired, the potassium permanganate is added at a faster pace. In certain embodiments, if a cooler temperature is desired, the chiller is set to a lower temperature and/or the flow or rate of addition of the potassium permanganate is decreased. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises, in a third step C, stirring the reaction mixture (e.g., at the second temperature) in the mixer for about 45 minutes. In certain embodiments, in a fourth step D, quenching is achieved by combining the mixture with about 2.6*x kilograms (kg) ice and then adding about 75*x ml of 30% hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). In certain embodiments, the fourth step includes transferring (e.g., via the butterfly valve  113  or  213 ) the contents of the mixer bowl to the tank and then adding the hydrogen peroxide. In certain embodiments, the ice bath stops the reaction and/or cools the reaction. In certain embodiments, the hydrogen peroxide is added to stop the reaction. In certain embodiments, the butterfly valve allows the GO to be transferred into the water/ice tank for cooling. In certain embodiments, a fifth step (not shown) includes purifying by 5 H 2 O washes, followed by about 1 week of continuous-flow dialysis. In certain embodiments, x is a scaling factor of greater than or equal to about 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, or more. For example, in certain embodiments, in a system comprising a tank with at least about 150 pounds of ice, x is at least about 26. 
     In certain embodiments, the methods, devices and systems herein are scalable. In an example, the graphite oxide synthesis method herein is performed using a tank with a volume of at least about 100 gallons. In certain embodiments, the mixer has a volume of at least about 20 quarts (5 gallons). In certain embodiments, the tank holds or contains a liquid (e.g., water and/or the reaction mixture from the mixer bowl) and at least about 150 pounds of ice. For example, in certain embodiments, raw materials other than ice are added to the reaction chamber/mixing bowl, and ice is directly added to a 100 gallon tank. In certain embodiments, final products come out at the bottom of the 100 gallon tank. In another example, the volume of the mixer is at least about 320 quarts (80 gallons) and the volume of the tank (e.g., ice tank) is at least about 1,600 gallons (e.g., the volume of the mixer and tank are each scaled by a factor of 16). In yet another example, the volume of the tank (e.g., ice tank) is at least about 3,000 gallons, 3,500 gallons or 4,000 gallons (e.g., as high as about 4,000 gallons). In certain embodiments, the tank is used with, for example, the mixer having a volume of at least about 320 quarts (80 gallons), or with a mixer having a different volume. For example, in certain embodiments, several (e.g., at least 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 25, 50, 75 or 100) mixers are used with a single large tank (e.g., see  FIG. 44 ). In certain embodiments, the number and size/volume of mixers scale with the size/volume of the tank. For example, a tank with a volume V t  is used with one or more mixers having a volume less than or equal to V m , where V m  is a maximum suitable mixer volume for a given V t . Further, in certain embodiments, when multiple mixers are used with a single tank, the mixers have the same size/volume. In certain embodiments, when multiple mixers are used with a single tank, the mixers do not have the same size/volume. Thus, in certain embodiments, different mixer combinations are used. For example, in certain embodiments, a mixer with a volume of at least about 5 gallons or 80 gallons is used with a tank with a volume between about 100 gallons and about 4,000 gallons (e.g., alone or in combination with one or more other mixers). In some cases, one or more portions of the mixers (e.g., a motor) are shared to increase efficiency. 
     In certain embodiments, the devices and systems described herein are scaled up (e.g., more ice in a bigger system). In some embodiments, the scaling is the same (e.g., the scaling factor x is the same for all components). In some embodiments, different components (e.g., tank and mixer bowl) have at least about 1%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, or 50% different scaling factors. In certain embodiments, different components in the first reaction system, first reaction filter, second reactions system, and/or second reaction filter are scaled up at least 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, or 100% of sizes and/or dimensions provided herein. In certain embodiments, different components in the first reaction system, first reaction filter, second reactions system, and/or second reaction filter are scaled up at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, or 1000 times the sizes and/or dimensions provided herein. In certain embodiments, at least a portion of the components (e.g., mixer bowl) are scaled such that given dimensions and proportions stay consistent. For example, in certain embodiments, the mixer bowl or the tank has a given shape configured to achieve efficient agitation and/or mixing. In certain embodiments, such dimensions are kept consistent when scaling up such components (e.g., location and/or clearance of tank agitator blades are such that their relative position and size with respect to the tank remain approximately the same upon scaling up, or the mixing bowl shape is increased or decreased in volume without changing relative dimensions, etc.). 
     In certain embodiments, graphite oxide or graphene oxide (GO) comprises one or more functional groups. For example, in certain embodiments, GO comprises one or more epoxy bridges, one or more hydroxyl groups, one or more carbonyl groups, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the GO comprises a level of oxidation. For example, in certain embodiments, GO comprises a Carbon to Oxygen ratio (C:O ratio) between 2.1 and 2.9. 
     In certain embodiments, reduced graphite oxide or reduced graphene oxide, collectively referred to herein as rGO, comprises graphene. 
     In certain embodiments, a carbonaceous composition comprises a given type or quality. For example, in certain embodiments, a carbonaceous composition comprises a graphite feedstock. In certain embodiments, the graphite feedstock includes various grades or purities (e.g., carbon content measured as, for example, weight-% graphitic carbon (C g )), types (e.g., amorphous graphite (e.g., 60-85% carbon), flake graphite (e.g., greater than 85% carbon) or vein graphite (e.g., greater than 90% carbon)), sizes (e.g., mesh size), shapes (e.g., large flake, medium, flake, powder or spherical graphite) and origin (e.g., synthetic or natural, such as, for example, natural flake graphite). In certain embodiments, such characteristic(s) (e.g., physical and chemical properties) affect the type or quality of the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition. For example, in certain embodiments, the mesh size of the graphite affects the resulting GO. In certain embodiments, the graphite has a grade or carbon content of at greater than or equal to about 1%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% (e.g., by weight). In certain embodiments, the graphite has a grade or carbon content of at less than about 100%, 99%, 98%, 97%, 96%, 95%, 94%, 93%, 92%, 91%, 90%, 85%, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 5%, 2% or 1% (e.g., by weight). In certain embodiments, the graphite has such grades or carbon contents at a mesh size of greater than or equal to about −200, −150, −100, −80, −50, −48, +48, +80, +100, +150 or +200 mesh size. 
     In certain embodiments, a carbonaceous composition is processed into one or more types of oxidized form(s) of the carbonaceous composition. For example, in certain embodiments, different oxidized forms or different types of the same oxidized form are generated depending on reaction conditions and/or configuration/operation of the devices and systems herein (e.g., as a result of how the machine in  FIG. 1  works). In some embodiments, such factors influence the resulting synthesis product alone or in combination with the feedstock type or quality (e.g., graphite input specifications). In an example, graphite feedstock is transformed to single-layer GO or multi-layer GO. In certain embodiments, the two types of GO have different properties and/or end products/uses. In certain embodiments, the properties include, for example, physicochemical properties and/or performance characteristics (e.g., conductivity or purity). For example, in certain embodiments, single-layer GO and multi-layer GO have different conductive properties. 
     In certain embodiments, end products/uses for single-layer GO and multi-layer GO, or materials derived therefrom (e.g., ICCN, graphene, etc.), include, for example, energy conversion/storage (e.g., (super)capacitors, batteries, fuel cells, photovoltaics or thermoelectrics), catalysis, sensing (e.g., chemical and biological sensing), scaffolds/support, nanofillers, lightweighting and structural materials (e.g., graphene chassis/parts or turbine blades), optical electronics (e.g., touchscreens), semiconductors (e.g., graphene combined with molybdenite (MoS 2 )), information storage, transparent materials, superconductors (e.g., graphene interspersed with magnesium diboride (MgB 2 )), medical treatment and/or biochemical assays (e.g., DNA analysis), nonlinear optical materials, filtration and/or water purification, coatings, paper (e.g., graphene oxide paper), lenses, and so on. In an example, in certain embodiments, end products/uses for single-layer GO include hybrid supercapacitors and/or lithium-ion batteries, and end products/uses for multi-layer GO includes high density supercapacitors. In certain embodiments, the GO is further transformed or processed prior to such uses. In certain embodiments, when a given GO feedstock is further processed, the resulting material(s) have certain physicochemical and/or performance characteristics.

In certain embodiments, the resulting material has different properties (e.g., capacitance during end use in a capacitor, characteristics during end use in a battery, etc.) that depend on the type of GO feedstock. In certain embodiments, the end products/uses herein include, for example, end products/uses of graphene oxide and/or various rGOs (e.g., graphene).

In certain embodiments, a method for synthesis comprises providing a carbonaceous composition and producing a second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition by a second transformation of the carbonaceous composition over a second time period. In certain embodiments, a difference between a method for producing a first oxidized form and a method for producing a second oxidized form comprises a difference in the duration of the time period (e.g. duration difference between the first and second time periods). In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition has at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180 or 200 times greater capacitance than when comprising a second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition produced by a second transformation of the carbonaceous composition over a second time period that is at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 times longer than the first time period. In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition has a greater capacitance than when comprising a second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition produced by a second transformation of the carbonaceous composition over a second time period that is longer than the first time period over a range of reaction conditions. In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition has at least about 2 times greater capacitance than when comprising a second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition produced by a second transformation of the carbonaceous composition over a second time period that is at least about 5 times longer than the first time period. In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition has at least about 10 times greater capacitance than when comprising the second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition. In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition has at least about 50 times greater capacitance than when comprising the second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition. In certain embodiments, the second time period is at least about 8 times longer than the first time period. In certain embodiments, the capacitance is at least about 10 times greater over a range of reaction conditions. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises tuning the reaction conditions to further increase the capacitance. In certain embodiments, a time period (e.g., a first or second time period) for a transformation (e.g., a reaction) ends when the reaction is quenched (e.g., when ice and hydrogen peroxide are added to an oxidation reaction comprising a carbonaceous composition, sulfuric acid, and potassium permanganate). 
     In certain embodiments, aspects of the disclosure described in relation to an oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition equally apply to a material derived from the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition at least in some configurations, and vice versa. In an example, in certain embodiments, a capacitor (e.g., a double layer capacitor/supercapacitor) comprising the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition or a material derived therefrom (e.g., a reduced form of the first oxidized carbonaceous composition) has at least about 2, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180 or 200 times greater capacitance than when comprising the second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition or a material derived therefrom (e.g., a reduced form of the second oxidized carbonaceous composition). In another example, in certain embodiments, an apparatus of the disclosure forms an oxidized form of a carbonaceous composition and/or a material derived therefrom (e.g., a reduced form of the oxidized carbonaceous composition) at a rate of greater than or equal to about 100 grams (g) per year, 200 g per year, 500 g per year, 750 g per year, 1 kilogram (kg) per year, 10 kg per year, 25 kg per year, 50 kg per year, 75 kg per year, 0.1 tpy, 0.2 tpy, 0.3 tpy, 0.4 tpy, 0.5 tpy, 0.6 tpy, 0.7 tpy, 0.8 tpy, 0.9 tpy, 1 tpy, 2 tpy, 3 tpy, 4 tpy, 5 tpy, 10 tpy, 25 tpy, 50 tpy, 75 tpy, 100 tpy, 200 tpy, 500 tpy, 750 tpy, 1,000 tpy (1 ktpy), 2,000 tpy, 3,000 tpy, 4,000 tpy, 5,000 tpy, 6,000 tpy, 7,000 tpy, 8,000 tpy, 9,000 tpy, 10,000 tpy or more.

In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising electrodes comprising a reduced graphene oxide or reduced graphite oxide synthesized according to the systems and methods described herein provides a peak capacitance of at least about 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950, or 1000 mF/cm 2  at a scan rate of about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 mV/s. In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising electrodes comprising a graphite oxide, graphene oxide, or a material derived therefrom synthesized according to the systems and methods described herein provides a peak capacitance of at least about 200 mF/cm 2  at a scan rate of about 10 mV/s. In certain embodiments, a capacitor comprising electrodes comprising the reduced graphite oxide or reduced graphene oxide synthesized according to the systems and methods described herein provides a peak capacitance of at least about 200 mF/cm 2  at a scan rate of about 10 mV/s. In certain embodiments, a device comprising an electrode comprising the graphite oxide, graphene oxide, or a material derived therefrom synthesized according to the systems and methods described herein provides at least about 56 times greater capacitance than a device comprising graphite oxide, graphene oxide, or a material derived therefrom synthesized using a different system or method. In certain embodiments, a device comprising an electrode comprising the reduced graphite oxide or reduced graphene oxide synthesized according to the systems and methods described herein provides at least about 56 times greater capacitance than a device comprising reduced graphite oxide or reduced graphene oxide synthesized using a different system or method. In certain embodiments, the device is a capacitor (e.g., a supercapacitor). 
     In certain embodiments, the carbonaceous composition comprises graphite. In certain embodiments, the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition comprises graphite oxide or graphene oxide. In certain embodiments, the second oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition comprises graphite oxide or graphene oxide. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises reducing the first oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition back to the carbonaceous composition or to another de-oxidized carbonaceous composition substantially similar to or different from the carbonaceous composition (e.g., rGO). 
       FIG. 7  shows an example of a measurement of capacitance versus reaction time. Reaction conditions included: 6× mass ratio Ox:Gr, self-heated (exothermic), 0-20 hours. Peak capacitance at 10 mV/s was 49 mF/cm 2  at 20 minutes. In this example, allowing the reaction to self-heat and proceed for an extended period of time produces devices with lower capacitances over that time. In some embodiments, during the first transformation, increasing a time during which a self-heated reaction is allowed to proceed decreases maximum capacitance over that time. 
     In some embodiments, the self-heated reaction is initiated by adding potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) to a mixture comprising graphite and concentrated sulfuric acid at a temperature of about 0° C. 
       FIG. 8  shows another example of a measurement of capacitance versus reaction time. Reaction conditions included: 6× mass ratio Ox:Gr, self-heated (exothermic), 0-2 hours. Peak capacitance at 10 mV/s was 87 mF/cm 2  at 15 minutes. In this example, shorter reaction times lead to higher capacitances by retaining a more pristine sp2 structure of graphene with less oxidative damage. In some embodiments, during the first transformation, decreasing a reaction time of an at least partially self-heated reaction increases maximum capacitance by retaining a more suitable structure of the carbonaceous composition with less oxidative damage. 
       FIG. 9  shows yet another example of a measurement of capacitance versus reaction time. Reaction conditions included: 6× mass ratio Ox:Gr, cooled by ice bath, 0-2 hours. Peak capacitance at 10 mV/s was 459 mF/cm 2  at 45 minutes. In this example, colder reaction temperatures leads to a greater window of opportunity to quench the reaction at the right time. In some embodiments, during the first transformation, decreasing a reaction temperature leads to a greater window of opportunity to quench the reaction at a suitable time. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises decreasing the reaction temperature through cooling by an ice bath. In certain embodiments, a reaction run below ambient reaction temperature (i) shows improved capacitance over a short period of time, (ii) leads to a safer, more controlled reaction, or (iii) a combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the ambient reaction temperature is the reaction temperature at ambient conditions.

       FIGS. 11A-11B  provide a comparison of a cyclic voltammetry (CV) scan of a double layer device (double layer capacitor) constructed from the sample in  FIG. 9  at a scan rate of 1000 mV/s ( FIG. 11A ) with results of El-Kady M. F., et al., “Laser scribing of high-performance and flexible graphene-based electrochemical capacitors,” Science, 335(6074), 1326 (2012), incorporated by reference herein with respect to the relevant portions therein ( FIG. 11B ). The device in  FIG. 11A  comprises one or more electrodes comprising a material derived from GO manufactured as described herein (e.g., in accordance with the method in  FIG. 6 ). In certain embodiments, the device in  FIG. 11A  has a capacitance (e.g., peak capacitance at 1000 mV/s) that is at least about 35 times greater than a capacitance (e.g., peak capacitance at 1000 mV/s) of the device in  FIG. 11B . Other examples of enhanced capacitances using materials manufactured in accordance with the present disclosure are provided elsewhere herein. 
       FIG. 12  shows capacitance as a function of number of hydrochloric acid (HCl) washes. In this example, comparing the effects of washing the product (e.g., of the method of  FIG. 6 ) with between 0-5 HCl washes shows that HCl washes are unnecessary. Reaction conditions included: 6× mass ratio Ox:Gr, cooled by ice bath, 0-1 hour, variable HCl washes. Peak capacitance at 10 mV/s was 261 mF/cm 2  at 31 minutes. An 11% variation in capacitance between all numbers of washes with no visible trend was observed. 
     In certain embodiments, a method for synthesis (e.g., the method of  FIG. 6 ) comprises providing graphite, and transforming the graphite to graphite oxide without the aid of hydrochloric acid at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 times faster than with the aid of hydrochloric acid. In certain embodiments, a method for synthesis comprises providing graphite, and transforming the graphite to graphite oxide without the aid of hydrochloric acid at least about 2 times faster than with the aid of hydrochloric acid. In some embodiments, the method comprises transforming the graphite to graphite oxide without the aid of hydrochloric acid at least about 5 times faster than with the aid of hydrochloric acid. In some embodiments, the method comprises transforming the graphite to graphite oxide without the aid of hydrochloric acid at least about 8 times faster than with the aid of hydrochloric acid. 
     In certain embodiments, the method comprises synthesizing graphite oxide at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 times faster than modified Hummers method. In certain embodiments, the method comprises synthesizing graphite oxide at least about 8 times faster than modified Hummers method. In certain embodiments, the graphite oxide is synthesized in less or equal to about 1 week. In certain embodiments, the method produces less waste per mass graphite oxide produced than modified Hummers method. In certain embodiments, the method produces repeatable results. In certain embodiments, the graphite oxide is synthesized without air drying. 
     In some embodiments, hydrochloric acid is not consumed in the synthesis of the graphite oxide herein. In certain embodiments, hydrochloric acid washes used for purification by modified Hummers method are eliminated, thereby leading to faster purification compared to the modified Hummers method. In certain embodiments, subjecting the graphite oxide to one or more hydrochloric acid washes has substantially no effect on capacitance. In certain embodiments, removal of hydrochloric acid from purification steps shows no loss of capacitance, significantly reduce cost of the graphite oxide, expedite purification procedure, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, the method comprises synthesizing graphite oxide at a cost per mass of graphite oxide of at least about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 times less than modified Hummers method. In one example, the method comprises synthesizing graphite oxide at a cost per mass of graphite oxide of at least about 4 times less than modified Hummers method. 
     In certain embodiments, the method comprises a set of exact steps that lead to acceptable and reproducible synthesis product each time the synthesis is performed. In certain embodiments, the method allows human error and/or reliance on human judgement to be reduced by eliminating one or more synthesis steps associated therewith. In certain embodiments, the human error and/or reliance on human judgement is associated with controlling a rate of addition of water and/or ice over time. 
     In certain embodiments, the method comprises synthesizing graphite oxide at an average or maximum temperature of (i) less than about 45° C. or (ii) at least about 30° C. less than an average or maximum temperature used in modified Hummers method. In certain embodiments, the reduced average or maximum temperature reduces a risk of explosion, thereby increasing safety. 
     In certain embodiments, a batch of graphite oxide (e.g., 1 g of graphite oxide) is produced by: (a) adding 15 g graphite to 750 ml concentrated sulfuric acid at a first temperature of about 0° C., wherein the first temperature is maintained using an ice bath; (b) adding 90 g potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) while maintaining a second temperature of less than about 15° C.; (c) stirring the mixture in (b) for about 45 minutes; (d) quenching by adding the mixture in (c) to 2.6 kg ice and then adding 75 ml of 30% H 2 O 2 ; and (e) purifying by 5 H 2 O washes, followed by about 1 week of continuous-flow dialysis. In certain embodiments, the addition in (b) leads to an exothermic reaction. 
     In certain embodiments, the methods herein includes procedures of making oxidized forms of carbonaceous compositions, procedures of making materials derived from the oxidized forms of carbonaceous compositions, or both. For example, in certain embodiments, the methods herein includes procedure(s) of making both GO and graphene/reduced graphite oxide. In certain embodiments, GO is formed from graphite in a first reaction. In certain embodiments, the first reaction includes an oxidation (e.g. oxidation reaction). In certain embodiments, the GO is treated (e.g., filtered/purified, concentrated if end product, etc.). In certain embodiments, the GO is reduced (e.g., to graphene, ICCN, or any other materials derived through reduction of GO) in a second reaction. In certain embodiments, the second reaction includes a reduction. For example, in certain embodiments, the GO is reduced to form graphene and/or other reduced forms of GO, collectively referred to herein as reduced graphite oxide (rGO). In certain embodiments, rGO includes reduced forms graphite oxide and/or graphene oxide. In certain embodiments, any aspects of the disclosure described in relation to graphene equally apply to rGO at least in some configurations, and vice versa. In certain embodiments, the rGO (e.g., graphene) is treated. 
     In some embodiments, single-layer GO is manufactured. In certain embodiments, the manufacture or method (e.g., first reaction) uses about 32 liters (L) 98% sulfuric acid per kg graphite. In certain embodiments, about 4.8 kg potassium permanganate powder per kg graphite is used. In certain embodiments, the method includes include cooking time. In certain embodiments, the method does not include cooking time. In certain embodiments, the method includes given temperatures and process(es). In certain embodiments, the method includes, from the beginning of the reaction, about 1.5 hour of addition of potassium permanganate (reaction temperature less than about 15° C.), about 2 hours of reaction time (reaction temperature range of about 20-30° C.), about 1 hour of addition of about 32 kg ice (reaction temperature of about 50° C.) and about 1 hour reaction time (reaction temperature of about 50° C.). In certain embodiments, about 72 kg ice per kg graphite is used to quench reaction and/or for ice for reaction cooling. In certain embodiments, about 2 L 30% hydrogen peroxide per kg of graphite is used to quench reaction and/or for neutralizing. In certain embodiments, the graphite is a given type. In certain embodiments, the graphite comprises 325sh natural flake graphite. In certain embodiments, mixing speed (e.g., during one or more reaction processes) is about 100 rpm. In certain embodiments, the method includes timing the mixing of ingredients. In certain embodiments, sulfuric acid and graphite are premixed to minimize graphite dust and then added to the reactor rapidly. In certain embodiments, the addition of potassium permanganate results in an exothermic reaction. In certain embodiments, the potassium permanganate is added at a rate slow enough to keep the reaction temperature below about 15° C. (e.g., the potassium permanganate is added over approximately 1.5 hours). In certain embodiments, the potassium permanganate is added at a rate slow enough in combination with a cooling mechanism (e.g. cooling pipes and/or addition of ice) to keep the reaction temperature below about 15° C. 
     In some embodiments, multi-layer GO is manufactured. In certain embodiments, manufacture or method (e.g., first reaction) uses about 25 L 98% sulfuric acid per kg graphite. In certain embodiments, about 2 kg potassium permanganate per kg graphite oxide is used. In certain embodiments, the method includes cooking time. In certain embodiments, the method does not include cooking time. In certain embodiments, method includes given temperatures and process(es). In certain embodiments, method includes addition of potassium permanganate over 45 minutes (reaction temperature less than about 15° C.) and a 30 minute reaction time (reaction temperature of about 15° C.). In certain embodiments, about 125 kg ice per kg graphite is used to quench reaction and/or for ice for reaction cooling. In certain embodiments, about 1 L 30% hydrogen peroxide per kg of graphite is used to quench reaction and/or for neutralizing. In certain embodiments, graphite is a given type. In certain embodiments, graphite is highly exfoliated and milled, small flake, large surface area graphite, 9 micron flakes, or any combination thereof. In certain embodiments, mixing speed (e.g., during one or more reaction processes) is about 100 rpm. In certain embodiments, the method includes timing the mixing of ingredients. In certain embodiments, sulfuric acid and graphite are premixed to minimize graphite dust and then added to the reactor rapidly. In certain embodiments, addition of potassium permanganate results in an exothermic reaction. In certain embodiments, the potassium permanganate is added at a rate slow enough to keep the reaction temperature below about 15° C. (e.g., the potassium permanganate is added over approximately 1.5 hours). 
     In certain embodiments, a first filtration is performed after the first reaction. In certain embodiments, the first filtration includes post-oxidation purification. In certain embodiments, the purpose or goal of the first filtration (e.g., regardless it how it is done) is to remove impurities from the crude product and bring the pH up to at least about 5. In certain embodiments, the after oxidation (reaction 1), the crude product contains GO as well as one or more (e.g., several) impurities such as, for example, sulfuric acid, manganese oxides and manganese sulfate. In certain embodiments, after purification is complete, the GO is then concentrated to, for example, a solution of about 1% by weight. In certain embodiments, water and/or acid from first reaction is removed during filtration. In certain embodiments, after the first reaction, the acid concentration is about 30% (single-layer) or about 16% (multi-layer) sulfuric acid, corresponding to a pH of approximately 0. In certain embodiments, filtration is complete when the pH reaches about 5, corresponding to an acid concentration of about 0.00005%. In certain embodiments, a given amount or degree of concentration is needed for GO sales and/or straight graphene use (e.g., if used as feedstock for second reaction). In certain embodiments, the GO (e.g., most GO) is sold or used in dry powder form and/or an aqueous solution of about 2% (by weight). In some embodiments, the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition is filtered via a first filtration at a rate of greater than or equal to about 100 grams (g) per year, 200 g per year, 500 g per year, 750 g per year, 1 kilogram (kg) per year, 10 kg per year, 25 kg per year, 50 kg per year, 75 kg per year, 0.1 tpy, 0.2 tpy, 0.3 tpy, 0.4 tpy, 0.5 tpy, 0.6 tpy, 0.7 tpy, 0.8 tpy, 0.9 tpy, 1 tpy, 2 tpy, 3 tpy, 4 tpy, 5 tpy, 10 tpy, 25 tpy, 50 tpy, 75 tpy, 100 tpy, 200 tpy, 500 tpy, 750 tpy, 1,000 tpy (1 ktpy), 2,000 tpy, 3,000 tpy, 4,000 tpy, 5,000 tpy, 6,000 tpy, 7,000 tpy, 8,000 tpy, 9,000 tpy, 10,000 tpy or more. In certain embodiments, the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition is filtered using a first reaction filter as a batch process. In certain embodiments, as described in greater detail elsewhere herein, the methods, devices and systems herein are scalable. In some embodiments, the first reaction filter is used to filter the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition at a rate of greater than or equal to about 1 g, 2 g, 4 g, 6 g, 8 g, 10 g, 25 g, 50 g, 75 g, 100 g, 250 g, 500 g, 750 g, 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 6 kg, 8 kg, 10 kg, 15 kg, 25 kg, 50 kg, 75 kg, 100 kg, 250 kg, 500 kg, 750 kg, 1 tonne (t), 2 t, 4 t, 6 t, 8 t, lot, 15 t, 25 t, 50 t, 75 t, 100 t, 250 t, 500 t, 750 t or 1,000 t per batch. 
     In certain embodiments, a second reaction includes reduction of GO to form graphene (reduced graphite oxide). For example, in certain embodiments, after the first purification, the sulfuric acid concentration of the product is about 0.00005% with a pH of about 5. In certain embodiments, the concentration of GO in the solution is about 1% by mass (1 kg GO in 100 L of aqueous solution). In certain embodiments, the manufacture or method (e.g., second reaction) uses about 20 L of 30% hydrogen peroxide per kg of GO (in 100 liters of solution) and about 4.95 kg of sodium ascorbate (sodium salt of ascorbic acid) per kg GO (in 100 liters of solution). In certain embodiments, the method includes cooking time. In certain embodiments, the method does not include cooking time. In certain embodiments, the method includes given temperatures and process(es). In certain embodiments, the method includes heating the reaction to about 90° C. and adding hydrogen peroxide over the course of an hour. In certain embodiments, the reaction continues to heat at about 90° C. for about 3 more hours. In certain embodiments, sodium ascorbate is added over the course of about 30 minutes. In certain embodiments, the reaction continues to heat at about 90° C. for approximately an additional 1.5 hours. In certain embodiments, the total time at 90° C. is about 6 hours. In certain embodiments, the mixing speed (e.g., during one or more reaction processes) is about 200 rpm. In some embodiments, the apparatus form the reduced form of the carbonaceous composition at a rate of greater than or equal to about 100 grams (g) per year, 200 g per year, 500 g per year, 750 g per year, 1 kilogram (kg) per year, 10 kg per year, 25 kg per year, 50 kg per year, 75 kg per year, 0.1 tpy, 0.2 tpy, 0.3 tpy, 0.4 tpy, 0.5 tpy, 0.6 tpy, 0.7 tpy, 0.8 tpy, 0.9 tpy, 1 tpy, 2 tpy, 3 tpy, 4 tpy, 5 tpy, 10 tpy, 25 tpy, 50 tpy, 75 tpy, 100 tpy, 200 tpy, 500 tpy, 750 tpy, 1,000 tpy (1 ktpy), 2,000 tpy, 3,000 tpy, 4,000 tpy, 5,000 tpy, 6,000 tpy, 7,000 tpy, 8,000 tpy, 9,000 tpy, 10,000 tpy or more. In certain embodiments, the second reaction system is used for batch manufacturing, synthesis or processing (i.e., run as a batch process). In certain embodiments, as described in greater detail elsewhere herein, the methods, devices and systems herein are scalable. In some embodiments, the second reaction system forms the oxidized form of the carbonaceous composition at a rate of greater than or equal to about 1 g, 2 g, 4 g, 6 g, 8 g, 10 g, 25 g, 50 g, 75 g, 100 g, 250 g, 500 g, 750 g, 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 6 kg, 8 kg, 10 kg, 15 kg, 25 kg, 50 kg, 75 kg, 100 kg, 250 kg, 500 kg, 750 kg, 1 tonne (t), 2 t, 4 t, 6 t, 8 t, 10 t, 15 t, 25 t, 50 t, 75 t, 100 t, 250 t, 500 t, 750 t or 1,000 t per batch. 
     In certain embodiments, a second filtration is performed after the second reaction. In certain embodiments, after the second reaction, there are several impurities such as, for example, sodium ascorbate, plus small amounts of sulfuric acid, manganese oxides and manganese salts. In certain embodiments, the purpose or goal of the first filtration (e.g., regardless it how it is done) is to remove the impurities (e.g., those salts) from the solution. In certain embodiments, the water, acid and/or salts is left over from second reaction. For example, in certain embodiments, there are about 4.95 kg of sodium ascorbate per kg of GO left over in solution from the second reaction, plus the remaining small amounts of sulfuric acid, manganese oxides and manganese salts from the initial oxidation (e.g., first reaction). In certain embodiments, the conductivity of the solution after reduction is greater than about 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, or 500 mS/cm. In certain embodiments, the conductivity of the solution after reduction is greater than about 200 mS/cm. In certain embodiments, the rGO solution is washed with de-ionized (DI) water (e.g., with copious amounts of DI water) until the conductivity of the rGO solution reaches about 50 μS/cm or less. In certain embodiments, the rGO solution is washed using a second reaction filter or second reaction filtration process. In certain embodiments, a given amount or degree of concentration is needed for straight rGO (e.g., graphene) use. For example, in certain embodiments, a concentration of about 2% by weight or greater is needed. In some embodiments, the reduced form of the carbonaceous composition is filtered using a second reaction filter at a rate of greater than or equal to about 100 grams (g) per year, 200 g per year, 500 g per year, 750 g per year, 1 kilogram (kg) per year, 10 kg per year, 25 kg per year, 50 kg per year, 75 kg per year, 0.1 tpy, 0.2 tpy, 0.3 tpy, 0.4 tpy, 0.5 tpy, 0.6 tpy, 0.7 tpy, 0.8 tpy, 0.9 tpy, 1 tpy, 2 tpy, 3 tpy, 4 tpy, 5 tpy, 10 tpy, 25 tpy, 50 tpy, 75 tpy, 100 tpy, 200 tpy, 500 tpy, 750 tpy, 1,000 tpy (1 ktpy), 2,000 tpy, 3,000 tpy, 4,000 tpy, 5,000 tpy, 6,000 tpy, 7,000 tpy, 8,000 tpy, 9,000 tpy, 10,000 tpy or more. In certain embodiments, the second reaction filter is used for batch filtration and/or purification (i.e., run as a batch process). In certain embodiments, as described in greater detail elsewhere herein, the methods, devices and systems herein are scalable. In some embodiments, the second reaction filter is used to filter the reduced form of the carbonaceous composition at a rate of greater than or equal to about 1 g, 2 g, 4 g, 6 g, 8 g, 10 g, 25 g, 50 g, 75 g, 100 g, 250 g, 500 g, 750 g, 1 kg, 2 kg, 4 kg, 6 kg, 8 kg, 10 kg, 15 kg, 25 kg, 50 kg, 75 kg, 100 kg, 250 kg, 500 kg, 750 kg, 1 tonne (t), 2 t, 4 t, 6 t, 8 t, 10 t, 15 t, 25 t, 50 t, 75 t, 100 t, 250 t, 500 t, 750 t or 1,000 t per batch. 
     In some embodiments, the second reaction is performed separately from the first reaction. For example, in certain embodiments, the second reaction, in some cases followed by the second filtration, is performed using any graphite oxide feedstock with suitable specifications. 
     In certain embodiments, one or more of the first reaction, first filtration, second reaction and second filtration (or oxidation, purification, reduction and final purification) is performed using the devices and systems herein. In certain embodiments, the devices and systems herein are suitably configured for any given processing step or procedure (e.g., temperature, reaction cooling, rate of addition of reagents, etc., is adjusted). For example, in certain embodiments, the mixing bowl and the tank contents (e.g., mass and/or type of substance(s)) and/or size are adjusted to perform the second reaction (e.g., instead of the first reaction). In certain embodiments, the first reaction is performed in a first system. In certain embodiments, the first filtration is performed in the first system or separately from the first system. In certain embodiments, the second reaction is performed in a second system. In certain embodiments, the second filtration is performed in the second system or separately from the second system. In some embodiments, the first and second systems are coupled (e.g., first system feeds into the second system). In certain embodiments, a plurality of devices and systems herein are coupled (e.g., in a tank house). In some embodiments, the first system is the same as the second system (e.g., the system is configured to be used for the first reaction first, cleaned or emptied, and then used for the second reaction). In certain embodiments, the first and second filtrations are performed in separate systems or in a single filter system. In certain embodiments, the first reaction, first filtration, second reaction, and second filtration are performed sequentially in a single overall process. In certain embodiments, the first reaction products are filtered in a first filtration without proceeding to the second reaction and/or second filtration. In certain embodiments, any combination of the first reaction, first filtration, second reaction, and second filtration processes are automated or semi-automated. Automation enables continuous production of GO/rGO to maximize the production rate while keeping labor costs down.

FIG. 16B  shows a perspective view  1625 , a front view  1626 , a side view  1617 , and a cross-section side view  1615  of an exemplary embodiment of a drum assembly. In certain embodiments, the drum assembly has dimensions including one or more of the following: a drum frame outer diameter  1617  of about 24.00 inches, a drum frame inner diameter  1619  of about 23.00 inches, a first length  1620  of about 28.50 inches, a second length  1621  of about 31.00 inches, a third length  1622  of about 33.50 inches, a fourth length  1616  of about 40.42 inches, and a distance  1618  between a drum stiffener ring and a drum frame of about 8.50 inches. In certain embodiments, the components of the drum assembly are configured to minimize its weight. As an example, in certain embodiments, the distance between drum stiffener rings and/or between a drum stiffener ring and a drum frame is at least 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or more inches, wherein a longer distance allows fewer drum stiffener rings to be used (thereby reducing weight), wherein a shorter distance results in more drum stiffener rings (thereby promoting durability). In one exemplary embodiment, a distance between a drum stiffener ring and a drum frame of about 8.50 inches provides durability while reducing weight by not requiring more stiffener rings to be used. As another example, in certain embodiments, the distance between drum stiffeners is at least 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or more inches. In certain embodiments, the components of the drum assembly comprise materials selected to minimize weight while maintaining durability. For example, in some embodiments, the drum stiffener rings and/or drum comprise a lightweight and durable material (e.g. HDPE). In a preferred embodiment, the drum mesh and/or the drum micron filter is used to facilitating filtration and collection of rGO/graphene obtained from the rGO/graphene second reaction. In certain embodiments, the drum mesh provides structural support for the drum micron filter. Providing structural support for the drum micron filter is important for preventing the micron filter from sagging or ripping due to the force caused by the weight of the carbonaceous material and wash liquid in combination with the centrifugal force of the rotating drum and the high pressure spray of the wash liquid from the spray bar assembly).

     Examples of shapes, sizes and/or dimensions of the drum shaft mount  2804  are shown in  FIG. 38 . In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount sits on a drum shaft support. In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount comprises an aperture  3801  for receiving a conduit, tube, or input ( 2808  in  FIG. 28A ) at an idler side of the drum shaft mount (facing away from the drain pan and/or interior of drum). In certain embodiments, a conduit, tube, or input is a nipple. In certain embodiments, the conduit is configured to receive a flow of material (e.g., a liquid) that travels through the aperture of the drum shaft mount to a spray bar assembly (e.g., into a spray bar  2801  of a spray bar assembly). In certain embodiments, the conduit receives a low pressure flow (e.g., of a carbonaceous composition such as, for example, rGO) into the drum assembly. In certain embodiments, the conduit receives a high pressure flow (e.g., of deionized water or some other wash liquid) into the drum assembly. In some embodiments, the drum shaft mount comprises two apertures, each aperture receiving a conduit receiving a flow of material.

In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount is engaged with one or more spray bars  2801 . In certain embodiments, a conduit  2808  is configured to couple with a quick disconnect fitting  2814 . An advantage of a conduit configured to couple with a quick disconnect fitting is it allows the conduit to be sealed off when no source of material is coupled to the conduit. For example, a reaction filter that is not in operation does not need to be coupled to a source of material. As another example, in certain embodiments, when a batch of a carbonaceous composition has already been introduced into the drum assembly and is undergoing a wash cycle, a conduit configured to receive a carbonaceous composition does not need to be coupled to a source of the carbonaceous composition. In certain embodiments, a single conduit is configured to receive both a carbonaceous composition and a wash liquid (e.g., deionized water). For example, in one embodiment, a single conduit receives a material from a source of a carbonaceous composition that is dispensed inside the drum assembly via a spray bar of a spray bar assembly, and then the conduit is coupled to a source of deionized water that is dispensed inside the drum during the subsequent cleaning cycle(s). In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount is engaged with a spray bar  2801  via an external snap ring  2806 , a spray bar bearing hub  2803 , a ball bearing  2810  (e.g., deep groove ball bearing), and an internal retaining ring  2807  (e.g., as shown in  FIG. 28A ).

In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount  2903  does not comprise one or more apertures for receiving a conduit and/or a source of material (e.g., wash liquid and/or carbonaceous composition). In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount  2903  is located on the opposite side of the drum assembly as the other drum shaft mount  2804  (which does comprise one or more apertures). In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount comprises or is made of one or more materials including, for example, HDPE. In certain embodiments, the drum shaft mount is about 2 inches in thickness.  FIG. 39  shows the idler side of the mount. In certain embodiments, the fluid side of the mount is a mirrored shape and/or size of the idler side.

In certain embodiments, the ice auger feed  4703  dispenses ice into the tank to maintain the reaction temperature at a certain temperature or temperature range. In certain embodiments, the ice auger feed  4703  dispenses ice into the tank to maintain the reaction temperature at about 0° C., 1° C., 2° C., 3° C., 4° C., 6° C., 8° C., 10° C., 15° C., 20° C., 25° C., 30° C., 35° C., 40° C., 45° C., 50° C., 55° C., 60° C., 65° C., 70° C., 75° C., 80° C., 85° C., 90° C., 95° C. or about 100° C. In certain embodiments, the ice auger feed  4703  dispenses ice into the tank to prevent, reduce, or neutralize a temperature increase caused by an exothermic reaction taking place within the tank. In certain embodiments, the ice auger feed  4703  is automated or semi-automated. In some embodiments, a material (e.g., ice, potassium permanganate, sodium ascorbate, hydrogen peroxide, or other reactants or materials) is dispensed using a feed other than an auger feed. As an example, a tube chain conveyor is used in lieu of an auger feed. 
     In certain embodiments, one or more apparatuses or systems for moving and/or dispensing materials into a tank, reactor, vessel, or unit are used such as, for example, a conveyor (e.g. flexible screw conveyor, solid core screw conveyor, an auger conveyor, belt conveyor, etc). In some embodiments, the apparatus or system for moving and/or dispensing materials into a tank comprises a conveyor for transporting said materials from a storage unit (e.g., a deionized water holding tank  4706 , an acid holding tank  4707 , an ice storage unit, a potassium permanganate storage unit, etc) to a first reaction vessel, a first reaction tank (e.g., for quenching a first reaction), a first reaction filter, a second reaction system, or a second reaction filter. In one example, ice is transported from a storage unit to an ice feed (e.g., ice auger feed  4703 ) of a tank of a first reaction system or apparatus. In some embodiments, a container comprises a carbonaceous composition  4704 . In certain embodiments, the reaction vessel comprises an intake for receiving potassium permanganate. In certain embodiments, the reaction vessel comprises an intake for receiving sulfuric acid. In certain embodiments, the reaction vessel comprises an intake for receiving a carbonaceous composition (e.g., graphite feedstock). In certain embodiments, the container comprises a carbonaceous composition  4704  comprising pre-mixed graphite and sulfuric acid. In certain embodiments, graphite and sulfuric acid are pre-mixed prior to being introduced into the tank  4701 . One advantage of pre-mixing the carbonaceous composition (e.g. graphite and sulfuric acid) is to reduce variations in reaction temperature and/or reaction rate. Unmixed or unevenly mixed components can result in variations in reaction temperature and/or reaction rate throughout the composition when the reaction initiates. For example, in certain embodiments, adding the catalyst potassium permanganate to a first reaction vessel comprising unmixed graphite and sulfuric acid results in high reaction temperatures and/or reaction rates in some locations with lower reaction activity in other locations. In certain embodiments, a carbonaceous composition comprising graphite and sulfuric acid is pre-mixed within the reaction vessel, or alternatively, in another container  4704 . In certain embodiments, a catalyst such as, for example, potassium permanganate is added to the pre-mixed graphite and sulfuric acid to catalyze the reaction inside the reaction vessel. In certain embodiments, pre-mixing reduces variations in reaction temperature and/or reaction speed during the reaction (e.g., a first reaction) for a given batch. In certain embodiments, pre-mixing reduces variations in reaction temperature and/or reaction rate between separate batches. In some embodiments, another catalyst is substituted for potassium permanganate (e.g., potassium ferrate K 2 FeO 4 ). In certain embodiments, another catalyst is substituted for potassium permanganate in any of the systems, apparatus, and methods described herein. In certain embodiments, apparatus comprises a catalyst auger feed (e.g., a potassium permanganate auger feed  4705 ). In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  feeds or dispenses potassium permanganate into the reaction vessel (e.g., if the first reaction takes place in the reaction vessel and is quenched in the tank) or into the tank  4701  (e.g., if first reaction and quenching both take place in the tank) before, during, and/or after the first reaction. In certain embodiments, the potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  allows variations in the amount of potassium permanganate being dispensed. In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  is automated or semi-automated. In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  is manually and/or automatically controlled by a central control unit. In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  is configured (e.g. manually or automated) to feed potassium permanganate into the reaction vessel or into the tank  4701  at a rate suitable for maintaining a certain reaction temperature (e.g., temperature inside the reaction vessel for a first reaction) or reaction rate. In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  is configured to feed potassium permanganate at a rate suitable for keeping the reaction temperature below a certain temperature. In certain embodiments, a potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  is configured to increase the rate at which potassium permanganate is dispensed when the reaction temperature is below a temperature threshold. In certain embodiments, a potassium permanganate auger feed  4705  is configured to decrease the rate at which potassium permanganate is dispensed when the reaction temperature is above a temperature threshold. In certain embodiments, temperature threshold is about 0° C., 1° C., 2° C., 3° C., 4° C., 6° C., 8° C., 10° C., 15° C., 20° C., 25° C., 30° C., 35° C., 40° C., 45° C., 50° C., 55° C., 60° C., 65° C., 70° C., 75° C., 80° C., 85° C., 90° C., 95° C. or 100° C.

     In certain embodiments, a central control unit and/or its enclosure is physically attached to one or more components of the systems or apparatuses described herein. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the central control unit and/or its enclosure is remotely located from one or more components of the systems and assemblies described herein. For example, in certain embodiments, the central control unit is geographically separated from a space containing systems for processing carbonaceous compositions (e.g., first reaction system, first reaction filter, second reaction system, second reaction filter, etc). In certain embodiments, the central control unit is electrically or electronically connected to one or more components of a system for processing carbonaceous compositions to control operation (e.g., mechanical operation).

     In certain embodiments, a process for making graphite oxide (GO) and graphene (rGO) includes oxidation, filtration (e.g. purification), reduction and second filtration (e.g. final purification). In certain embodiments, the process of making graphite oxide (GO) includes oxidation and filtration. In certain embodiments, GO generated from a first reaction is processed to an appropriate pH for one or more downstream applications. In certain embodiments, the GO generated from a first reaction is processed to a pH between about 4.5 and 5.0, 5.0 and 5.5, 5.5 and 6.0, 6.0 and 6.5, or 6.5 and 7.0. In certain embodiments, the process of making graphite oxide (GO) and/or graphene (rGO) generates waste materials, such as, for example, sulfuric acid. In certain embodiments, the process for making GO/rGO includes an independent waste processing step, for example, such as adding lime (e.g. CaO) to reaction byproducts of reaction one. In certain embodiments, the waste processing step neutralizes sulfuric acid waste with lime to generate gypsum. In certain embodiments, the gypsum is processed, for example, by being filter pressed. In certain embodiments, the gypsum is then dried. In certain embodiments, a waste processing apparatus comprising a tank and a mixer is configured to generate gypsum by mixing lime with a waste liquid from reaction one, wherein the waste liquid comprises sulfuric acid. Processed gypsum is useful for downstream applications, such as, for example, as a fertilizer. The high calcium and sulfur content of gypsum and its high solubility makes it an ideal fertilizer. Gypsum also does not acidify the soil and may act to reduce aluminum toxicity in the soil. Therefore, in certain embodiments, a process of making GO and/or rGO comprises a waste processing step that converts sulfuric acid waste into gypsum. 
     In certain embodiments, during oxidation to single-layer GO, graphite (about 1 kg) is mixed with 98% sulfuric acid (about 32 L) and chilled to about −10° C. In certain embodiments, the GO reactor cooling coils is chilled to −2° C. In certain embodiments, the graphite/sulfuric acid mixture is then poured carefully into the reactor. In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate (about 4.8 kg) powder is added to the reactor slowly over the course of about 1.5 hours, carefully keeping the reaction temperature below about 15° C. In certain embodiments, after addition of potassium permanganate is complete, the reactor cooling coil temperature is raised to about 12° C., and the reaction heats up to about 30° C. over about 1.5 hours. In certain embodiments, the reactor cooling coils are then cooled to about −2° C., and the reaction temperature stays at about 30° C. for approximately an additional 30 minutes. In certain embodiments, crushed ice (about 32 kg) is then added over the course of about 1 hour. In certain embodiments, the reaction temperature climbs to about 50° C. over this time. After ice addition, in certain embodiments, the reaction is allowed to stir for about 1 hour. In certain embodiments, the reaction is finally quenched with crushed ice (about 72 kg). In certain embodiments, the ice melts during this quench, and then 30% hydrogen peroxide (about 2 L) is added to stop the reaction. 
     In certain embodiments, during oxidation to multi-layer GO, graphite (about 1 kg) is mixed with 98% sulfuric acid (about 32 L) and chilled to about −10° C. In certain embodiments, the GO reactor cooling coils are chilled to about −2° C. In certain embodiments, the graphite/sulfuric acid mixture are then poured carefully into the reactor. In certain embodiments, potassium permanganate (about 2 kg) powder is added to the reactor slowly over the course of about 45 minutes, carefully keeping the reaction temperature below about 15° C. In certain embodiments, the reaction is then allowed to stir for about 30 minutes at a reaction temperature of about 15° C. In certain embodiments, the reaction is finally quenched with crushed ice (about 125 kg). In certain embodiments, the ice melts during this quench, and then 30% hydrogen peroxide (about 1 L) is added to stop the reaction. 
     In certain embodiments, purification is performed using a tangential flow filtration process. In certain embodiments, the filter type is a modified polyether sulfone hollow filter membrane with about 0.02 micron pore size. In certain embodiments, the purification is complete when the pH of the product reaches about 5. In certain embodiments, the purified GO is then concentrated to a solution of about 1% by weight. 
     In certain embodiments, the reduction is performed by heating the purified 1% by weight GO (about 1 kg) solution to about 90° C. and adding 30% H 2 O 2  (about 1 L) for about 1 hour. After about 1 hour, 30% H 2 O 2  (about 1 L) is added to the reaction and heated at about 90° C. for approximately an additional 3 hours. Then, sodium ascorbate (about 4.95 kg) is added to the reaction over the course of about 30 minutes. In certain embodiments, the reaction continues to heat under stirring for approximately an additional 1.5 hours to form reduced graphite oxide (rGO). 
     In certain embodiments, the final purification includes purifying rGO via vacuum filtration through, for example, a 2 micron 316 stainless steel mesh filter (e.g., via a second reaction filter). In certain embodiments, water is flushed through the rGO to remove all salts. In certain embodiments, purification is complete when the rGO solution has a conductivity of about 50 μS/cm or less. In certain embodiments, the filtration is accomplished using the second reaction filter as described herein (e.g. as shown in  FIGS. 41-43 ). As an example, in certain embodiments, the slurry of rGO second reaction products is pumped into the interior space of the drum assembly (e.g., drum) at low pressure by the spray bar (e.g., “Lo-Pressure Fluid In” in  FIG. 41A ) as the drum is rotating (e.g. 600 rpm). In certain embodiments, the centrifugal force from the rotation of the drum forces the slurry against the interior surface of the drum mesh and/or drum micron filter. Water and dissolved solutes are able to pass through the mesh/filter pores, while the rGO product is retained. In certain embodiments, a liquid (e.g. deionized water) is sprayed at high pressure (e.g., “Hi-Pressure Fluid In” in  FIG. 41A ) from openings in the spray bar (e.g. spray tip  2809 ) against the rGO product stuck on the interior surface of the mesh/filter. In certain embodiments, the high pressure liquid forces the rGO product off the surface of the mesh/filter and into the bottom of the drum. In certain embodiments, the drum is rotating during this washing process. In certain embodiments, the drum rotates continuously at the same speed, change speeds, stop and go, reverse rotation, or any combination thereof to facilitate washing and/or drying of the rGO. In certain embodiments, the bottom of the drum (e.g. bottom ½, bottom ⅓, bottom ¼, or bottom ⅕, etc.) is positioned within the drainpan weldment (e.g. below the top edge of the drainpan weldment). In some embodiments, a portion of the bottom of the drum is submerged under a liquid being used to wash the rGO second reaction product. This allows rGO that is forced off the surface of the mesh/filter to be further washed by submersion in a volume of liquid in the drainpan weldment. In certain embodiments, once the rGO product has been sufficiently washed, the liquid is drained from the drainpan, and the spray bar ceases ejecting high pressure liquid. In certain embodiments, the drum rotates at a high rpm to help dry the rGO product. In certain embodiments, a vacuum is applied to enhance the filtration and/or draining process at any point during this procedure. In some embodiments, the rGO product undergoes multiple rounds of washing. In certain embodiments, each wash or round of washing ends when at least a majority of the liquid in the drainpan is drained. In certain embodiments, the drum provides at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, or 30 washes for a batch of a carbonaceous composition (e.g., rGO).
