Abstract

A method has been proposed for decomposition of heavy hydrocarbons into light fractions in arc plasma with rotating electrodes immersed in the hydrocarbon feedstock. Chromatographic analysis of the product gases has been performed, and the carbonaceous deposits formed on the electrodes during the experiment have been studied using electron microscopy and infrared spectroscopy.
