The patented microwave plasma reactor system generates these products from methane efficiently at very high rates of conversion and selectivity. Transform Materials’ clean plasma technology can convert methane into hydrogen and acetylene without the CO 2 emissions that result from traditional processes for generating hydrogen and acetylene.

Potential high-value products from isolated lignin include low-cost carbon fiber, engineering plastics and thermoplastic elastomers, polymeric foams and membranes, and a variety of fuels and chemicals—all currently sourced from petroleum. Each product stream, however, has its own distinct challenges. Ragauskas et al.
