Abstract |
Solid carbon deposition is a persistent challenge in dry reforming of methane (DRM), affecting both classical and plasma-based processes. In this work, we use a microwave plasma in reverse vortex flow configuration to overcome this issue in CO<sub>2</sub>/CH<sub>4</sub>plasmas. Indeed, this configuration efficiently mitigates carbon deposition, enabling operation even with pure CH<sub>4</sub>feed gas, in contrast to other configurations. At the same time, high reactor performance is achieved, with CO<sub>2</sub>and CH<sub>4</sub>conversions reaching 33% and 44% respectively, at an energy cost of 14 kJ L<sup>−1</sup>for a CO<sub>2</sub> : CH<sub>4</sub>ratio of 1 : 1. Laser scattering and optical emission imaging demonstrate that the shorter residence time in reverse vortex flow lowers the gas temperature in the discharge, facilitating a shift from full to partial CH<sub>4</sub>pyrolysis. This underscores the pivotal role of flow configuration in directing process selectivity, a crucial factor in complex chemistries like CO<sub>2</sub>/CH<sub>4</sub>mixtures and very important for industrial applications. |

Abstract |
Climate change, environmental pollution control, and resource utilization efficiency, as well as food security, sustainable agriculture, and water supply are among the main challenges facing society today. Expertise across different academic fields, technologies,anddisciplinesisneededtogeneratenewideastomeetthesechallenges. This “white paper” aims to provide a written summary by describing the main aspects and possibilities of the technology. It shows that plasma science and technology can make significant contributions to address the mentioned issues. The paper also addresses to people in the scientific community (inside and outside plasma science) to give inspiration for further work in these fields. |

This paper is a result of the PlasmaShape project, supported by funding from the European Union Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) under grant agreement no. 316216. During this project, young scientists and renowned and outstanding scientists collaborated in the development of a political-scientific consensus paper as well as six scientific, strategic white papers. In an unique format core themes such as energy, optics and glass, medicine and hygiene, aerospace and automotive, plastics and textiles, environment and agriculture and their future development were discussed regarding scientific relevance and economic impact. We would like to thank our colleagues from 18 nations from all over the world (Australia, Belgium, Czech Republic, PR China, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland, USA) who have participated both workshops of Future in Plasma Science I and II in Greifswald in 2015/2016. The valuable contribution of all participants during the workshops, the intensive cooperation between the project partners, and the comprehensive input of all working groups of Future in Plasma Science was the base for the present paper. Kindly acknowledged is the support of graphical work by C. Desjardins and K. Drescher. |
