A surprising discovery reveals that carbon nanotubes made from CO2 spontaneously create intense, stable plasma in ordinary ...

An efficient way to ionize the gas for MHD acceleration is through electron beam ionization where high-energy electrons are injected directly into the flow. Plasma Fueled Engines (PFE) offer a means ...

Supports recent results from other projects using PyroGenesis plasma torches showing lower energy usage, reduced CAPEX, and ...

In casting ladle heating, PyroGenesis plasma torches reduced energy consumption by 80 per cent compared to natural gas ...

Tokamaks confine plasma – a hot, ionized gas – using magnetic fields arranged in a doughnut-like configuration called a torus. As the particles in the plasma become energized and heat up ...

The study, appearing in Nuclear Fusion, evaluated actuator configurations, in particular those used to control neutral gas flowing in and out of the tokamak. A power-producing fusion plasma must ...
