Abstract
Systems and a method for forming carbon allotropes are described. An exemplary reactor system for the production of carbon allotropes includes a hybrid reactor configured to form carbon allotropes from a reactant gas mixture in a Bosch reaction. The hybrid reactor includes at least two distinct zones that perform different functions including reaction, attrition, catalyst separation, or gas separation.
