ABSTRACT:
A process is described wherein solid carbon particles C(S) of various forms are suspended in a carbon dioxide gas (CO.sub.2) and exposed to a flux of neutrons from a fusion neutron source for the purpose of converting the very high kinetic energy of the neutrons to chemically stored energy using the endothermic reaction C(S)+CO.sub.2 .fwdarw.2CO. In contrast to previous art involving the direct radiolytic dissociation of the CO.sub.2 molecule, the means described in this invention are aimed at thermally driving the reaction C(S)+CO.sub.2 .fwdarw.2CO such that a very much higher yield of CO is obtained.
