Process for Destroying Carbonaceous Materials and Composition and System Thereof

1 . A process for substantially removing carbonaceous material from a composition comprising:

providing the composition having carbonaceous material;

reacting the carbonaceous material with a sulfur compound; and

forming products having at least one of a sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, and sulfur dioxide and a carbon-containing compound.

2 . The process of claim 1 wherein the carbonaceous material comprises carbon dioxide.

3 . The process of claim 1 wherein the sulfur compound comprises hydrogen sulfide.

4 . The process of claim 1 wherein the products comprise at least one of carbon, carbon-sulfur polymer, sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, sulfur dioxide, water, sulfite and sulfate.

5 . The process of claim 1 wherein the products comprise at least one of carbon and carbon-sulfur polymer.

6 . The process of claim 1 further comprising providing at least one of an oxide and hydroxide.

7 . The process of claim 1 wherein the reacting comprises feeding the composition into a reactor having a pressure from approximately atmospheric pressure to above atmospheric pressure.

8 . The process of claim 1 wherein the reacting comprises providing a reactor having an oxygen-free atmosphere.

9 . The process of claim 1 wherein the reacting comprises:

injecting the carbonaceous material and the sulfur compound as contents into a reactor in an oxygen-free atmosphere; and

at least one of exciting and catalyzing the contents to accelerate a rate of reaction.

10 . The process of claim 1 wherein the reacting comprises providing a proportion of molar volumes of carbon dioxide to molar volume of hydrogen sulfide in a range from about 2:1 to 3:2.

11 . The process of claim 1 wherein the reacting comprises providing excess carbon dioxide.

12 . The process of claim 1 further comprising separating the products from the composition.

13 . The process of claim 1 further comprising providing a reactor having a temperature of about room temperature to 1,000° C.

14 . The process of claim 1 wherein the carbonaceous material comprises carbon dioxide, the sulfur compound comprises hydrogen sulfide, and the products comprise at least one of elemental carbon, water, carbon-sulfur polymer, sulfurous acid, sulfuric acid, and sulfur dioxide.

15 . The process of claim 1 wherein the carbonaceous material is completely removed from the composition.

16 . The process of claim 1 wherein at least 95% of the carbonaceous material is removed from the composition.

17 . A composition produced from the process of claim 1 .

18 . A composition substantially free of carbonaceous material, the carbonaceous material removed by a process comprising:

providing a chemical composition, having carbonaceous material and a sulfur compound with a ratio of two molar volumes of carbonaceous material to one molar volume of sulfur compound; and

causing the carbonaceous material to contact the sulfur compound.

19 . The composition of claim 18 wherein the carbonaceous material comprises carbon dioxide.

20 . The composition of claim 18 wherein the sulfur compound comprises hydrogen sulfide.

21 . The composition of claim 18 wherein the process further comprises producing products of at least one of carbon, water, carbon-sulfur polymer, sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, and sulfur dioxide.

22 . A system for substantially removing carbonaceous material from a composition comprising a reactor for receiving the composition, having carbonaceous material and a sulfur compound with a ratio of molar volumes of carbonaceous material to molar volume of sulfur compound of about 2:1 to 3:2, and producing products substantially free of the carbonaceous material.

23 . The system of claim 22 wherein the carbonaceous material comprises carbon dioxide.

24 . The system of claim 22 wherein the sulfur compound comprises hydrogen sulfide.

25 . The system of claim 22 wherein the products comprise at least one of carbon, water, carbon-sulfur polymer, sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, and sulfur dioxide.
