converting the carbon-based feedstock into volatiles and activated carbon;

co-mingling the separated volatiles and activated carbon, the co-mingling cleaning the volatiles using the activated carbon and forming natural gas, wherein the activated carbon is not charred through the process;

separating the natural gas from the activated carbon; and

recycling a portion of the natural gas into the flow of superheated non-oxygenated gas, the recycled portion at least partially converting the carbon-based feedstock into the volatiles and the activated carbon.
