Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING CARBON NANOFIBERS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/070094
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing carbon nanofibers comprises a reaction device (12) for supplying a carbon material (11) and microparticles (50) and allowing carbon nanofibers (52) to grow on the surfaces of the microparticles (50), a heating device (20) for heating the reaction device (12), a recovery line (23) for recovering the microparticles on which the carbon nanofibers have grown, and a carbon nanofiber separation device (24) for separating the carbon nanofibers (52) from the microparticles recovered.
