Cheaper, scalable, more energy efficient thermochemical reactor electrically generates industrial-scale heat

"magnetic induction heating/ heat-transfer... high frequency currents alternating very quickly inductively heating poorly conducting ceramic 3D lattice in reactor's core... lattice voids artificially lowering electrical conductivity even further, filled with catalysts, enabling much smaller reactor... heating large surface area right next to catalyst... >85% efficient... increasing size and/ or heat makes more efficient... converting carbon to valuable chemicals, cement manufacture"
