1. A chemical reactor, comprising:
two or more gas reactor elements, wherein each of the gas reactor element comprises:
i. a first reaction chamber comprising an upstream end and a downstream end, wherein the first reaction chamber is defined by a first reactor wall defining the first reaction chamber and the first reaction chamber has an opening located at the downstream end of the first reaction chamber;
ii. a feed assembly unit operably connected with the first reaction chamber, wherein the feed assembly unit, comprises: 1) a mixing chamber defined by one or more feed assembly walls, wherein the mixing chamber is operably connected to the upstream end of the first reaction chamber and at least one feed assembly wall is operably connected with the first reactor wall; and 2) two or more feed inlet flow spaces, each in fluid communication with the mixing chamber and configured to inject a feed stream into the mixing chamber;
a second reaction chamber coupled with each of the two or more gas reactor elements and configured to independently receive two or more product streams from the two or more gas reactor elements, wherein the second reaction chamber comprises a downstream end and an upstream end and the second reaction chamber is defined by a second reactor wall extending from the upstream end of the second reaction chamber to the downstream end of the second reaction chamber; and wherein
the opening of each of the first reaction chamber forms a second reaction chamber inlet located at the upstream end of the second reaction chamber so that the first reaction chamber is in fluid communication with the second reaction chamber.
