1. A system for catalytic carbon conversion comprising:
a. a dynamic catalytic conversion reactor comprising:
an outer wall having an inner portion filled with a plurality of tubes arranged in parallel to the longitudinal axis of the outer wall;
a catalyst within each of the plurality of tubes; and
one or more separating sheets within the outer wall,
wherein the one or more separating sheets divide the inner portion of the outer wall into a plurality of zones, and
wherein each of the plurality of zones comprises a portion of the plurality of tubes;
b. one or more heat exchangers coupled to the dynamic catalytic conversion reactor, and configured to receive a reactor effluent produced by the dynamic catalytic conversion reactor;
c. a separator coupled to the one or more heat exchangers;
d. one or more compressors coupled to the separator;
e. a carbon source gas configured for supply to the dynamic catalytic conversion reactor; and
f. a hydrogen source coupled to a renewable energy supply configured for supply to the dynamic catalytic conversion reactor.
