Abstract
An apparatus and methods are provided for producing ceramic products in a reactor so as to minimize deposits therein. The reactor has a chamber defined therein which is divided into a combustion zone, into which a combustible mixture is injected, and a reaction zone in which the ceramic product is produced from at least one reactant injected into the chamber at the boundary between the zones. At least a portion of the wall defining the reaction zone is surrounded by at least one passageway through which coolant fluid is passed during ceramic production. Either carbide product or nitride product can be produced in the reaction zone according to the invention.
