An original method of decomposition of heavy hydrocarbons into light fractions in the plasma of a microarc discharge initiated between electrodes submerged in a liquid is proposed. The characteristics of the microarc discharges between electrodes submerged in different liquids were investigated. A chromatographic analysis of the gases formed in this case has been performed.
