Summary:A method of terminating a reaction generating energy and 4He atoms from the reaction of three-dimensional nanostructured carbon material with deuterium gas. The method includes containing three-dimensional nanostructured carbon material in a sealable vessel, introducing deuterium gas to the vessel to react the three-dimensional nanostructured carbon material with the deuterium gas. The vessel is sealed to confine the reaction; and the reaction of the three-dimensional nanostructured carbon material with the deuterium gas is terminated by at least partially destroying the three-dimensional periodicity of the three-dimensional nanostructured carbon material in the vessel. An apparatus for generating energy and 4He atoms using a solid vessel having an interior cavity with three-dimensional nanostructured carbon material in the interior cavity in an amount sufficient to generate energy when deuterium gas is introduced to the vessel and reacts with the three-dimensional nanostructured carbon.
