Themite and OH- and C

Would gas OH and Carbon react, I'm thinking of themite with CuSO4+Al+C+S+NaOH, with the reaction making Al2(SO4)3+Cu2S+Cu+ Na++OH-+CO2+H2. The thing would be used with a MHD genny, so need some gas with Na+ .with Al2(SO4)3 at -3440 empthy.

Ideas?

What, exactly, are you planning to do?
Is MHD magnetohydrodynamic?
Is genny generator?

There are probably better ways to make a plasma.

Cheddite Cheese yep those things, what would be abetter way to make a plasma?, looking for 5-10min burn time
