1. A remote controller for a reaction system, comprising:
- an electromagnetic signal generator configured to produce an electromagnetic signal configured to be received by a remotely activatable control element of a reaction device located in an environment and to activate the remotely activatable control element mechanically, thermally or chemically to produce a desired rate of a chemical reaction in the reaction device; and
an electromagnetic signal device configured to transmit the electromagnetic signal to the remotely activatable control element.
