Catalytic-oxidation of Methane To C-2 Hydrocarbons

Primary tabs

Yang, H. Thyrion, FC.

The oxidative coupling of methane has been tested over a series of silicalite-supported catalysts. Both methane and natural gas were used as reactants and the results showed that the selectivity and the yield of ethylene were always higher with natural gas as feed. The influence of the concentration of manganese and sodium on the catalyst activity and selectivity has been studied. Experiments conducted with methane or ethane as reactant, in the presence or in the absence of the gas phase oxygen, showed that adsorbed oxygen species plays an important role in the methane activation and that carbon oxides derive mainly from the methyl radicals issued from methane. Kinetic results are also reported.
