PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stably produce an aromatic hydrocarbon for a long time by a catalytic reaction of a lower hydrocarbon with a catalyst while keeping a high aromatic hydrocarbon yield.SOLUTION: The aromatic hydrocarbon and hydrogen are produced by using a reaction step of obtaining the aromatic hydrocarbon and hydrogen by catalytic reaction of the lower hydrocarbon with the catalyst, and a regeneration step of regenerating the catalytic activity by bringing the catalyst used in the reaction step into contact with hydrogen, and repeating the reaction step and the regeneration step. In the reaction step, carbon monoxide is added to the lower hydrocarbon and reaction temperature is set to >800°C. |
