CATALYTIC PARTIAL OXIDATION OF HYDROCARBONS

摘要

A process for the production of a reaction product including a carbon containing compound. The process includes providing a film of a fuel source including at least one organic compound on a wall of a reactor, contacting the fuel source with a source of oxygen, forming a vaporized mixture of fuel and oxygen, and contacting the vaporized mixture of fuel and oxygen with a catalyst under conditions effective to produce a reaction product including a carbon containing compound. Preferred products include alpha-olefins and synthesis gas. A preferred catalyst if a supported metal catalyst, preferably including rhodium, platinum, and mixtures thereof.
