MICROWAVE INDUCED CATALYTIC CONVERSION OF METHANE TO ETHYLENE AND HYDROGEN

摘要

"MICROWAVE INDUCED CATALYTIC CONVERSION OF METHANE TO ETHYLENE AND HYDROGEN" A process for selectively converting methane to ethylene and hydrogen is provided. Methane is brought into contact with a metal powder catalyst and subjected to a pulse train of microwave radiation for a sufficient period of time to effect conversion thereof. The reaction products are recovered.
