Thermal coupling of methane in a tubular flow reactor: parametric study

Methane to acetylene conversion by employing cost-effective low-temperature arc

“…Moreover, the additive can participate in the reaction to enhance the selectivity of the target product. In the process of methane conversion to acetylene, hydrogen is the most effective additive for increasing the selectivity of acetylene [27]. Fig.…”

“…Higher H 2 /CH 4 ratios results in increase of C 2 hydrocarbon (C 2 H 2 and C 2 H 4 ) yields. In addition to that, higher H 2 /CH 4 ratios suppress coke formation [38][39][40][41][42]. The effect of H 2 on CH 4 conversion is mainly triggered by the hydrogen abstraction step.…”

“…The effect of H 2 on CH 4 conversion is mainly triggered by the hydrogen abstraction step. And hydrogen radical participates successive hydrogenation reaction [39,42]:…”

“…(28)) with a heat of reaction of 377 kJ/mol [27]. The heat of reaction can be converted to 4.03 kWh/kg-C 2 H 2 .…”

High temperature thermochemical processing of biomass and methane for high conversion and selectivity to H2-enriched syngas

“…4 that methane yield does not seem to be correlated with biomass type, only temperature, indicating that discussion of the two conversion pathways may be decoupled for the purposes of this study. The reaction processes in biomass gasification are complex and numerous and can generally be categorized according to the following groupings: biomass [53][54][55][56]. Soot is also formed when polyaromatic species released during biomass pyrolysis combine and nucleate solid particulates [54,[57][58][59].…”
