Non-Catalytic Gas Phase Oxidation of Hydrocarbons

The predicted role of gas chemistry in meeting the global needs for fuels and petrochemicals makes it necessary to increase efficiency chemical processes reduce their energy consumption. An important solving these problems can be played by non-catalytic autothermal oxidation that provide high with minimal demands on composition processed gases preliminary preparation. paper presents latest results development two promising directions natural processing. One, so called matrix conversion, belongs group based conversion into syngas demonstrates possibility a significant specific capacity due transition oxidative conversion. other is direct hydrocarbon products – partial oxycracking subsequent catalytic carbonylation resulting methanol ethylene. In this case, additional advantages are achieved processing complex mixtures without separation.
