the experimental studies of methane conversion to higher hydrocarbons and methanol using a dielectric barrier discharge (dbd) reactor are presented in this article. the process is carried out at ambient atmospheric pressure and temperature. the dbd reactor is stimulated by an alternative voltage of 50 hz and amplitude of max.23kv. the examination of the effect of voltage and flow rates on metha...

the direct conversion of methane to c2 hydrocarbons, in a quartz tube reactor enforced by a dc corona discharge, was investigated at atmospheric pressure. the process was carried out in the presence of metal oxide catalysts of mn/w/sio2, mn/w/sio2 (tetraethyl orthosilicate, teos), and mn/w/cnt (supported on carbon nanotubes). the total yield to c2 hydrocarbons in the presence of metal oxide cat...

abstract in this work, the dry reforming of methane was studied using a corona and glow discharge plasma microreactors. a chemical kinetic model was developed to understand the reaction better. the modelization allowed prediction of the reactants conversion according to the energy transfer to the gas (p×τ). the β value is trait of the energy cost, whatever this value was leeser indicated better...

In this work, the dry reforming of methane was studied using a corona and gliding discharge plasma microreactors. A chemical kinetic model was developed to describe the experimental behavior observed. The kinetic model is proposed based on the assumption that the reactant molecules CH4 or CO2 are attacked by active species produced b...

noncatalytic and nonoxidative conversion of methane in a dielectric barrier discharge (dbd) reactor is examined at different temperatures, gas residence times and input powers. in addition, the ratio of methane to helium as a diluant, is changed in the range of 0.6 to 1.8. results show significant synergetic effects of plasma, temperature and helium on the methane conversion and c2+ selectiviti...

since nox family, one of the most important causes of air pollution, is the primary source of acid rains, ozone layer depletion, and breathing disorders, mitigation of these pollutants is now a global concern. in the off-gases of internal combustion engines running with oxygen excess, non-thermal plasmas (ntps) have an oxidative potential, which results in an effective conversion of no to no2. ...
