Direct Methane to Methanol: Foundations and Prospects of the Process offers a state-of-the-art account of one of the most interesting and potentially commercial technologies for direct conversion of natural gas into valuable chemicals. The book thoroughly explains the complex and unusual chemistry of the process, as well as possible applications for direct methane to methanol (DMTM). It covers topics involving thermokinetics, pressure, direct oxidation of heavier alkanes, and more, and provides detailed appendices with experimental data and product yields. This book provides all those who work in the field of gas processing and gas chemistry with the theory and experimental data to develop and apply new processes based on direct oxidation of natural gas. All those who deal with oil and natural gas production and processing will learn about this promising technology for the conversion of gas into more valuable chemicals.
Introduction Historical review of the DMTM Oxidation products Main reaction parameters Dependence on methane-oxygen ratio Kinetic peculiarities of the process The role of heterogeneous processes The role of pressure Thermokinetical phenomena at DMTM The promoting of the process Direct oxidation of heavier alkanes Possible technological applications of DMTM Conclusions References Appendix 1.
