Methane conversion with carbon dioxide in plasma-catalytic system
The hybrid plasma-catalytic system (HPCS) was used for the conversion of methane with CO2 to higher hydrocarbons and alcohols. The investigation was carried out at the pressure of 1.2 bar. A dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactor was powered at the frequency of about 6 kHz. Molar ratio [CO2]:[CH4] in the inlet gas mixtures (CH4 + CO2 + Ar) was 1. The investigation was carried out for specific energy 1000-3500 kJ/mol CH4. Three kinds of packing were tested: Fe/Al2O3, NaY and Na-ZSM-5. Ethane was the main component among the organic products. In the HPCS with Na-ZSM-5, in the first hour the formation of liquid products was observed.
