Euro Petrochemistry 2019: Conversion of CH4 into Value-added Chemicals by Plasma-Catalysis-Yanhui Yi-Dalian University of Technology
Author(s): Yanhui Yi
Methane (CH4), the main component of natural gas and shale gas, has a large reservation and wide distribution in the world, and thus it has been considered as an alternative energy source for oil. However, due to high stability (439 kJ/mol C-H bond energy), negligible electron affinity and low polarizability of CH4 molecule, catalytic conversion of CH4 into value-added chemicals is considered the “holy grail” of catalytic chemistry, and thus effective utilization of CH4 has attracted much attention.
