Technological prospects of noncatalytic partial oxidation of light alkanes

This review analyzes alternative noncatalytic routes for the conversion of various natural hydrocarbon gases to syngas, oxygenates, olefins, and other chemicals. The possibility of producing a wide assortment of products directly from light gaseous hydrocarbons, including methane, was demonstrated....

Summary:This review analyzes alternative noncatalytic routes for the conversion of various natural hydrocarbon gases to syngas, oxygenates, olefins, and other chemicals. The possibility of producing a wide assortment of products directly from light gaseous hydrocarbons, including methane, was demonstrated. The advantages and practical implementations of such technologies are discussed.
