Study of methane carbonate conversion process in fixed catalyst layer in different membrane reactors

The work studied the characteristics of membrane catalysts in reaction methane carbonate conversion as a model reaction. This process produces synthesis gas (a 1:1 mixture Н 2 and СО), which can be used to make many products, including synthetic fuels (in FischerTropsch process). One serious problems is presence side reactions that prevent production with required ratio products (H :CO=1:1).Membrane were investigated catalytic reactors: extractor, contactor, distributor. Carbonate was compared their material performance ground state conventional reactor fixed catalyst bed on contactor As main parameters conversion, change -the concentration components degree initial reagents resulting components, depending contact time - considered. aims study methane's layer different reactors.
