Oxidative coupling of methane for the production of ethylene was studied over Li-Ni/MgO catalyst in a fixed bed reactor. The influences of important reaction parameters such as temperature (T), methane/oxygen ratio (CH4/O2) in feed and space velocity of reactants (V/mcat) were studied over the conversion of methane, yields of ethylene and ethane and selectivity of ethylene formation. The reaction conditions were varied as 650 < T < 850oC, 0.83 x 10-6 < V/mcat < 2.92 x 10-6 m3/g s and 1 < CH4/O2 ratio < 8. |
