Abstract

Homogeneous partial methane oxidation in quartz and stainless steel flow reactors was studied systematically in the pressure range 15–80 atm. Product yields were determined as functions of basic process parameters (pressure, temperature, residence time of the mixture in the reactor, initial oxygen concentration). The process was found to depend strongly on the material of the reactor surface.
