Abstract
Analysis of experimental data and results of kinetic simulation throw light on the reasons for which the pressure exerts influence on the partial oxidation of methane to methanol. Among the most important factors are a crucial transition of the reaction to the steady-state chain-branched regime, an increase in the role of nonlinear gas-phase reactions, and a change in the relative contribution of heterogeneous transformations to the overall process.
