Abstract
In this short review, we highlight the recent advances in methane conversion processes at high and low temperatures. Methane conversion processes are of great importance in achieving a crude-oil independent supply of energy, fuels and chemicals for the future. Direct conversion of methane into chemicals and fuels has been often considered as the “holy grail” of current catalysis research due to the unreactive nature of methane, which makes targeted chemical transformations to fuels and chemicals very challenging. We discuss the progress in developing heterogeneous catalytic and electrocatalytic systems to overcome this challenge. We conclude by providing a perspective on the future of this area of research.
