Abstract

A number of strategies for tuning performance of heterogeneously catalyzed reactions are being explored. They comprise: (1) optimizing reactor operation based on the knowledge of reaction mechanism and kinetics, (2) application of well-defined nano-sized metal nanoparticles for preparation of supported catalysts, and (3) combining complementary reactions into one process via a proper reactor design. The present mini review demonstrates their potential for conversion of C3–C4 alkanes to the corresponding alkenes, oxidative functionalization of methane, Fischer–Tropsch reaction and HCl oxidation to Cl2 (Deacon process).
