Abstract
Methane, ethane, and their mixtures with oxygen have been passed through the silent electric discharge at various operating conditions Beside.carbon oxides and water, formaldehyde and methane, and acetaldehyde and ethanol from ethane were the other major products. The effect of temperature, pressure, discharge voltage, contact time, and oxygen concentration have been examined. The rate of oxygen consumption is almost independent of oxygen concentration and depends mainly on the discharge voltage. The selectivities of methanol formation from methane and ethanol/formation from ethane were 20 and 15%, respectively.
