Abstract
Recent literature data on partial oxidation of light alkanes into syngas and oxidative coupling of methane into C2 hydrocarbons are reviewed. The problems of these processes (high cost of pure oxygen; safety; activity, selectivity and stability of catalysts; temperature regime; coke formation and other by-products; insufficient level of methane transformation into ethane and ethylene) are considered. Possible solutions of these problems and prospects of practical use of light alkanes processing are discussed.
