Abstract
The effect of the ratio of the reagents on a stabilized cool flame of rich propane-oxygen mixtures is investigated. It was found that with an increase in the initial concentration of propane in the mixture, its consumption, as well as the concentration of propylene, has a maximum a ratio of C3H8 : O2 = 1 : 1. In this case, the selectivity of propylene formation reaches a maximum a ratio of C3H8 : O2 = 4 : 1. It is shown that an increase in the initial propane concentration in the mixture increases the yield of methane, but reduces the yield of propylene, ethylene, hydrogen, CO, CO2, methanol, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde. At a ratio of C3H8 : O2 = 6 : 1, ethane was also found in the reaction products. The possibility of ethanol formation in the reactions of ethoxyl and hydroxyethyl radicals with acetaldehyde has been analyzed using the CBS-QB3 quantum-chemical method.
