Abstract

The reaction mechanism of direct catalytic oxidation of methane to syngas over a platinum catalyst under high temperature, short contact time conditions was studied with a detailed reactor and reaction model. Based on a detailed analysis of this mechanism, new integrated reactor concepts were deduced. Two concepts were studied in detail: a fixed bed reactor with integrated recuperative heat exchange, and a catalytic membrane reactor with distributed reactant feed. The reactor concepts are presented, and advantages and problems of the concepts are discussed.
