Article: Conversion of methane to liquid products, hydrogen, and ammonia with environmentally friendly condition-based microgap discharge.(TECHNICAL PAPER)(Report)

ABSTRACT

The conversion of methane to liquid products, hydrogen ([H.sub.2]), and ammonia ([NH.sub.3]) was investigated experimentally using microgap discharge plasma at an environmentally friendly condition. The experimental results indicated that [H.sub.2] and [NH.sub.3] were detected as the main gas products. The highest yield and production rate of [H.sub.2] was 14.4% (v/v) and 2974.6 [micro]mol/min, respectively, whereas the highest yield and production rate of [NH.sub.3] was 8000 ppm (v/v) and 165.1 [micro]mol/min, respectively. Particularly, the liquid products were collected on the plate and consisted of pyrrole, 2-methyl-1, 4-pentadiene, ...
