In this work we demonstrate catalytic partial oxidation of methane into syngas at pressures up to 0.8 MPa, power densities up to 15 MW/L and selectivity greater than 85%. The product composition profiles indicate high initial selectivity to CO and low initial selectivity to H 2 , suggesting direct partial Oxidation of methane primarily into CO and water, while most hydrogen is produced in the consecutive steam reforming of methane.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
