Abstract:In this work, we demonstrate plasma-catalytic synthesis of hydrogen and
acrylonitrile (AN) from CH and N. The
process involves two steps: 1) plasma synthesis of
CH and HCN in a nominally 1:1
stoichiometric ratio with high yield up to 90% and high methane
conversion > 90%; and 2) downstream thermocatalytic
reaction of these intermediates to make AN. The effect of process
parameters on product distributions and specific energy requirements are
reported. If the catalytic conversion of
CH and HCN in the downstr… Show more
