Abstract
Platinum-Cobalt-loaded NaY zeolite (Pt-Co/NaY) membranes were synthesized for continuous, single-step nonoxidative conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons (C2+) and hydrogen. During isothermal operation at 300 °C, CH4 flowed on the feed side of the membrane whilst H 2 flowed through the sweep side of the membrane. The C2+ products formed continuously on the H2 sweep side. The results indicate that the Pt-Co/NaY catalytic membrane can overcome the two-step limitation for nonoxidative CH4 conversion.
