| Researchers at Purdue University have developed a series of active and stable catalysts for direct methane transformation, which achieved high conversion and selectivity to hydrocarbons while producing low amounts of coke. Through tests at 650⁰C under nonoxidative conditions, a selectivity of >90% towards C2+ species with reduced coking was obtained. Furthermore, these catalysts proved to be very stable as they did not show significant deactivation throughout a 24-hour run. These catalysts open an avenue for developing thermally stable atomically dispersed supported metal catalysts (ADSMCs) and provides a route for converting methane into more valuable products for direct methane conversion. Advantages: -High C2+ Selectivity -Low Coking -Good Stability Potential Applications: -Catalyst for Direct Methane Conversion -Thermally Stable ADSMC |
