Reactor for non-oxidative direct conversion of methane and method of manufacturing ethylene and aromatic compound using same

A reactor for non-oxidative direct conversion of methane, the reactor comprising:

• an introduction unit for introducing a methane-containing feed;
• a reaction unit for reacting the methane-containing feed introduced through the introduction unit to produce a product containing ethylene and an aromatic compound;
• and
• a discharge unit for discharging the product containing the ethylene and the aromatic compound produced in the reaction unit,
• wherein the reaction unit includes a first reaction region unit, for reacting the methane-containing feed introduced through the introduction unit to produce acetylene, and a second reaction region unit, for hydrogenating the acetylene produced in the first reaction region unit to produce the ethylene and the aromatic compound, and the second reaction region unit is provided with a hydrogen supply tube which is coaxially disposed in the reactor and which is hollow so that hydrogen is supplied through the hydrogen supply tube in the direction of the discharge unit towards the introduction unit,
• wherein the reactor for non-oxidative direct conversion of methane includes a second reaction region catalyst in a reactor inner circumferential surface or in the hydrogen supply tube of the second reaction region unit.
