Estimating the term…
Systems and methods conducive to the formation of one or more alkene hydrocarbons using a methane source and an oxidant in an oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) reaction are provided. One or more vessels each containing one or more catalyst beds containing one or more catalysts each having similar or differing chemical composition or physical form may be used. The one or more catalyst beds may be operated under a variety of conditions. At least a portion of the catalyst beds may be operated under substantially adiabatic conditions. At least a portion of the catalyst beds may be operated under substantially isothermal conditions.
A method of controlling the production of alkene hydrocarbons generated by the exothermic reaction of methane from a methane source and oxygen from an oxidant source over an oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) catalyst bed to provide an OCM gas comprising the alkene hydrocarbons, the method comprising:
