The synergism of plasma and catalyst on dehydrogenative coupling of methane was investigated. Experimental results have revealed that the synergism does exist, when positive corona within a suitable power range and an intermediate pulse repetition frequency (PRF) for a loaded 7-Mn2O3/7-A12O3 catalyst were chosen. In respect to the mechanism approach, a tentative model for general pathway was proposed to explain the role of plasma and catalyst partaking in the process of methane decomposition and C2 products formation.展开更多

Results indicate that the addition of hydrogen is beneficial. to the methane coupling so as to increase the conversion rate of methane and the yield of C2 hydrocarbon with a gradual increase in the addition of hydrogen in a certain range of proportionality. This conclusion explores a new route of hydrogenated methane coupling.展开更多

The experiment shows that plasma power load, i.e. the ratio of methane flow to plasma power, is the most important factor effecting methane dehydrocoupling. The products of the reaction are mainly acetylene, ethylene, ethane and unreacted methane etc. If oxygen with a suitable molar ratio is introduced into plasma region at a reasonable position, the selectivity of C2 hydrocarbons can be increased greatly.展开更多

The system consists of two parallel electrodes: the upper electrode is connected to 13.56 MHz RF power and the lower one is connected to the ground. Thin films were deposited on glass slides with different sizes and on silicon wafers. The influence of the plasma species on film characteristics was studied by changing the plasma parameters. The changes of plasma species during the deposition were investigated by optical emission spectroscopy (OES). The structural and optical properties were analyzed via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-visible spectroscopy, and the thicknesses of the samples were measured by a profilometer. The sp3/sp2 ratio and the existing H atoms play a significant role in the determination of the chemical properties of thin films in the plasma. The film quality and deposition rate were both increased by raising the power and the flow rate.展开更多

Nickel catalyst is active for this reaction. However, its activity still needs to be improved. Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma, initiated at ambient condition and operated at -150 ℃, has been employed in this work for decomposition of nickel precursor to prepare Ni/MgAl2O4. The plasma decomposition results in high dispersion, unique structure, enhanced reducibility of Ni particles and promoted catalyst-support interaction. An improved activity of CO2 methanation with a higher yield of methane has been achieved over the plasma decomposed catalyst, compared to the catalyst prepared thermally. For example, the methane yield of the plasma prepared catalyst is 71.8% at 300 ℃ but it is 62.9% over the thermal prepared catalyst. The catalyst characterization confirmed that CO2 methanation over the DBD plasma prepared catalyst follows pathway of CO methanation.展开更多
