A process and catalyst for the partial oxidation of low molecular weight paraffinic hydrocarbons, such as methane, ethane, propane, naphtha, and natural gas condensates to form alkenes, such as ethylene, propylene and other valuable by-products. The process involves contacting the low molecular weight paraffinic hydrocarbon with the catalyst in the presence of oxygen or air and optionally steam. The catalyst has a perovskite-type crystalline structure, and lends itself to fixed and fluidized bed reactor configurations. The conversion process is less costly than conventional processes due to low pressure operation, the use of air and steam as a source of oxygen, and lower operating temperatures resulting in less coking, downtime, and reduced cost for materials of construction. Catalyst activity is extended and reactor downtime for catalyst regeneration is minimized by addition of chlorides and/or amines.
一种用于部分氧化低分子量烷烃烃类碳氢化合物(如甲烷、乙烷、丙烷、石脑油和天然气凝析液)以形成烯烃(如乙烯、丙烯等)和其他有价值的副产品的过程和催化剂。该过程涉及将低分子量烷烃烃类碳氢化合物与催化剂在氧气或空气以及可选的蒸汽存在下接触。催化剂具有钙钛矿型的晶体结构,并适用于固定床和流化床反应器结构。由于低压操作、使用空气和蒸汽作为氧源以及较低的操作温度导致较少的结焦、停机时间和降低建筑材料成本,转化过程比传统工艺成本更低。通过添加氯化物和/或胺,延长了催化剂的活性并将用于催化剂再生的反应器停机时间最小化。
