  • Embodiment of the present invention is used, it will first be explained in more detail below.
  • the oxidative coupling of methane is described in the literature, for example in JD Idol et al., “Natural Gas”, in: JA Kent (ed.), “Handbook of Industrial Chemistry and Biotechnology”, Volume 2, 12th edition, Springer , New York 2012.

  • oxidative coupling not provided by the oxidative coupling, is possible and advantageous if these gas mixtures contain one or more olefins in an appreciable amount, for example more than 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 mol percent and up to 80 mol percent ( as individual or sum values) and carbon monoxide in the same quantity ranges. If the present invention is described below with specific reference to the oxidative coupling of methane and ethylene which is formed in the oxidative coupling, this is not intended to imply any restriction.

  • a water molecule is also formed during the reaction.
  • the ethane is then oxydehydrogenated to ethylene, a target compound in the oxidative coupling of methane. Another water molecule is formed here.
  • the oxygen used is typically completely converted in the reactions mentioned.
  • the reaction conditions for the oxidative coupling of methane typically include a temperature of 500 to 900 ° C., a pressure of 5 to 10 bar and high space velocities. More recent developments go in particular towards the use of lower temperatures.
  • the reaction can be carried out homogeneously or heterogeneously in a fixed bed or in a fluidized bed.
  • higher hydrocarbons with up to six or eight carbon atoms can also be formed, but the focus is on ethane or ethylene and possibly also propane or propylene.
  • Oxygen concentration in the mixture depends.
  • the formation of by-products is linked to the reaction temperature, since the total oxidation of methane, ethane and ethylene preferably takes place at high temperatures.
  • Carbon dioxide can partly be counteracted by the choice of optimized catalysts and adapted reaction conditions, a gas mixture formed during the oxidative coupling of methane contains mainly unconverted methane as well as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and water in addition to the target compounds such as ethylene and possibly propylene. Any non-catalytic cleavage reactions that may take place may also contain considerable amounts of hydrogen.
  • a gas mixture is also referred to as a “product mixture” of the oxidative coupling of methane, although it predominantly does not contain the desired products but also the unreacted starting material methane and the by-products just explained.

Further paraffins can also be fed into the non-catalytic zone, so that the residual heat from the oxidative coupling of methane can be used in a particularly advantageous manner.
  • downstream non-catalytic zone is also referred to as "post bed cracking".

Is it mentioned below that a used according to the invention Starting gas mixture is formed or provided "using” or “using” an oxidative coupling of methane, this information should not be understood in such a way that only the oxidative coupling itself has to be used in the provision.

If it is mentioned below that ethane or another paraffin apart from methane is "returned” to the process, this can in particular mean a return to the post-catalytic vapor splitting. In contrast, methane that is "fed back into the process" is used in particular for the oxidative coupling of methane.
