Generally, alkaline earth metal oxides absorb CO2 more easily as their atomic number increases, and depending on the conditions, they become carbonates. Even under the reaction conditions of methane and molecular oxygen, the catalyst may absorb Co2 produced during the reaction process and some of it may become carbonate, but this does not cause any significant trouble.

加させ。There are various theories regarding the catalytic reaction mechanism in the oxidative dehydrogen trimerization reaction of methane, and no definitive explanation has been given yet. The catalytic action of substances is due to the fact that oxygen adsorbed on these oxides forms superoxide ions (

活性点が相乗的に増加したものと考えられる。There is a theory that it makes it easier to generate methyl radicals. The catalyst of the present invention, which is a composite oxide of an alkaline earth metal oxide and a rare earth oxide, exhibits high activity and high selectivity from low temperature ranges because superoxide ions are generated by the composite of the oxides. It becomes easier to generate at lower temperatures, and
It is thought that the number of active sites increased synergistically.
