The kinetics of methane pyrolysis were studied in a tubular flow reactor in the temperature range 1200 to 1500ยฐC at atmospheric pressure. To avoid excessive carbon formation the reaction time was short and the methane feed was diluted with hydrogen. Ethene, ethyne, benzene and hydrogen were the main

โฆ Synopsis
Propane pyrolysis is studied in the presence and the absence of dihydrogen between 743 and 803 K, in the propane pressure range 10-100 Torr, and at 20-254 Torr dihydrogen pressure. In unpacked Pyrex reactors, dihydrogen accelerates propane dehydrogenation and demethanation. The reaction is modeled by a conventional homogeneous free-radical chain mechanism.
Propane pyrolysis is strongly inhibited by the walls of reactors packed with stainless steel, zirconium, or palladium foils. Adding dihydrogen to propane still increases the rates of product formation. The reaction in these packed reactors is modeled by the kinetic scheme proposed for the homogeneous reaction and by the heterogeneous process
โข of chain termination and initiation. In the absence of dihydrogen, step (ฯชw 2 ) is negligible and precise values of uptake coefficients of hydrogen atoms are obtained at 773 K: 0.31 for stainless steel 0.10 for zirconium 0.05 for palladium
