Catalytic dehydrogenation coupling of methane (DCM) represents an effective way to convert natural gas to more useful C products (CH, CH). In this work, BaCeTbCoO (BCTCo) perovskite hollow fiber membranes were fabricated by the combined phase inversion and sintering method. SrCeYbO (SCYb) perovskite oxide was loaded as a catalyst onto the inner hollow fiber membrane surface, which promoted the CH conversion and the C hydrocarbon selectivity during the DCM reaction. The introduction of steam into the methane feed gas mixture elevated the C selectivity and yield due to the alleviation of coke deposition. Switching N to air as the sweep gas further increased the C selectivity and yield. However, the conversion of methane was limited by both the low permeability of the membrane and the insufficient catalytic activity of the catalyst, leading to low C yield.
甲烷催化脱氢偶联反应(DCM)是将天然气转化为更有用的碳产物(CH、CH)的有效途径。在本工作中,采用相转化和烧结相结合的方法制备了BaCeTbCoO(BCTCo)钙钛矿中空纤维膜。将SrCeYbO(SCYb)钙钛矿氧化物作为催化剂负载在内中空纤维膜表面,在DCM反应过程中促进了CH转化和C烃选择性。将蒸汽引入甲烷原料气混合物中,由于减轻了积炭,提高了C选择性和产率。将吹扫气从N切换为空气进一步提高了C选择性和产率。然而,甲烷的转化率受到膜的低渗透率和催化剂催化活性不足的限制,导致C产率较低。
