Abstract: | The carbon dioxide reforming of methane to synthesis gas under DC-pulsed plasma was investigated. The effects of specific
input energy and feed ratio on the product distribution and also feed conversion was studied. At the input energy of about
11 eV/molecule per methane and/or carbon dioxide the feed conversion of 38% for CH4 and 28% for CO2 and product selectivity of 74% has been attained for H2 and CO at feed flow rate of 90 ml/min. The energy consumption in this work displays potential to further study and optimization
of the process. The importance of the electron impact reactions in the process was discussed. The results show that by prudent
tuning of system variables, the process be able to run in the way of synthesis gas, instead of hydrocarbon production. |
