Book Description
The utilization of Canada's abundant natural gas is of great importance for self-sufficiency in the future. Among the processes under investigation, the direct conversion of methane into higher hydrocarbons without going through syngas is particularly attractive, although there are difficulties mainly due to the high stability of the methane molecule and the thermodynamic disadvantages. This report analyzes published reports on the catalytic oxidative condensation of methane, including the results of oxidative coupling with oxygen and other oxidants supplying oxygen, such as nitrous oxide, and those of other oxidative condensation reactions. Excluded from the review are those papers dealing with the partial oxidation of methane which produce mainly oxygenated compounds. The report covers a total of 110 papers and patents including most of those published in 1988. Surveyed but not cited in the report are papers presented at conferences without a full report in the preprint or proceedings. Recommendations are included.

Book Description
This proceedings volume comprises the invited plenary lectures, contributed and poster papers presented at a symposium organised to mark the successful inauguration of the world's first commercial plant for production of gasoline from natural gas, based on the Mobil methanol-to-gasoline process. The objectives of the Symposium were to present both fundamental research and engineering aspects of the development and commercialization of gas-to-gasoline processes. These include steam reforming, methanol synthesis and methanol-to-gasoline. Possible alternative processes e.g. MOGD, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis of hydrocarbons, and the direct conversion of methane to higher hydrocarbons were also considered.The papers in this volume provide a valuable and extremely wide-ranging overview of current research into the various options for natural gas conversion, giving a detailed description of the gas-to-gasoline process and plant. Together, they represent a unique combination of fundamental surface chemistry catalyst characterization, reaction chemistry and engineering scale-up and commercialization.

Book Description
This book discusses effective and alternative uses for natural gas (NG) and highlights the utilization of NG in the field of methane activation and chemical production. It details the techniques used during the reforming process of petrochemical and bio-derived fuels and it presents cutting-edge research that describes the utilization of NG that enables it to be more cost-effective and eliminate the expensive greenhouse gas emitting process of hydrogen production. The book addresses three major topics: NG use in upstream heavy oil and bitumen upgrading, NG and its use in downstream oil refining through co-aromatization of various feeds in the petrochemical industry, and NG use in the upgrading of bio-derived fuels and discusses alternative uses of NG. In-depth chapters demonstrate uses for NG beyond heating homes, through catalysis and in-situ hydrogen donation, and its potential applications for the petrochemical and biofuel industries.
