Alkanes are the major constituents of natural gas and crude oil, the feedstocks for the
chemical industry. The efficient and selective activation of C–H bonds can convert abundant …

The dry (CO2) reforming of methane is a great promising technology, particularly because of
its dual advantages of natural gas valorization and mitigating global warming via carbon …

Catalytic partial oxidation of methane has been reviewed with an emphasis on the reaction
mechanisms over transition metal catalysts. The thermodynamics and aspects related to …

Catalytically converting CH 4 to chemicals and fuels is of paramount importance but remains
a major challenge to simultaneously obtain high activity and selectivity. Here, we report Cu …

A review of the main developments in the partial oxidation of methane to synthesis gas since
the first paper in 1929 to the present day is given. The reaction is discussed from the view of …

The preparation of synthesis gas from natural gas, which is the most important step in the
gas-to-liquid transformation, has attracted increasing attention in the last decade. Steam …

Increasingly stringent legislation controls emissions from internal combustion engines to the
point where alternative power sources for vehicles are necessary. The hydrogen fuel cell is …

High-surface-area molybdenum and tungsten carbide materials, synthesised by the
temperature programming reduction of the relevant metal oxide with methane/hydrogen, are …

A brief review on the recent developments of alternative routes for synthesis gas production,
namely catalytic methane partial oxidation and methane reforming with carbon dioxide, is …

Ordered mesoporous NiO–MgO–Al2O3 composite oxides with various Ni and Mg content
