Despite the large number of disparate approaches for the direct selective partial oxidation of
methane, none of them has translated into an industrial process. The oxidation of methane …

We review the structural chemistry and reactivity of copper-exchanged molecular sieves with
chabazite (CHA) topology, as an industrially applied catalyst in ammonia mediated …

Currently, methane is transformed into methanol through the two-step syngas process,
which requires high temperatures and centralized production. While the slightly exothermic …

Metal-exchanged zeolites are a class of heterogeneous catalysts that perform important
functions ranging from selective hydrocarbon oxidation to remediation of NO x pollutants …

In this short review, we highlight the recent advances in methane conversion processes at
high and low temperatures. Methane conversion processes are of great importance in …

Direct methane functionalization and, in particular, the selective partial oxidation to
methanol, remains an eminent challenge and a field of competitive research. The …

Motivated by the increasing availability of cheap natural gas resources, considerable
experimental and computational research efforts have focused on identifying selective …

The stoichiometric conversion of methane to methanol by Cu-exchanged zeolites can be
brought to highest yields by the presence of extraframework Al and high CH4 chemical …

The conversion of methane into an easily transportable liquid fuel or chemicals has become
a highly sought-after goal spurred by the increasing availability of cheap and abundant …

The one-step valorization of natural gas remains a challenge. Methane conversion to
methanol via chemical looping over copper-containing zeolites is a promising route, and …
