Abstract

The catalytic partial oxidation of methane (CPOM) to methanol has been regarded as a promising approach for methane utilization, despite that the conversion remains a formidable challenge in the perspective of catalysts. A novel catalyst system of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) that supported Fe2O3 with existing I2, consisting of non-noble metal and working in weak acid at an ambient temperature, was investigated for CPOM. MWCNTs supported the Fe2O3 catalyst, which was prepared by the impregnation method and characterized via HRTEM, XRD, XPS, FT-IR, and BET techniques. The characterization results reveal that, as a non-noble metal catalyst, the Fe2O3/MWCNTs catalyst had a good catalytic performance and stability in the CPOM. With the variation of reaction pressure and the dosage of Fe2O3/MWCNTs, the catalyst system obtained the highest methane conversion rate of 7.41% and methanol selectivity of 86.3%, which is analogous to that of the equivalently strong acid catalyst system. The I2-Fe2O3/MWCNTs catalyst system has great potential in the application of CPOM under mild, environmentally benign conditions, such as non-noble metal requirement, ambient temperature, and weak acid. The reaction mechanism was discussed.
