The formation of methanol directly from methane and steam was observed over Cu ion-exchanged mordenite. Furthermore, the continuous production of methanol was achieved by co-feeding methane and steam over Cumordenite. The methanol production rate was comparable to that reported in the stepwise process in which activation, methane reaction, and extraction of methanol were carried out separately.

For $CO_2-free$ hydrogen production and better utilization of the produced carbon, catalytic decomposition of methane over rubber-grade carbon blacks manufactured from coal tar was carried out. The catalytic activities of several domestic carbon blacks were compared. A pelletized carbon black exhibited considerably lower activity and activation energy than the fluffy( loose) carbon black of the same grade. This difference is considered due to the binder that was added during pelletization. For pelletized carbon blacks, a tendency was observed that the activity per unit mass of catalyst increased with the specific surface area of the carbon black. Another tendency was also observed that the activation energy increased with the primary particle size or decrease of the specific surface area.

The effect of gas activation on the formation of SiC layer on Si substrate using methane as a carbon source was investigated. Tungsten filaments, heated above 200$0^{\circ}C$, were used to activate the methane-hydrogen mixed gas. The dissociation of methane gas by the heated filament was enough to form a SiC layer successfully, which was very difficult without any activation. The SiC layer formed on the Si substrate was crystalline and nearly epitaxial as measured by X-ray diffraction. The SiC layer formed on the Si substrate was crystalline and nearly epitaxial as measured by X-ray diffraction. The stoichiometry was also close to 1:1. However, the characteristic of the SiC layer was dependent on the heat-treatment condition. The general behavior of the layer growth with the variables was discussed.

There appeared enhancements of the conversion of methane by adding a small amount of CO in the aromatization reaction of methane using the Mo-zeolite catalyst. In case of adding $CO_{2}$, $CO_{2}$ changed to CO first, and then the conversion reaction occurred. It was observed by using isotopes as reactants that CO is related to the aromatization reaction of methane.

저온 플라즈마를 이용한 메탄 직접 전환반응은 진공에서 메탄만을 원료로 마이크로웨이브나 라디오 주파수(R.F)등의 에너지를 가하여 플라즈마 상태로 반응시켜 에틸렌, 에탄, 아세틸렌 등의 C2 화합물을 생성하는 방법이다. 이러한 직접적인 메탄 전환의 장점은 산소를 가하지 않으므로 산소에 의한 부생성물이 없는 점과 저온 플라즈마를 이용하므로 저에너지 공정이라는 것을 들 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 마이크로웨이브와 라디오 주파수(R.F)를 이용하여 저온 플라즈마 반응으로 메탄 전환반응을 수행하였고 일반적인 플라즈마 반응에 사용되는 관형반응기 외에도 독자적인 시리즈 반응기를 설계하여 성능실험을 수행하였다. 또한 플라즈마와 촉매를 이용한 반응실험을 수행 촉매의 영향을 확인하였다. 저온 플라즈마를 이용한 메탄 전환 반응의 특성을 분석한 자료는 공정의 실용화를 위한 반응기 설계 및 반응속도를 분석하기 위한 기초자료로 기대된다.

Mn/In$_2O_3$ systems with a variety of Mn mol${\%}$ were prepared to investigate the effect of Mn-addition on the catalytic activity of Mn/In$_2O_3$ in the oxidative coupling of methane. The oxidative coupling of methane was examined on pure In$_2O_3$ and Mn/In$_2O_3$ catalysts by cofeeding gaseous methane and oxygen under atmospheric pressure between 650 and 830 $^{\circ}C$. Although pure In$_2O_3$ showed no C$_2$ selectivity, both the C$_2$ yield and the C$_2$ selectivity were increased by Mn-doping. The 5.1 mol${\%}$ Mn-doped In$_2O_3$ catalyst showed the best C$_2$ yield of 2.6${\%}$ with a selectivity of 19.1${\%}$. The electrical conductivities of pure and Mn-doped In$_2O_3$ systems were measured in the temperature range of 25 to 100 $^{\circ}C$ at PO$_2$'S of 1 ${\times}$ 10$^{-7}$ to 1 ${\times}$ 10 $^{-1}$ atm. The electrical conductivities were decreased with increasing Mn mol${\%}$ and PO$_2$, indicating the specimens to be n-type semiconductors. Electrons serve as the carriers and manganese can act as an electron acceptor in the specimens. Manganese ions doped in In$_2O_3$ inhibit the ionization of neutral interstitial indium or the transfer of lattice indium to interstitial sites and increase the formation of oxygen vacancy, giving rise to the increase of the concentration of active oxygen ion on the surface. It is suggested that the active oxygen species adsorbed on oxygen vacancies are responsible for the activation of methane.

This study was focused on the catalytic activity for the combustion of low-concentration methane using various commerical catalysts (six transition metal catalysts in Russia and one rare earth metal (Honeycomb) catalyst in Korea). Catalytic activity was strongly influenced by the type and loading content of metal supported in catalyst. Catalytic performance showed the highest activity in Honeycomb catalyst including rare earth metal, which was the most expensive catalyst, while the next was the catalyst supported Cu with high content (AOK-78-52) and also that supported Cr and Co (AOK-78-56). However, both AOK-78-52 and AOK-78-56 catalysts that were very cheap had lower activation energy than Honeycomb catalyst. In the economical field, both AOK-78-52 and AOK-78-56 catalysts with transition metals showed a good alternative catalyst on the combustion of methane.
