Investigation of Molten Cobalt Halide/Sodium Metavanadate Mixtures as Redox Catalysts for the Oxidative Coupling of Methane

Molten mixtures of sodium metavanadate and cobalt halide have been tested as catalysts for the activation of methane at 750°C in redox mode. It is found that these melts can convert methane selectively to C2 + products in the absence of molecular oxygen. The initial activity and selectivity of the m...
