| Summary: | Partial oxidation of methane (POM) significantly offers benefits to the industrial production of syngas in comparison with other conventional processes in terms of hydrogen (H2)/carbon monoxide (CO) ratio and degree of catalyst deactivation induced by carbonaceous species. Thus, the increasing concern on commercialisation of POM technology has driven the catalyst system to enter another stage of developing a novel catalyst, namely perovskite. POM is comprehensively reviewed and compared with various perovskite catalysts. Apart from studying process chemistry to understand POM reaction, the role of metal types for perovskite structure on catalytic performance and coke selectivity are also scrutinised and summarised. Additionally, the comprehension of POM pathways and the corresponding pictorial depiction are discussed and provided in this paper.
