| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, new catalytic system for methane conversion using plasma jet have been developed. DFT calculations revealed that the gold clusters are active for the methyl radical coupling reaction. The metal oxide supported gold cluster catalysts were synthesized using ligand-protected gold clusters. So, plasma jet catalytic reactor was newly designed and developed. Methane conversion to ethane proceeded using this plasma jet catalytic reactor over supported gold catalysts with high ethane selectivity. In this project, plasma jet catalytic reactor system is proven to be effective for methane conversion at low temperature.
