| This presentation will include a comparison of microwave, varaiable frequency microwave, and ac discharge plasma catalytic reactions. The advantages and disadvantages of each type of system will be discussed. Some of the catalytic reactions to be mentioned include methane activation, production of methanol from methane, activation of carbon dioxide, and the splitting of water into hydrogen. There will be a discussion of the variables that are most important in these reactions such as power, frequency, flow rate, type of reactor, catalyst type and form, and time of reaction. In certain cases, comparison will be made to microwave heating catalysis experiments. |
