Some Aspects of Temperature Control in scale-up of Oxidative Coupling of Methane

In this research some aspect of temperature control in pilot reactor was investigated. The split flow mode procedure was proposed، in which the temperature of feed gas، containing methane and oxygen، were reached to favorite reaction temperature before entrance to reactor. For the reason of highly exothermic of partial oxidative reaction، the important problem will be removal of heat flux from reactor body. In this research reactor was exposure in heat transfer with environment through radiation and convection. The passing of gas through the packed bed was used for reaching feed gas temperature to the optimum range. In this way OCM reactor was performed in isothermal operation and has high potential for heat removal. The reactor designed for diameter of 1 in and length of 125 cm.
