Catalytic membrane reactors for synthesis gas production from natural gas via partial oxidation. (2004)
Thesis
OLSEN, S.K. 2004. Catalytic membrane reactors for synthesis gas production from natural gas via partial oxidation. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis.

Natural gas obtained during the extraction of liquid hydrocarbons is often undesired due to the lack of infrastructure to transport the natural gas to an onshore location. As a result the natural gas is often flared causing economic waste and environ... Read More about Catalytic membrane reactors for synthesis gas production from natural gas via partial oxidation..
