Examples in Context

  1. Other components are the homologous alkanes, ethane, propane, and higher hydrocarbons.
  2. The surface carbon is the intermediate substance which can form methane and higher hydrocarbons;
  3. The residual higher hydrocarbons ( ml / g ) in various rank of coal samples have been determined.
  4. The main dissociation routes of reactants, important intermediate reaction steps and the possible reaction pathways to form the ultimate products ( including alcohols, acids, higher hydrocarbons and syngas ) have been investigated.
  5. Here, we designed a new process in which higher hydrocarbons can be synthesized from non-syngas and the process is effective to convert methane and other low-carbon hydrocarbons into higher hydrocarbons. Meanwhile, the energy consumption and CO2 emissions are substantially reduced.
