| abstract |
The present invention relates to a process for the oxidative conversion of at least one gaseous alkane, preferably of a C1-C4 alkane, more preferably of methane, in at least one fluidized bed membrane reactor, the at least one first inlet conduit, at least one second inlet conduit, which at least is present in sections within the reactor in the form of a membrane having at least one active membrane surface, and at least one catalyst bed comprises. According to the invention, the method comprises the steps of introducing at least one first stream containing the at least one gaseous alkane into the at least one catalyst bed in the reactor via the at least one first inlet line, and introducing at least one second stream containing oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas into the reactor the at least one second inlet conduit, wherein the second stream is introduced via the at least one active membrane surface into the at least one catalyst bed of the reactor. The application also relates to a reactor for carrying out this process. |
