Abstract
Mixtures of methane containing some nitrogen and oxygen were passed over copper and silver catalysts. The effects of the variables, composition of mixture pressure, and temperature were determined. From 3 to 7% of oxygen was used in various experiments at pressures from 140 to 220 atm. at a temperature of 475 °C. The effect on yields of additions of carbon dioxide to the mixture was determined.Keywords
