TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the use of catalysts for methane combustion in high temperature natural gas-turbines can be found, where a large amount of work has been undertaken to develop catalysts both for controlling methane emission as well as for generating power.

TL;DR: The catalytic oxy reforming of methane, which is an energy-efficient process that can produce syngas at extremely high space-time yields, is discussed in this Review.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared rare earth metal oxides for their acid and base strength distribution and their catalytic activity/selectivity in oxidative coupling of methane to C2-hydrocarbons at 973-1123 K (space velocity = 108,000 cm 3 · g −1 h −1 and CH 4 /O 2 = 4 and 8).

TL;DR: Methane can be highly activated, yielding high rates of conversion to higher hydrocarbons and aromatics by its reaction over H-galloaluminosilicate ZSM-5 type (MFI) zeolite in the presence of alkenes or higher alkanes.

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of protons and halide anions in the aqueous reaction medium on H 2 O 2 formation in the direct oxidation of H 2 to H 2O 2 (at 27 °C) over different supported Pd catalysts (i.e., Pd supported on carbon, alumina, gallia, silica, zirconia, or ceria) in their reduced form, and also on the activity of the catalysts for the destruction of H2 O 2 by its decomposition and/or hydrogenation reactions
