Abstract
In this chapter, the basics of the technology for the conversion of methane to aromatics and hydrogen by Mo/HZSM-5 catalysts are discussed. After introducing the main thermodynamic considerations of nonoxidative methane conversion, we highlight the physicochemical properties of the catalysts used in this process, the reaction mechanism, and the deactivation by coke deposition that limits commercialization of this reaction. Recent developments in improving catalyst stability (hierarchization, periodic reaction-regeneration operation, and novel reactor designs) are briefly reviewed.
