Introduction

Detected reserve of the natural gas deposit of the Republic of Uzbekistan is almost 2 trillion m3, and the oil is 350 million tons. Currently 31-32% of oil deposits have been mined in the Republic. Only 0.5-2.0% of methane has been processed chemically worldwide. This puts the task to increase products based on methane from the natural gas and to broaden researches focused on researched synthesizing important materials for the national economy. Saving materials and heat-energetic resources is one of the important tasks of modern technique. Development of the energy saving technology is one of the main directions of chemical technology and scientific technical progress. In many chemical processes in industry energy loss is main part of the total extravagance. Moreover development of technology using heat resources (oil, coal, natural gas) are raw materials and energy sources in many chemical syntheses simultaneously is important

[1-3].

The only correct way of perspective processing the natural gas is oxycondensation reaction, and the process takes place in one step and at the normal atmospheric pressure.

More than 30 year passed since the oxycondensation reaction of methane was discovered, but stable catalyst with high activity and yield was not developed so far, thus the reaction has not been applied in industry. For this reason development of catalyst and optimization ofworking parameters of apparatus for the preparation planned products with maximal yield is important [4-10].

of net volume during the reaction, N2 - concentration of nitrogen input of the reactor; N'2 - concentration of nitrogen from the reactor.

The rate of the reaction according to individual components (reactants and products) in the mixture based on the their concentration in mixture was calculated suing the formula below.

W = v (C >0 - C )/v

v - catalyst volume; W.-rate of the depletion of reactant-i or formation of product-. (mol-s-1-cm-3); V - sum rate of stream of reaction mixture (normal conditions cm3/sec); Ci 0 and Ci - initial and final concentrations of components respectively.

Oxycondensation reaction of methane was studied in stream differential reactor in laboratory conditions. The reactor is made of quarts with the length 650 mm and inner diameter 8 mm. catalyst dimension is 0.25-0.5 mm. Methane: oxygen in 2^7-1volumetric ratio was sent to the reactor at the rate 1 ^ 15 l/hour. The temperature was changed from 700 to 850 °C. oxycondensation reaction of methane was carried out in stream differential reactor at the normal atmospheric pressure. Gas products of the reaction was analyzed using GC.

Catalyst with the composition Metan-ni oksikondensasiyalash reaksiyasi uchun (Mn2O3)x • (Na2MoO4) y. (ZrO2)z for the oxycon-densation reaction of methane was prepared using the sol-gel method. Phase content was carried out on DRON-4.0 (CuK a - beam) diffractometer, and particle size was determined on the scanning electron microscope ((JSM-6380 LV) and the transmission electron microscope (EMV-100BR).

Effect of internal diffusion retardation in the oxycondensation of methane was analyzed using the method proposed by Wagner:

where F_ - Tile modulus; D „ - effective diffusion

The temperature difference in the interior and exterior of the catalyst granule effect on the rate of reaction was defined using the following equation;

where ah - reaction enthalpy, J/mol; \at - heat conductivity of the catalyst particle, Vt(mk); T - temperature, K; Ea - activation energy, J/mol; R - Universal gas constant, J/(mol-K). In order to evaluate effect of external diffusion retardation on the surface of the catalyst the criterion was applied, it resembles the rate of reaction on the surface of catalyst relation to diffusion rate of substances from gas or liquid phase. If the rate of reactants in the stream differs less than 5% from the concentration on the surface, the rate of reaction does not differ more than 5% from the kinetic rate, thus the non-equality fulfills;

As shown in the table, decrease in the partial pressure of oxygen also decreases the total conversion of methane, and yield of formation and selectivity as well.

Results of kinetic studies show that increase of contact time and elevated temperature the process parameters improve.

Increase in the ration of CH4 : O2 decreases the conversion of methane and oxygen. Input of ethane, ethylene, CO and CO2 also decreases the formation of products. nisbatining ortishi metan va kislorod konversiyasining pasayishiga olib keladi. Increase in the contact time increases conversion of oxygen and methane, and decreases the selectivity relative to ethylene. Elevation of temperature increases conversion of methane, and decreases the selectivity relative to ethane and ethylene. Increase in the methane: oxygen ratio increases selectivity to ethane and selectivity to ethylene stays unchanged.

Increase in the temperature increases the conversion of oxygen. At 700 °C conversion of oxygen reaches 95% for 0.9 sec, at 1000 °C contact time is 0.009 sec.

Increase in the conversion of oxygen decreases the selectivity of the process. Increase in temperature up to 700-800 °C, the selectivity of the process decreases, and later the selectivity increases at 850-9650 °C.

Oxycondensation reaction of methane takes place in homogeneous-heterogeneous mechanism. Activation of methane takes place on the surface of hard oxide catalyst. On the active site of the catalyst one hydrogen atom evolves from methane and methyl radical forms.

Ethylene formation from oxycondensation of methane is one step process and takes place at normal atmospheric pressure. The process can be described using the following (schemes 1):

In presence of optimal catalyst with the content (Mn2O3) x • (Na2MoO4) y • (ZrO2) z the kinetic laws of oxycondensation process of methane were studied partial pressures of reactants and at different temperatures at the differential reactor conditions, and the kinetic model of the process was developed. Oxycondensation of methane can be described using the following equations:

Kinetic studies and calculations give the following kinetic parameters:

lgk1 = 24,56-18020/T; lgk2 = 10,0-9997/T; lgk3 =38,72-34073/T; lgk4 = 13,48-2855/T; lgk5 = 18,21-6104/T; lgk6 = 13,01-10904/T; lgk7 = 12,87-10114/T; where Т - temperature, K.

Ethylene formation from oxycondensation of methane is one step process and takes place at normal atmospheric pressure. The process can be described using the following reactions:

2CH4 + 1/2O2 ■ C2H6 + H2O ДИ = -176.8 kJ/mol 2C2H6 + O2 ■ 2C2H4 + 2H2O ДИ = -105.5 kJ/mol 2CH + O ■ C H + 2HO ДH = -277.51 kJ/mol

The catalytic oxycondensation reaction of methane takes place at high temperature and the condensation can be described using the kinetic equation Lang-muir-Hinshelwood mechanism. Taking into account abovementioned, the sorbtion process obeys to Lang-muir isotherm, the kinetic equation for the catalytic oxycondensation reaction of methane the following

Thus, solutions of kinetic equations are determined using the rate constant k of the reaction, and adsorption coefficient of oxygen and methane (KOj, KCH^),

partial pressures of oxygen and methane (KOj, KCH^),

and experimental rate value (W). Checking the adequacy of equations were carried out based on the mean quadratic deviation (s) between the difference of experimental and theoretical results.

Based on given equations and experimental results, it was determined the paramaters of kinetic equation sum of quadratic deviation of experimental from the theoretically calculated value differs minimally. Basis of the adequacy of kinetic equation the fulfillment of the following condition was taken:

So, adequate kinetic equation for the oxycondensation reaction of methane in presence of (Mn2O3)x •

It is eesential to test the adequacy of chosen eqa-utions (1-3) of experimental kinetic laws taken of differential reactor conditions. Taking into account of given equations and results of experiments, parameters of kinetic equations sum of quadratic deviation of experimental results must be minimally differ from the theoretically calculated results. Because of nonlinearity of proposed equations, their solution could be unlimited in mathematic way. In kinetics, solutions to equations are determined testing the adequacy for the range of the change of kinetic parameters based on the results of experiments.

Based on constants of kinetic eqautions determined at different temperatures, the activation energy of the process (Е = 33.8 kJ/mol) was calculated.

During the derivation of the kinetic equation of the oxycondensation reaction of methane limiting step was the rate of adsorption of oxygen and methane on the catalyst surface. The adsorption process on the catalyst surface is monomolecular, since oxygen and methane are adsorbed individually at active sites.

Conclusions

1. The internal diffusion retardation at the oxycondensation process of methane was analyzed.

2. Effect of different factors on the raction of ethylene formation from methane was studied.

3. The mechanis of ethylene formation from methane was proposed based on obtained results.

4. Kinetic equation characterizing the whole process was chosen and its adequacy was tested.
