New Ceramic Membrane Enables Direct Conversion of Natural Gas To Liquids
 
Engineered ceramics manufacturer CoorsTek has announced that a team of scientists from CoorsTek Membrane Sciences, the University of Oslo (Norway), has developed a new process to use natural gas as raw material for aromatic chemicals. The process uses a novel ceramic membrane to make the direct, non-oxidative conversion of gas to liquids possible for the first time reducing cost, eliminating multiple process steps, and avoiding any carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The resulting aromatic precursors are source chemicals for insulation materials, plastics, textiles, and jet fuel, among other valuable products. Read article
