A composite media for non-oxidative C2H6 dehydrogenation comprises an aluminosilicate zeolite matrix, and an EDH catalyst on one or more of an external surface of the aluminosilicate zeolite matrix and internal surfaces within pores of the aluminosilicate zeolite matrix. The EDH catalyst comprises one or more of Fe, Zn, Pt, Ga, alloys thereof, and oxides thereof. A C2H6 activation system, and a method of processing a C2H6-containing stream are also described.

Composite media for non-oxidative ethane dehydrogenation, and related ethane activation systems and method of processing an ethane-containing stream

A method of forming a hydrocarbon product and hydrogen gas comprises introducing CHto a positive electrode of an electrochemical cell comprising the positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a proton-conducting membrane between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The proton-conducting membrane comprises an electrolyte material having an ionic conductivity greater than or equal to about 10S/cm at one or more temperatures within a range of from about 150&#xb0; C. to about 600&#xb0; C. A potential difference is applied between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electrochemical cell to produce the hydrocarbon product and the hydrogen gas. A CHactivation system and an electrochemical cell are also described.

Methods for producing hydrocarbon products and hydrogen gas through electrochemical activation of methane

A method of forming a hydrocarbon product and a protonation product comprises introducing CHto a positive electrode of an electrochemical cell comprising the positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a proton-conducting membrane between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The proton-conducting membrane comprises an electrolyte material having an ionic conductivity greater than or equal to about 10S/cm at one or more temperatures within a range of from about 150&#xb0; C. to about 650&#xb0; C. A potential difference is applied between the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the electrochemical cell to produce the hydrocarbon product and the protonation product. A CHactivation system and an electrochemical cell are also described.
