Abstract
A dehydrogenative coupling process to convert alkanes to longer chain olefins in a single process step is described. The approach described combats the thermodynamics of traditional dehydrogenation by consuming the products as they form. This dehydrogenative coupling reaction may be performed in a single reactor which could enable increased per-pass yield of desirable Colefins compared to a traditional two reactors in a series.
