Abstract
Disclosed is a hydrocarbon conversion process that is less energy intensive than comparable processes. The hydrocarbon conversion process is particularly desirable for converting alkanes, such as methane into Colefins, such as ethylene and propylene, particularly with increasing selectivity to ethylene production. It is also desirable for effectively removing a Ccomposition (i.e., ethane, ethylene and/or acetylene) produced from the catalytic conversion of hydrocarbon comprised of Colefins. In addition, the hydrocarbon process is desirable for providing a substantially non-cryogenic separation of the desired Ccompositions from the hydrocarbons (e.g., methane) present in the reaction mixture.
