Abstract: Aspects of the invention are associated with the discovery of processes for converting methane (CH 4), present in a methane-containing feed that may be obtained from a variety of sources such as natural gas, to higher hydrocarbons (e.g., C2+ hydrocarbons) such as C2 hydrocarbons (e.g., ethane, ethylene, and acetylene) and aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., benzene, one or more C1- or C2-substituted benzenes, and/or one or more fused ring aromatic hydrocarbons). Representative processes involve direct, non-oxidative methane conversion (NOMC), such that the need for an oxidant to form CO as an intermediate may advantageously be avoided. This reduces overall complexity and the tendency to promote unwanted side reactions that reduce hydrocarbon yields and lead to CO2 production.
