Abstract: Methane decomposition on silica-supported noble metal catalysts was deeply investigated by means of the temperature programmed surface reaction (TPSR).The results obtained show that methane can be effectively decomposed into different surface carbons, which show different reactivities and features to form higherhydrocarbons.
