Title: Method for converting methane-containing gaseous hydrocarbon mixtures to liquid hydrocarbons
Inventor: CANTRELL JOEL G
Filed: 2002-06-14
Abstract: A process for the conversion of normally gaseous methane-hydrocarbon mixtures (1), such as natural gas, to a normally liquid hydrocarbon product (10) is disclosed, which comprises separating the methane component of the gaseous mixture from the heavier hydrocarbon component, cracking the separated heavier hydrocarbon component (3) at a relatively low temperature and optionally cracking the methane component at a relatively high temperature.
