Abstract:
This disclosure relates to the conversion of methane to hydrocarbon of greater molecular weight, including aromatic hydrocarbon such as xylenes, to materials and equipment useful in such conversion, and to the use of such conversion for, e.g., natural gas upgrading.

Claim (Index 1):
A process for producing C 5+  hydrocarbon, the process comprising:\n (a) providing methane and at least one co-feed comprising one or more of C 2+  hydrocarbon, C 1+  organic oxygenate, and inorganic oxygenate; \n (b) providing a conversion catalyst comprising at least one molecular sieve and at least one active metal, wherein\n (i) the molecular sieve has a framework of interconnected atoms, \n (ii) the molecular sieve has an outer surface and a plurality of pores having an average pore size of 4 \u212b to 7 \u212b, \n (iii) the active metal is selected from Groups 3 to 13 of the Periodic Table, \n (iv) \u226590 wt. % of the active metal is located in the pores, and \u226410 wt. % of the active metal is proximate to the outer surface, and \n (v) the conversion catalyst includes \u226410 wt. % of metal in any form other than (A) framework metal if any and (B) the active metal; \n \n (c) contacting the methane and the co-feed with the conversion catalyst under conversion conditions which include a temperature <1200\u00b0 C. to convert at least part of the methane and co-feed to a product comprising at least 5 wt. % of C 5+  hydrocarbon based on the weight of the product; and \n (d) separating at least part of the C 5+  hydrocarbon from the product.
