Summary:

This report summarizes studies conducted during the past quarter on the partial oxidation of methane on the following catalysts: vanadium phosphate, unsupported and supported on silica, and on the silica (SiO₂) support. It was found that the unsupported vanadium phosphate catalyst exhibits some selectivity towards formaldehyde at relatively low methane conversions (up to 5% conversion). The selectivity decreases even further on the silica supported VPO catalyst without a significant increase in conversion. In the case of silica, the reaction temperature decreases, and the formaldehyde selectivity is higher than in the case of the VPO catalyst.
