In this work a series of temperature programmed experiments were carried out on a Na2WO4/Mn/SiO2 catalyst. In TPR experiments we tested the reducibility of this catalyst and O-2 desorption behavior was investigated by TPD. TPSR experiments in a flow of methane, ethane or ethene gave information about the reaction network of OCM on the catalyst surface, without the presence of gas phase reactions, induced by gas phase oxygen. We found indications of involvement of two different active oxygen species on the catalyst surface. Furthermore an activation energy of 275 kJ/mole for selective methane activation was determined. Dynamic experiments were performed to determine the amount of available oxygen species for the OCM reaction. Variation of methane partial pressure and flow rate showed a linear correlation between methane partial pressure and surface oxygen conversion in dynamic experiments. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.
