Abstract
The influence of pressure on the oxidative cracking of light alkanes C2—C4 was investigated. An elevated pressure reduces the temperature of oxycracking of light alkanes but with further increase in pressure the effect is reduced. The applied pressure decreases the temperature of the total conversion of oxygen while the maximum conversion of alkanes is not influenced. The pressure above atmospheric promotes oxidative cracking reactions but weakly affects thermal processes. At deep conversion of light alkanes, the selectivity towards main products is nearly invariable at the utilized pressures.
