 1370.    HAWK, C. O., GOLDEN, P. L., STORCH, H. H., AND FIELDNER, A. C.  Conversion of Methane to Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen.  Ind. Eng. Chem., vol. 24, 1932, pp. 23-27; Chem. Abs., vol. 26, 1932, p. 1717.

        Small-scale process has been developed for the conversion of CH₄ and steam or CO₂ into CO and H₂.  The process is intermittent, 1^st blasting the catalyst with a gas-air mixture followed by injecting the reaction mixture into the catalyst bed.  Catalysts of Ni deposited on refractory proved most satisfactory for activity and durability.  Optimum temperatures for reaction are 900°-1,000°, in which range nearly theoretical conversions were obtained.
