Abstract

The conversion of methane, ethylene and mixtures of them in aqueous solutions was studied using ultrasonic vibrations with a frequency of 22 kHz under conditions of cavitation. It is found that formaldehyde, the main product, forms even if there is no dissolved oxygen in the initial solution. It is shown that the rate of accumulation of formaldehyde depends on the power of the ultrasound and the amount of molecular oxygen introduced into the system.
