Ignition and Quenching Behaviour of High Pressure CH<sub>4</sub> Catalytic Combustion over a LaMnO<sub>3</sub> Honeycomb

In the present work, we report experimental results for the behaviour of a LaMnO3-based honeycomb in the catalytic combustion of methane, in particular during the start-up and shut-down operations at different pressures. Methane ignition is mainly driven by heterogeneous reactions. The temperature i...
