ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method for converting methane into higher hydrocarbons. According to the invention, a catalyst comprised essentially of a metal belonging to the series of transition metals and of a carrier which is comprised particularly of a refractory metal oxide is subjected to a methane flow at a temperature comprised between 100.degree. C. and 300.degree. C. approximately, with a contact time of at least one second, and to a hydrogen flow at a temperature comprised between 100.degree. C. and 300.degree. C. with a contact time of at least one second. The method of the invention is particularly usable in chemical engineering.
