The conversion of methane was investigated in a packed-bed dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma reactor operated at ambient conditions. High dielectric BaTiO3 was utilized as packing in comparison with gamma-alumina, alpha-alumina, and silica-SBA-15. Results show a considerably lower conversion of CH4 and C-2 yield for the BaTiO3 packed reactor, which is even less than that obtained for the nonpacked reactor. In contrast, the low dielectric alumina (gamma and alpha) packed reactor improved the conversion of CH4 and C-2 yield. Additionally, the alumina packed reactor shifted the distribution of C-2 compounds towards C2H4 higher than that obtained for the nonpacked reactor and resulted in a higher energy efficiency compared to the BaTiO3 packed reactor. This is attributed to the small pore size of BaTiO3 (10-200 nm) and its high dielectric constant, whereas the polarization inside small pores does not lead to the formation of an overall strong electric field.
