OCM advantages over FT GTL 
- Fewer process steps
- Lower capital
- Higher energy efficiency
- One fungible fuel product
EcoCatalytic Advantages over catalytic OCM
- Chemical Looping reactor uses air, not oxygen,
reducing capital and operating costs - Efficient heat control without co-pyrolysis of ethane
- Inexpensive, scalable, fluid catalyst
