Abstract

Prospects for the development of technologies for natural gas processing to obtain synthetic fuels and chemical and petrochemical products are considered. Comparative analysis of the existing commercial technologies that should be upgraded to enhance the energy efficiency and expand the range of products and of the newly developed innovation technologies allowing direct production of demanded high-value-added products from the gas feedstock is made.
