Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a process for producing hydrocarbons from methane, which comprises, in a first stage (i), reacting methane to form ethylene and, in a later stage (ii), reacting the product mixture obtained in stage (i) which comprises ethylene and methane to give higher-value hydrocarbons. In addition, the present invention relates to a plant for producing hydrocarbons from methane in which, in a single plant strand, a plurality of plant units are arranged successively in series comprising: a first reactor A for carrying out a conversion from methane to ethylene a second reactor B for carrying out a conversion from ethylene to higher-value hydrocarbons.
