The main features of performing the chemical reactions, which take place with heating of reagents under microwave irradiation, are examined. Relationships for calculation of the efficiency of transformation of microwave energy to heat for different chemical objects in the high-Q cavity are presented. Lab-scale set-up (prototype of chemical reactor with the high-frequency heating) for studying the endothermic chemical reactions has been designed and manufactured. The catalytic thermal decomposition of n-hexadecane has been carried out with the high selectivity of α-olefins formation.

Keywords:
Microwave irradiation; efficiency of transformation to heat, microwave cavity, microwave catalysis, endothermic reaction.
