According to the present invention, when preparing a hydrogenation catalyst including nickel as an active ingredient, the reduction of nickel can be facilitated by using copper and sulfur as a promoter. In particular, the present invention can provide a catalyst which, while having a high nickel content, includes sulfur oxide and nickel oxide in a particular range, and thus exhibits even higher selective reduction degree for olefins while having high activity of the catalyst.

In a first stage of a methane conversion system, at least some methane (CH.sub.4) in an input gas flow stream can be converted into C.sub.2 hydrocarbons, hydrogen gas (H.sub.2), and aromatics to provide a first processed stream. The conversion can be direct non-oxidative methane conversion (DNMC). At least some of the aromatics can be removed from the first processed stream to provide a second processed stream. In a second stage of the methane conversion system, at least some of the H.sub.2 can be removed from the second processed stream to provide a recycle stream. The recycle stream can be returned to the first stage of the methane conversion system for further conversion of methane and removal of aromatics and H.sub.2 products.
