Catalytic conversion of oxygenated compounds to low molecular weight olefins. Progress report, January 1--July 15, 1978
Description:
The conversion of methanol or synthesis gas is an attractive route for producing ethylene and propylene from coal. Utilizing a chabazite ion exchanged with ammonium and rare earth chlorides, methanol is converted to ethylene and propylene with carbon yields of 70 to 90% at reaction temperatures of 375 to 425/sup 0/C and pressures to 100 psi. Carbon disulfide in the feed at concentrations less than 200 ppM increases the operating time between regenerations from four hours to twenty hours. At car…
