Process for the production of gasoline from syngas using a catalyst including a step for regeneration of the catalyst

摘要

The present invention relates to a new and advantageous catalyst for use during a single-stage gasoline production process from syngas and a process making use of the same. During the process according to the invention, the catalyst can be recycled in an easy manner without stopping the process. Such a process is more economic and still further leads to constant octane numbers of the product at values of about 95. The new process prevents the catalyst from deactivation and increases its capacity, resulting in better conversion rates, becoming even better after each recycling step. Also, with the process according to the invention the catalyst's lifetime is significantly prolonged, making the whole process more economic.
