FremgangsmÕte for omdannelse av oksygenater til olefiner

摘要

The present invention provides a method for converting a feed containing oxygenates to olefins and comprises the following steps: providing a feed including an oxygenate; contacting the feed in a reactor apparatus with a catalyst including a molecular sieve, the contacting taking place under conditions effective to convert the oxygenate to a product including a light olefin, the conditions including a gas superficial velocity of at least two meters per second at least one point in the reaction zone; and recirculating a first portion of the catalyst to recontact the feed.
