Disclosed is a method for converting an alkyl halide to an olefin. The method includes contacting a silicoaluminophosphate (SAPO) catalyst with a feed that includes an alkyl halide under reaction conditions sufficient to produce an olefin hydrocarbon product that includes C2 to C4 olefins. The SAPO...
