HEAT TRANSFER CIRCUIT FOR GENERATION OF STEAM IN CONVERSION OF METHANOL TO GASOLINE

Heat generated during the catalytic conversion of oxygenate reactants to hydrocarbons, e.g., conversion of methanol to gasoline, is recovered by transferring heat of reaction from hot catalyst particles to a liquid-phase heat exchange medium. The resulting heated liquid-phase heat exchange medium is...

More Information
Summary:Heat generated during the catalytic conversion of oxygenate reactants to hydrocarbons, e.g., conversion of methanol to gasoline, is recovered by transferring heat of reaction from hot catalyst particles to a liquid-phase heat exchange medium. The resulting heated liquid-phase heat exchange medium is then subsequently maintained in heat exchange relationship with water to thereby convert the water to steam.
