Highly Exothermic
High concentration of durene that causes carburetor “icing”
Catalyst aging • Reversible- caused by coked catalyst• Irreversible- caused by the steam
Band aging• Allows the reactant to break through the bed unconverted
Unconverted methanol may be lost from dissolving in water
Inability to directly produce diesel and jet fuel.
Constraints of the MTG process

ZSM-5 In the 1970's, Mobil synthesized a new zeolite catalyst (ZSM-5),
which became a key element in the MTG process. Zeolites are porous, crystalline materials with three dimensional
framework composed of AlO4 and SiO4 tetrahedral. ZSM-5 catalyst produces the right kind of shape and size selectivity
properties suitable for gasoline synthesis.

Environmental Review
• Production of methanol from synthesis gas generates a limited pressure to the environment.
• Methanol is a compound of relative low toxicity.
• All plant waste effluents will be regularly analyzed and checked to meet environmental restrictions and conditions.

Syngas to Methanol• The overall reaction in which methanol is produced from synthesis gas is
summarized by the following equation:
+ + → + + heat
• Cu-Zn is the Copper – Zinc Catalyst used in the reaction. • The methanol produced contains a large range of impurities which have
to be removed to produce methanol of chemical grade quality. • In addition, side reactions occur during methanol production, such as the
generation of higher alcohols (ethanol, propanol, butanol) and alkanes.
