Coupling Ethanol with Synthetic Fuel

摘要

This paper presents results of research on the new coupling reaction of ethanol toward higher hydrocarbons (ethanol to gasoline, ETG), which is based on the MTG (methanol to gasoline) reaction focused on selectivity toward ethers, iso- and n-alkanes, and on the activation energy of the ETG reaction. Our paper also reports on the influence of total pressure on the selectivity of the ETG reaction.
