Reaction Steps

FIG. 2 compares ethylene selectivity vs. methanol conversion over a phosphorus-loaded ZSM-5, D/r2=0.5×10−6 s−1, 1 alpha catalyst using 12:1 molar methanol:aromatic feedstock, showing similar results for ethylene selectivity between toluene and para-ethyltoluene as aromatic feedstock.
