Abstract

Carbon monoxide and molecular hydrogen are converted to an alcohol mixture, which is separated into a first methanol-containing stream and a second C2+ alcohol-containing stream. The first stream's methanol is converted into a propylene-rich product, and the second stream's C2+ alcohol is converted to ethylene and additional propylene.
