Abstract

It is known to convert methanol and/or other relatively low molecular weight organic compounds containing at least one oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen or halogen hetero atom to high octane gasoline by contacting such with a particular group of crystalline aluminosilicate zeolites at conversion conditions. The instant disclosure shows improvements in total gasoline production from such process by inclusion of natural gas liquid or other light hydrocarbons having low octane numbers, preferably paraffinic, in the feed to said process thereby converting at least a portion of these lighter materials as well to high octane gasoline boiling range components.
