Abstract
A process is disclosed for enhancing the conversion of carbon monoxide within the regenerator of a methanol conversion unit used to regenerate spent catalysts from the conversion of methanol by the addition of controlled amounts of either copper chromite, cobalt chromite, or mixtures thereof. Conversion of carbon monoxide in the regenerator is accomplished while maintaining the efficiency of the methanol conversion unit at high levels.
