Abstract

A process for the preparation of at least two organic products from a synthesis gas by(i) converting a first synthesis gas feed to a first organic product and a first by-product;(ii) converting a second synthesis gas feed to a second organic product and a second by-product;(iii) separating the first and/or second by-product from, respectively, the first and/or second organic product, and(iv) mixing the separated first and/or second by-product with, respectively, the second and/or first organic product.Preferably, the first organic product is paraffinic hydrocarbons or oxygenates and the second organic product is olefinic hydrocarbons or oxygenates.
