Performance comparison of WO3/SiO2 to ZSM-5 and γ-Al2O3 in the catalytic dehydration of methanol
The performance of ZSM-5, γ-Al2O3 and WO3/SiO2 catalysts for the dehydration of methanol was studied in a fixed bed reactor over a temperature range of 150 to 450 °C and at atmospheric pressure. A parallel reaction scheme for dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether and methane was proposed for the...
