Abstract: | The movement of reactants in a large methanol-to-olefin reactor bed was visualized by fast scanning synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Changes in the structure of the catalyst showed the formation of reaction intermediates and coke, which can be tracked along the reactor bed. The observations lead to a new model for the progress of the reaction and explain the role of methanol in coke formation. |
