Study of methanol-to-gasoline process for production of gasoline from coal

The methanol-to-gasoline (MTG) process is an efficient way to produce liquidfuel. The academic basis of the coal-to-liquid process is described and two different synthesis processes are focused on: Fixed MTG process and Fluid Bed MTG process. Then,the superiority of the Fluid Bed MTG Process is pointed out relative to the Fixed MTGProcess. In addition, the development of the coal-to-liquid technique in China is brieflysummarized.
