    Abstract: A method for directly producing ethanol from syngas, carried out in three reaction zones, including: feeding a raw material containing syngas and dimethyl ether into a first reaction zone to contact with a solid acid catalyst, reacting; allowing the effluent from the first reaction zone to enter a second reaction zone to contact with a metal catalyst and react; separating the effluent from the second reaction zone to obtain product ethanol and by-product methanol; allowing by-product methanol to enter a third reaction zone to perform a dehydration reaction to obtain dimethyl ether, and allowing the obtained dimethyl ether to enter the first reaction zone to recycle the reaction. This provides a novel method for directly converting syngas to ethanol and an ethanol product can be directly produced by using syngas as a raw material.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for preparing aromatic hydrocarbons, particularly relates to the preparation of the aromatic hydrocarbons by passing methanol and carbon monoxide through a reactor loaded with an acidic ZSM-5 molecular sieve catalyst containing no metal additive under reaction conditions. Compared with the prior art, the method provided by the present invention can improve and stabilize the selectivity to aromatic hydrocarbons, particularly BTX, by adding carbon monoxide in methanol aromatization, and also prolongs the single-pass life of the catalyst. The performance of an inactivated catalyst is not significantly degraded after repeated regenerations. Furthermore, the catalyst preparation process omits the step of adding a metal additive, so that not only the process is simplified, but also costs are greatly reduced, and environmental protection is facilitated.
