Described herein are substituted polyetheramines with a low melting point which are obtainable by condensation of at least two N-(hydroxyalkyl)amines to obtain a polyetheramine and subsequent reaction of at least one remaining hydroxy group and/or, if present, at least one secondary amino group of said polyetheramine with ethylene oxide and at least one further alkylene oxide to obtain a substituted polyetheramine. Uses of such substituted polyetheramines in fields of cosmetic formulations, as crude oil emulsion brakers, in pigment dispersions of ink jets, in electro paintings, or in cementitious compositions as well as methods wherein said substituted polyetheramines are used in said fields are described herein.

A process for the conversion of methanol to olefins includes the steps of passing a feedstock comprising methanol to a fluidized bed reactor in contact with a catalyst to produce an olefin product, wherein the process at least partially deactivates the catalyst to form an at least partially deactivated catalyst; and passing spent catalyst from said at least partially deactivated catalyst to a regenerator for regeneration thereby forming regenerated catalyst and returning activated catalyst from said regenerated catalyst to said reactor via a regenerated catalyst line. An oxygen volume content in the gas-phase component at the outlet of the regenerated catalyst pipeline is controlled to be less than 0.1 percent, preferably less than 0.05% and more preferably less than 0.01% on the regenerated catalyst pipeline.
