Abstract
Direct conversion of syngas produces liquid fuels and light olefins. The catalytic reaction is conducted on a fixed bed or a moving bed. The catalyst comprises A and B components.

The distance between the geometric centers of catalyst A and catalyst B particles is 2 nm-10 mm; a weight ratio of the catalyst A to the catalyst B is 0.1-20. The pressure of the syngas is 0.1-10 MPa; reaction temperature is 300-600° C.; and space velocity is 300-10000 h.sup.−1.

(48) Example of Catalytic Reactions
(49) A fixed bed reaction is taken as an example, but the catalyst is also applicable to a fluidized bed reactor. The apparatus is equipped with gas mass flow meters and online product analysis chromatography (the tail gas of the reactor is directly connected with the metering valve of chromatography, and thus periodic and real-time sampling and analysis will be achieved).
(50) The above catalyst in the present invention is placed in a fixed bed reactor. The air in the reactor is replaced with Ar; and then the temperature is raised to 300° C. in the H.sub.2 atmosphere, and then the syngas (H.sub.2/CO molar ratio=0.2-3.5) is switched. The pressure of the syngas is 0.5-10 MPa. The temperature is raised to reaction temperature of 300-600° C., and the air velocity of the reaction raw gas is regulated to 500-8000 ml/g/h. On-line chromatography is used to detect and analyze the product.
(51) 1. The reaction performance can be changed by changing the temperature, pressure and space velocity. The selectivity of the gasoline fraction in the product is high and can reach 50-80%. The other products are mainly light olefins with high added value, and the selectivity of the light olefins can reach 10-30%.
(52) Compared with the traditional Fischer-Tropsch synthesis technology, the selectivity of the methane byproduct is low, which is less than 10%. The gasoline composition comprises a large amount of iso-hydrocarbons with high octane value and aromatic hydrocarbons; and the linear hydrocarbons have low selectivity and high oil quality.

(64) Explanation I:
(65) Reaction results of reference examples 5 and 6 show that, the topology is crucial to the selective modulation of the products; SAPO34 structure is suitable for production of C.sub.2-C.sub.4 hydrocarbons; C.sub.3 hydrocarbon products are the most; LEV structure is suitable for production of the methane.
(66) The MEL zeolite used by the present invention has ten-membered ring orifices and a three-dimensional porous channel structure shows the special benefits not owned by zeolites of other structures. The product mainly comprises the gasoline fraction, and the content of iso-paraffins is high. At the same time, light olefins are cogenerated.

(70) Reaction results of reference examples 7 and 8 show that, long distance and short distance lead to high selectivity of the methane, and are not conducive to the production of the gasoline fraction.
(71) It is observed from the above table that the structure of the zeolite including the topologies, and the matching of the distance between the metal oxide and the zeolite are crucial and directly affect the selectivity of the gasoline fraction and the light olefins.
