COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE
[0165] This comparative example is different from Example 4 in that, the coke control reaction is not used for on-line modification of the DMTO catalyst; and the raw material fed into the coke control zone is nitrogen, which is an inert gas and does not change the properties of the regenerated catalyst in the coke control zone, that is, a catalyst entering the reaction zone is the regenerated catalyst.
[0166] In this example, the product gas is composed of 43 wt % of ethylene, 39 wt % of propylene, 12 wt % of C.sub.4-C.sub.6 hydrocarbon compounds, and 6 wt % of other components, where the other components include methane, ethane, propane, hydrogen, CO, CO.sub.2, and the like; and the production unit consumption is 2.91 tons of methanol/ton of low-carbon olefins.
[0167] This comparative example shows that the on-line modification of a DMTO catalyst through a coke control reaction can greatly improve the performance of the catalyst and reduce the production unit consumption.
