Abstract
The single-step synthesis of dimethyl ether from syngas has been simulated thermodynamically with the advanced process simulator Aspen plus.The influences of temperature,pressure,component of syngas,carbon dioxide content and water content in feed gas on the conversion of CO,selectivity and yield to dimethyl ether were discussed.The results of simulation were in good agreement with the experimental dates taken from a fixed micro-reactor in literature.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
