The present disclosure relates to a method that includes converting a gas stream that contains hydrogen (H) and carbon monoxide (CO) to a second mixture that contains a hydrocarbon, for example, a hydrocarbon having between 3 and 15 carbon atoms, where the converting is performed using a first catalyst configured to convert Hand CO to methanol, a second catalyst configured to convert methanol to dimethyl ether (DME), and a third catalyst configured to convert DME to the hydrocarbon.

Methods, systems, and catalysts for the direct conversion of syngas to high-octane hydrocarbons

The present disclosure relates to a mixture that includes a first portion that includes at least one of a paraffin and/or a naphthene having between 5 carbons and 13 carbons, inclusively, at a first concentration between about 75 wt % and about 99 wt %, and a second portion that includes hydrocarbons having greater than 13 carbons at a second concentration of less than 0.05 wt %.
