Abstract:
1. A process for obtaining gaseous hydrocarbons from a starting material which contains oxygen-containing hydrocarbons, the process comprising: providing the starting material; contacting the starting material with a porous catalyst at a temperature of 300-850° C. and at a pressure of 20-2000 mbar in the absence of oxygen in a converting reactor so as to form a hydrocarbon-containing product mixture by cleavage of carbon-carbon bonds in which a proportion by weight of gaseous hydrocarbons is greater than a proportion by weight of liquid hydrocarbons in the mixture; collecting a hydrocarbon-containing product gas stream of the hydrocarbon-containing product mixture, in which a weight percent of alkanes is greater than a weight percent of olefins; and introducing the product gas stream into a separation apparatus in which product fractionation is carried out.
