Patent ID: 8669295

Claim:
A process for preparing methanol, dimethyl ether, and low carbon olefins from syngas, wherein the process comprises the step of contacting syngas with a catalyst under the conditions for converting the syngas into methanol, dimethyl ether, and low carbon olefins, characterized in that, the catalyst contains an amorphous alloy consisting of a first component Al and a second component, said second component being one or more elements or oxides thereof selected from the third, fourth and fifth rows of Group IA, IIIA, IVA, VA, IB, IIB, IVB, VB, VIB, VIIB, and VIII, and Lanthanide series of the Periodic Table of Elements, and said second component being different from the first component Al, wherein, based on the total weight of the amorphous alloy, the amount of Al is 0.5-60 wt. %, and the amount of the second component is 40-99.5 wt. %, wherein said catalyst further comprises a matrix into which the amorphous alloy is dispersed said matrix contains an adjuvant loaded on/in the matrix.
