What is it about?

The application of this methodology in this work, allows a better understanding of the influence of the different factors on two responses simultaneously: C1 Conversion and Aromatic Hydrocarbons Yields. Responses Surfaces were defined, finding the best combination in the reaction parameters in order to optimize the process

Why is it important?

Applying the statistic methodology, the best operation conditions obtained are: high C1 conversion (48.6 mol% C) and Aromatic Hydrocarbons Yields (47.2 mol%) were achieved working at these conditions, advancing to the results recently reported by us, where only one objective function (C1 conversion) was optimized.

Perspectives

The application of this methodology allows a better understanding of the influence of the different factors: time on stream (TOS), space velocity of C2 (GHSV-C2), molar fraction of C1/(C1 + C2) (XC1) and reaction temperature, on two responses simultaneously: C1 conversion and its conversion to Aromatic Hydrocarbons, achieving efficiency and effectiveness of this process. Box–Behnken design was development with different levels of the factors, determining its influence on the C1 conversion to Aromatic Hydrocarbons in order to obtain responses surfaces
