2016 Annual Meeting

November 8 - 13, 2015

The growing applications of the alternative resources such as coal, natural gas, industrial wastes (CO2) and biomass prompt the rising interests of C₁ to chemicals from both academia and industries. Significant progress has been made in the past decades as some processes such as methanol to olefins (MTO), synthetic natural gas (SNG) and Fischer-Tropsch (FT) have been successfully commercialized. This session is to provide a platform for discussing recent breakthroughs in C₁ to chemicals, and to address critical issues in process development for such innovative technologies, ranging from reaction principle, catalyst synthesis, pilot tests, scale-up, and commercialization.
