Abstract

The increasing demand for olefins and continuous depletion of world oil reserves necessitated
alternative routes to produce light olefins using non-petroleum feedstocks. Hence, MTO has
attracted much attention; the conversion of methanol to olefin (MTO) has gained significant
attention in the recent years due to potential in providing alternative routes for the production
of valuable petrochemicals. Overall, this review offers a comprehensive analysis of
conversion of methanol to olefins over zeolite-based catalysts. It provides valuable insight
into current challenges and potential areas for future research, making it a useful resource for
researchers, engineers and professionals working in the field of catalysis and petrochemical
production.
