Zusammenfassung:The present application relates to a process for production of hydrocarbons comprising the steps of - converting a feed stream comprising alcohols, ethers or mixtures hereof over a metal-containing zeolite based catalyst, active in dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons, in a conversion step thereby obtaining a conversion effluent, - separating said effluent to obtain an aqueous process condensate stream, a liquid hydrocarbon stream and a gaseous stream, - removing part of the hydrogen formed in the conversion step, and recycling at least part of the gaseous and/or liquid hydro- carbon stream to the conversion step.
