Zusammenfassung:A process for the production of a liquid fuel from carbon oxides and hydrogen is disclosed. The process comprises reacting a mixture of carbon oxides and hydrogen to produce methanol. The methanol is contacted with an MTO catalyst to produce an olefin stream. The olefin stream is oligomerized with an oligomerization catalyst to produce an oligomerized olefin stream which is then hydrogenated to produce the liquid fuel streams jet fuel, diesel, and naphtha. At each stage, waste streams are produced. A syngas stream is produced comprising carbon oxides and hydrogen by (1) steam reforming, autothermal reforming, or dry reforming; or (2) partial oxidization.
