MTO

Methanol to Olefins (MTO)

Optimize Your Methanol Feed for Maximum Olefin Yield and Cost-Effective Uninterrupted Operations.

Honeywell UOP's Advanced MTO Technology offers the most efficient utilization of your methanol feed, aiming for the lowest production costs, and prioritizing reliable and uninterrupted operations with exceptional benefits that enhance your overall process efficiency.

MTO

Building on the success of our standard MTO process package and leveraging our deep technical knowledge, UOP continues to innovate in the MTO space. In addition to offering new units for license, working with UOP’s subject matter experts can help customers improve performance of commercial operating units by reducing methanol consumption, optimizing catalyst makeup rates and expanding production while saving energy, minimizing waste generation, and reducing CO2 emissions. UOP’s MTO solutions offer value-added components such as revamps for process stability, partial regeneration DME recovery, and associated OCP upgrades., UOP is uniquely positioned to offer Connected Services and a carbon-neutral solution.

Advanced MTO and partial regeneration process technology produces light olefins at lower costs and higher yields compared to traditional technologies using cost-advantaged alternative feedstocks, such as natural gas or coal via methanol.

What’s new for MTO?
 

MTO-600, the latest generation of UOP MTO Catalyst. As a drop-in replacement for MTO-100, MTO-600 can increase ethylene and propylene yield up to 1% and 10% capacity;while maintaining the methanol conversion rate.

UOP eFining®: Honeywell MTO technology supports production of electro-sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) from renewable energy and captured CO₂. As an established global commodity, methanol gives fuel producers the flexibility to blend or switch between renewable and conventional supply—helping manage volatility and keep fuel output steady.
