Table 4 Change in Gibbs energy and enthalpy for different steps from methanol and DME to olefins. The gases in rows 4-7 were approximated as ideal; the liquids assumed as ideal mixtures. Thermodynamic property data were taken from [68] for ideal gas and liquid states. The real gases in rows 8 and 9 were calculated by Aspen Plus® with a modified EOS SRK for polar components [81]
