The conventional way to make gasoline from gas is to convert the gas to a synthesis gas, then into methanol, followed by conversion to straight-chain hydrocarbons and finally via reforming into a high-octane hydrocarbon blend. This method of conversion is much more effective and cheaper than the traditional method. Jean-Marie Bassett.
