[edit] Alternate pathways?

This article seems to imply that the only MTG reaction is that using the zeolite catalyst. While that's surely the most popular (and possibly the only one used industrially), there are others. For instance, Donald Pearson first showed that it could be done with polyphosphoric acid, and at lower temperatures. (In the interest of disclosure, I'm only interested in this subject because I work with such a mechanism. I most likely wouldn't even know about it otherwise... Should that indicate that the material isn't noteworthy?) --Maebnus 04:31, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Should that indicate that the material isn't noteworthy?

I think no. seems it is just that too few are interested in the process ( maybe due to being uneconomical for most circumstances ). Also I suggest to search for DME to gasoline ( and maybe write an article on this) --83.167.104.182 21:14, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
