TLDR
In this paper, a carbenium ion mechanism incorporating these findings is presented for the conversion of methanol to hydrocarbons over HZSM-5, where the authors show that most of the produced ethylene is not a primary C 1 coupling product, but rather a secondary product derived from methyl attack on C 3 + olefins.About:

Methanol to Olefins (MTO): From Fundamentals to Commercialization
TL;DR: In this paper, a brief summary of the key issues for the methanol-to-olefins (MTO) reaction is given, including studies on the reaction mechanism, molecular sieve synthesis and crystallization mechanism, catalyst and its manufacturing scale-up, reactor selection and reactor scaleup, process demonstration, and commercialization.

Organic catalysis over zeolites: A perspective on reaction paths within micropores
TL;DR: A broad classification and survey of organic chemistry over zeolites is presented in this paper, which reflects, for the most part, a mechanistic rather than a process or applications frame of reference.

Selective alkylation of toluene with methanol to produce para-xylene
TL;DR: In this paper, a controlled reduction in the effective dimensions of the catalyst pore openings, and/or channels, along with deactivation of acidic surface sites, has been proposed as a mechanism for the selective production of p-xylene.

Reactions on ZSM-5-type zeolite catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, the main features of the catalytic conversion process are discussed and a mechanism is suggested for the formation of sorbed C3,C4 olefinic residues, and for initial carbon-carbon bond formation from methanol.
