3. A method for forming a naphtha composition, comprising:
exposing a feed comprising oxygenates and olefins to a conversion catalyst at an average reaction temperature of 230° C. to 300° C., a total pressure of 1 psig (˜7 kPa-g) to 400 psig (˜2700 kPa-g), and an oxygenate weight hourly space velocity of 0.1 hr−1 to 10.0 hr−1, to form a converted effluent comprising a net yield of 10 wt % or more of a C5+ fraction relative to a combined weight of the oxygenates and olefins, the C5+ fraction comprising 15 wt % or less aromatics, relative to a weight of the C5+ fraction, and having a research octane number (RON) of 85 or more, the feed comprising a molar ratio of oxygenates to olefins of 1 to 20,
wherein the conversion catalyst comprises 10 wt % or more of a zeolite having a framework structure of MWW, MOR, or a combination thereof.
