Techno-economic and environmental comparative assessment of two renewable methanol production routes

Small Scale Methanol Production: Process modelling and design of an autonomous, renewable container sized methanol plant

At the United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Paris in 2015, ambitious goals for the worldwide CO2 emissions were set. To achieve these goals, a huge reduction in CO2 emissions must be realized. For the energy market, the current aim is to use renewable electricity instead of fossil fuels. However, there are multiple sectors where...

Methanol Production from Syngas: Process modelling and design utilising biomass gasification and integrating hydrogen supply

Transitioning from a heavily fuel reliant economy to a sustainable future is one of the major challenges of our time. The high energy density and good storage properties of fossil fuels have made them the most important energy source for the last centuries. Moving away from fossil fuels towards greener, biomass-based energy and energy carriers...
