Techno-Economic Analysis of Biomethanol Production via Hybrid Steam Reforming of Glycerol with Natural Gas

“…It requires 0.59 tonne of natural gas per tonne of methanol, of which 0.5 tonne of methane if for the reforming. These data obtained for the SMR (base case) is in agreement with the data given in the literature (which is 0.5 tonne of CH 4 to produce a tonne of methanol) …”

“…These data obtained for the SMR (base case) is in agreement with the data given in the literature (which is 0.5 tonne of CH 4 to produce a tonne of methanol). 19 Table 3 summarizes the energy balance for all six cases. It is observed that the overall heat required is slightly increased for the HSR process (relative to the base case).…”

Performance Improvement of Nanocatalysts by Promoter-Induced Defects in the Support Material: Methanol Synthesis over Cu/ZnO:Al

“…For this study, we varied the concentration of Al 3+ ([Al]) in the mixed copper(II)/zinc/aluminum nitrate solution used for coprecipitation of the catalyst precursor (for details, see Figure S1 in the Supporting Information). The Cu:Zn ratio was fixed to 70:30 in all of the samples, and the highest Al content was [Al] = 13 mol % (metal-based), representing a typical composition of a state-of-the-art industrially employed system . From there, [Al] was lowered while all other synthesis conditions were kept constant.…”

Energy-Efficient Routes for the Production of Gasoline from Biogas and Pyrolysis Oil─Process Design and Life-Cycle Assessment

“…In this case, we use natural gas as the starting material, as done by Mobil in the Mobil MTG process in 1978 in New Zealand. 57 In the original MTG process, the first step is achieved by steam reforming the natural gas. However, steam reforming is an energy-intensive and expensive step.…”

“…In the conventional synthetic gasoline process, the starting material could either be natural gas or coal. In this case, we use natural gas as the starting material, as done by Mobil in the Mobil MTG process in 1978 in New Zealand . In the original MTG process, the first step is achieved by steam reforming the natural gas.…”
