Abstract
/CO molar ratio between 1 and 2 suitable for methanol production could be achieved. A further demonstration shows that pressure has negative effects on gas conversion. Following the successful experimental campaign, process simulations were completed using ASPEN to show how the GSDR process can be integrated into a methanol (MeOH) production plant.
