This work aims to develop a novel co-generative technology to produce methanol through bio-syngas from waste biomass. To this aim, residual biomasses in southern Italy will be characterized by proximate and ultimate analyses and used as fed in syngas production for methanol synthesis. A non-stoichiometric method based on Gibbs free energy minimization was used to simulate biomass steam gasification and subsequent syngas adjustment through WGS reaction. The processed syngas are fed to a methanol reactor consisting of a membrane for water separation, an electrolyzer splitting the water produced by methanol synthesis, and a heat exchanger for heat recovery integrated into one equipment. By this reactor, methanol production yield is studied for several gasified biomasses

To this aim, residual biomasses in southern Italy will be characterized by proximate and ultimate analyses and used as fed in syngas production for methanol synthesis. A non-stoichiometric method based on Gibbs free energy minimization was used to simulate biomass steam gasification and subsequent syngas adjustment through WGS reaction. The processed syngas are fed to a methanol reactor consisting of a membrane for water separation, an electrolyzer splitting the water produced by methanol synthesis, and a heat exchanger for heat recovery integrated into one equipment. By this reactor, methanol production yield is studied for several gasified biomassesI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
