UKCCSRC 2018: Report and data resulting from the UKCCSRC project 'Optimising methanol production from steel manufacture off-gases'
Two categories of data are presented: 1) Experimental data of catalyst performance under conditions for a Blast Furnace Gas (BFG) to methanol to process, comprising the monitored gas phase species evolution in a single channel micro reactor. 2) Process simulation and techno-economic analysis of the BFG-to-methanol process, comprising Aspen Plus V10 anotated process flowsheet, process model summary, stream results, reactor performances and cost analysis calculation. Funded by UKCCSRC 2018 Flexible Funding Call
Monitoring the gas-phase effluent of an in a single-channel fixed-bed reactor using by using Mass Spectrometry (MS) and an ABB detector connected to the MS. Two catalysts have been evaluated; 1) synthesised Cu nanoparticles supported on Cerium dioxide is explained in this section (all samples had a Cu loading between 10% to 20%); 2) A commercial a commercial Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalyst. A process simulation flowsheet of the Blast Furnace Gas to Methanol process assembled in Aspen Plus V10. This enabled the mass & energy balances to be calculated, enabling the calculation of CAPEX, OPEX and economic potential.
