CO2: A Valuable Source of Carbon

Part of the book series: Green Energy and Technology ((GREEN))

Abstract

The basics of the process architecture to produce methanol from CO2 using renewable hydrogen are discussed and integrated within a process scheme to analyse the effects of variables such as capital investment (CI), variable operating and CO2 at site costs, electric power need for Nm3 of produced H2. These estimations are used to provide a comparison of the overall production cost with conventional hydrocarbon-based technology.
