Project Synopsis

Develop preliminary process design information for converting cow manure derived biogas into methanol.

Project Summary

METHANOL PILOT PLANT DESIGN

Process Engineering Associates, LLC (PROCESS) was contracted by the client, a manufacturer of skid-mounted processing systems, to provide a process design for a pilot-scale methanol production plant.  The plant is designed to convert biogas from cow manure into methanol using oxygen and hydrogen from electrolysis.

PROCESS provided to the client during the course of this project:
