Abstract.A process of bio-methanol from biogas was studied by modifying kinetic model of reaction's Richardson and Paripatyadar comparing with laboratory data. Bio-methanol process consists of 2 steps: reforming reaction (at atmospheric pressure, temperature 500 -750 o C) and methanol synthesis (at constant pressure 40 bar, temperature 140 -280 o C). The reaction model of each step was individual simulated. Next both steps were integrated, then they were simulated using ASPEN PLUS software. This work investigated the optimum operating condition and predicted result of both reactions. The developing model was obtained, then it was applied for ten thousand liters per day of methanol. The simulation result received from reforming reaction showed increasing temperature effect to rising in CH4 and CO2 conversion and relating with laboratory result. The optimum condition of methanol synthesis is temperature 200 o C under constant pressure 40 bar.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
