“…The first step is to produce hydrogen by water electrolysis. The second step is the methanation (Sabatier reaction) between H 2 and CO 2 to produce synthetic natural gas (SNG) [42,43]. The produced SNG is easy to store and can be transported in existing natural gas pipelines.…”

“…The question about the integration of Power‐to‐X into an existing energy system or industry intrinsically includes the question which Power‐to‐X technology is suited best for which energy scenario. Most publications consider Power‐to‐gas , Power‐to‐liquid, often also referred to as Power‐to‐fuel , Power‐to‐heat , and Power‐to‐chemicals individually, some of them also collectively , . The publications typically consider different performance indicators, i.e., economics, sustainability, efficiency, infrastructure, technology readiness level, etc., as well as a variety of boundary conditions to provide a holistic assessment of the technology.…”

In this paper, it is argued that beyond such e-Production many of these technologies also include aspects related to demand side management and temporal storage of electricity. Therefore, a definition of Powerto-X is suggested that encompasses all three aspects. It is discussed, which of these are relevant under which conditions and illustrative examples are highlighted, which show how process systems engineering can help address common challenges for Power-to-X technologies.

“…Recently, academic studies on the integration of the methanation reaction with oxycombustion system within the P2G strategy have appeared claiming the feasibility of the process [83][84][85]. Moreover, Meylan et al [86] analyzed several scenarios for the use of CO 2 emissions in the light of EU directives. They conclude that to valorize the CO 2 issued from fossil resources by methanation could make sense, since it allows significant emissions savings exemplifying a possible process for the cement industries where valorization of the unavoidable CO 2 emissions can help decrease industrial emissions of GHG.…”

The current scenario where the effects of global warming are more and more evident, has motivated different initiatives for facing this, such as the creation of global policies with a clear environmental guideline. Within these policies, the control of Greenhouse Gase (GHG) emissions has been defined as mandatory, but for carrying out this, a smart strategy is proposed. This is the application of a circular economy model, which seeks to minimize the generation of waste and maximize the efficient use of resources. From this point of view, CO2 recycling is an alternative to reduce emissions to the atmosphere, and we need to look for new business models which valorization this compound which now must be considered as a renewable carbon source. This has renewed the interest in known processes for the chemical transformation of CO2 but that have not been applied at industrial level because they do not offer evident profitability. For example, the methane produced in the Sabatier reaction has a great potential for application, but this depends on the existence of a sustainable supply of hydrogen and a greater efficiency during the process that allows maximizing energy efficiency and thermal control to maximize the methane yield. Regarding energy efficiency and thermal control of the process, the use of structured reactors is an appropriate strategy. The evolution of new technologies, such as 3D printing, and the consolidation of knowledge in the structing of catalysts has enabled the use of these reactors to develop a wide range of possibilities in the field. In this sense, the present review presents a brief description of the main policies that have motivated the transition to a circular economy model and within this, to CO2 recycling. This allows understanding, why efforts are being focused on the development of different reactions for CO2 valorization. Special attention to the case of the Sabatier reaction and in the application of structured reactors for such process is paid.
