Methanol Plant and Its Constraints Sample Clauses

Methanol Plant and Its Constraints. Methanol plant produces methanol from syngas which is output of the POX plant. Methanol is commonly used as a raw material for chemical products. It is defined in Annual Information Form (2004) as “a colorless liquid that is typically used as a chemical feedstock in the manufacture of other products”. The process of converting syngas to methanol is following: first, syngas coming from POX plant is cooled and compressed. Then, it passes through copper-zinc catalyst. Thus, crude methanol is produced. We want to highlight that crude methanol is not pure methanol but it includes approximately 20% of water. At the last stage the water and impurities are removed in order to get chemical-grade methanol. Figure below illustrates the process of converting syngas to methanol. Figure 7-4 Methanol production process (Gradassi and Green, 1995) The price of methanol strongly depends on the natural gas price and from this point of view, the natural gas prices is critical factor in methanol production. Xxxxxxxxx (1999), states that the production of methanol is a subject to a high risk in terms of profitability. In many cases it is essential to make analysis whether it is profitable to open a methanol plant in the cluster. This mainly depends on the situation of the market. Figure below represents the flows of the methanol plant. Figure 7-5 Input and output flow of the Methanol plant In the south of Trondheim in Tjeldbergodden there is an industrial cluster which consists of methanol plant. Air separation plant, bio-protein plant and harbor are linked to the methanol plant. This facility has access to natural gas through the Haltenpipe line (StatoilHydro webpage, 2009) Methanol Plant variables:
