Overall, the coaltomethanol process has the greatest demand for green hydrogen. However, the uncertainty of hydrogen flowrate has a great impact on the system, and the highvalue utilization is also limited by the lowgrade waste heat at a relatively low temperature. The coaltoSNG process shows the smallest demand for green hydrogen.

A number of technologies were developed over the years to produce methanol, including several feedstocks, such as natural gas, coal, and biomass or CO 2 —the latter directly recoverable from the atmosphere [3,7].. From an historic point of view, methanol production processes took place before the 1660s (by Robert Boyle).
The process. Methanol is an intermediate for the coaltoolefins (CTO) process and a direct feedstock for the methanoltoolefins (MTO) process. To produce the methanol intermediate for the CTO process, coal gasification produces syngas (carbon monoxide), which is then converted to methanol by traditional technologies.

The coaltomethanol process can be divided into four major cost areas: coal purchase, coal gasification, gas preparation, and methanol synthesis. The contribution to the plantgate cost was estimated for each area except for coal purchase by dividing the plant capital and operating costs among the areas and calculating a product price for each.

The methanoltoaromatics (MTA) process is regarded as a promising route to produce aromatic commodities through nonpetroleum carbon resources, such as biomass, waste, coal, natural gas, and CO2. In contrast with the industrially implemented methanoltoolefin (MTO) process, most MTA studies are still in the laboratoryscale stage. Recently, a few demonstration plants of MTA have been ...
The liquidphase methanol process, through its superior heat management capabilities, can handle the synthesis gas straight from the generator, as it has a ratio of 1:1 to 1:2 as generated by coal gasifiers (Tijm et al., 2001). However, the ideal ratio H 2 /CO 2 responds to Eq. ().

The methanol production process is a lowpressure process. Methanol is produced from natural gas, collected gases from refining processes, gas synthesis, coal and coke, or even biomass. Methanol is industrially synthesized from coal or natural gas. The reforming step in methanol production is done in different ways.

The traditional polygeneration process of coaltomethanol/power is shown in Fig. 1 [3]. Coal is converted into the crude syngas in the gasifier. After heat recovery and scrubbing, the crude syngas is separated into two parts. One part is sent for water gas shift (WGS) unit and then mixed with a part of unshifted syngas for methanol synthesis.
The coaltomethanol (CTM) is an important technical route for methanol production. The process suffers from high CO2 emission and low energy efficiency due to the mismatch of H/C (hydrogentocarbon) ratio between raw coal and products. Hydrogen production from renewable energy can be introduced into the system to meet the H/C ratio.

Several aspects of the process for producing methanol from syngas are different from those needed when using a pure source of CO 2 and H example, the formation of methanol from CO is based on CO reacting directly with H 2 to produce CH 3 OH; the conversion is significantly more exothermic at− kJ/mol relative to Reaction 2 above (Ott et al., 2012).
