The methane leakage data in China's coal exploitation process were obtained from the statistical bulletin (National Bureau of Statistics of China, 2008). The data for the gasification process were developed according to an IGCC plant project, which represented the update technology of gasification ( NETL, 2010 ).

Efficiencies of methanol production from gas, coal, waste or wood

Efficiencies of methanol production from gas, coal, waste or wood

The production of methanol only from coal has an estimated efficiency of 41 to 55 percent; but if methane and coal liquids are produced simultaneously, the overall process efficiency can climb to 75 percent. Waste and wood can also be used as energy sources. Conversion from these sources to methanol is likely to be somewhat less efficient ...

Costs to Convert Coal to Methanol US EPA

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.

Special Issue "Coal Seam Gas—Extraction, Use and Emissions" MDPI

During the coalification process, methane gas is captured in the coal seams and later released during coal mining operations. Coal bed methane separation is crucial for both economic benefit and methane emission reduction. The methane production from seams is an efficient way to reduce greenhouse emissions and provide a safe mining operation ...

A coalbased coproduction process of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and methanol (CTLNGM) is developed and key units are simulated in this paper. The goal is to find improvements of the lowearning coal to synthesis natural gas (CTSNG) process using the same raw material but producing a lowmargin, single synthesis natural gas (SNG) product. In the CTLNGM process, there are two innovative aspects.
