From residual steel gasses to methanol (FReSMe)

Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2020,

The FReSMe project, From Residual Steel gases to Methanol, will produce a methanol that will be demonstrated in ship transportation. This green fuel will be produced from CO2, recovered from an industrial Blast Furnace, and H2 recovered both from the blast furnace gas itself, as well as H2 produced by electrolysis. The two different sources of H2 will enable (i) maximum use of the current residual ...

Synthesis of methanol from captured carbon dioxide using surplus electricity (MefCO2)

Start date: Dec 1, 2014, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

Methanol represents one of the most common and widespread platform chemicals and precursors for further synthesis, and is traditionally produced from synthesis gas, obtained by the reforming of natural gas. This methanol synthesis process operates in a stable, high-throughput manner and demands low carbon dioxide/carbon monoxide ratios in feed. The current project, nonetheless, is to encompass fle ...

ELECTRA

Start date: Mar 3, 2014, End date: Mar 2, 2017,

"High temperature electrolysers (HTEs) produce H2 efficiently utilising electricity from renewable sources and steam from solar, geothermal, or nuclear plants. CO2 can be co-electrolysed to produce syngas and fuels. The traditional solid oxide electrolyser cell (SOEC) leaves wet H2 at the steam side. ELECTRA in contrast develops a proton ceramic electrolyser cell (PCEC) which pumps out and pressur ...

Production of Cyclic Carbonates from CO2 using Renewable Feedstocks (CYCLICCO2R)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

The concept of CyclicCO2R is to create a process that removes the dependency on fossil fuel and increases the energy efficiency to create a net CO2 uptake in the production of cyclic carbonates. This objective will be reached by basing the process on the use of renewables and CO2 in the production of cyclic carbonates. Two routes will be explored: 1) production of glycerol carbonate methacrylate f ...
