BRE 600: Webinar – Green Methanol

Upcoming Sessions

DatesLocation
1/31/2024 - 1/31/2024Online - - Europe

This webinar delves into sustainable methanol production, focusing on key technical aspects. The first part of the webinar is dedicated to the production of CO2, the first of the two essential components for green methanol production. CO2 is produced within a combined cycle power plant and separated from flue gas within the carbon capture unit utilizing amine solvents. The webinar's second part focuses on green hydrogen, the second essential precursor for green methanol obtained through alkaline water electrolysis. The third segment outlines two green methanol production approaches employing two reactors for each option. The final part of the webinar focuses on methanol purification using distillation. Access to ProMax is not needed for this webinar, which will take approximately 2 hours. The webinar is hosted over WebEx, and information on how to connect to the session will be provided after registration.
