One company wants to produce 3.6 million tons of methanol. There are 4 sets with a capacity of 900,000 tons, 3 sets with a capacity of 1.2 million tons, and 2 sets with a capacity of 1.8 million tons – which option is more cost-effective? The raw material is natural gas.
Which process is more economical and better?
2 sets of 180 are more cost-effective; is the use of natural gas to produce methanol **approved?
Natural gas-to-methanol projects carried out abroad.
3 sets at 120, no need to say more.
It seems that 3 sets of 120 would be necessary; they’re too small and not cost-effective, but they’re also too large, which makes subsequent production and handling difficult
