Abstract
process for co-production of methanol and ammonia in parallel based on autothermal reforming with oxygen enriched air from electrolysis of water and separation of air and preparation of ammonia with hydrogen from the electrolysis of water and nitrogen from the separation of air.
Claims (4)
1. Process for the co-production of methanol and ammonia in parallel sing the steps of (a) providing a hydrocarbon feed stock; (b) preparing a separate hydrogen stream and a te oxygen stream by electroly- sis of water; (c) preparing a separate oxygen stream and a separate nitrogen stream by separation of air; 10 (d) introducing at least part of the separate oxygen stream from step (b) and at least part of the separate oxygen from step (0) into an autothermal er; (e) in the autothermal reformer autothermal reforming the hydrocarbon feed stock from step (a) to a methanol synthesis gas comprising hydrogen and carbon oxides; (f) converting the methanol synthesis gas to raw methanol in a methanol sis 15 stage; and in parallel (g) introducing the at least part of the separate hydrogen stream from step (b) and the separate nitrogen stream from step (c) into an ammonia synthesis loop and converting the nitrogen and hydrogen stream to ammonia. 2O
2. Process of claim 1, wherein module -CO2)/(CO+CO2)) of the methanol synthesis gas from step (e) is adjusted to a value of between 1.9 and 2.2 by adding a part of the separate hydrogen stream from step (b) into the methanol synthesis gas from step (e). 25
3. Process of claim 1 or 2, n the separate hydrogen stream from step (b) and the separate nitrogen stream from step (c) are introduced into the ammonia syn- thesis loop in amounts to provide a molar ratio of the hydrogen to the nitrogen of 2.7- 30
4. Process of any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the electrolysis of water and/or the separation of air is powered by renewable energy.
