The Science Behind Why Water-Methanol Injection Works So Well

Methanol (CH3OH) - Structure, Molecular mass, Properties & Uses of Methanol (CH3OH)

Methanol

Methanol is produced by reacting carbon monoxide and hydrogen. A fresh feed stream containing CO and H2 joins a recycle stream and the combined stream is fed to a reactor. The reactor outlet stream flows at a rate of 350 mol / min and contains 10.6 wt % H2, 64.0 wt % CO, and 25.4 wt % CH3 OH . (Notice that those are percentages by mass, not mole percents.) This stream enters a cooler in which most of the methanol is condensed. The liquid methanol condensate is withdrawn as a product, and the gas

Methanol is synthesized from carbon monoxide and hydrogen in a catalytic reactor. The fresh feed to the process contains 32.0 mole % CO, 64.0 % H 2, and 4.0 % Ne. This stream is mixed with a recycle stream in a ratio 5 mol recycle/ 1 mol fresh feed to produce the feed to the reactor, which contains 13.0 mole% N2. A low single-pass conversion is attained in the reactor. The reactor effluent goes to a condenser from which two streams emerge: a liquid product stream containing essentially all the m

SOLVED: 2.Methanol is produced in the reaction of carbon dioxide and hydrogen CO 3H-CH3OH HO The fresh feed to the process contains hydrogen, carbon dioxide,and 0.4mole% inerts 1.The reactor effluent passes to a condenser that removes essentially all the methanol and water formed in the reaction. However, none of the reactants and inerts are removed. The latter substances are recycled to the reactor. To avoid buildup of the inerts in the system, a purge stream is withdrawn from the recycling.
