    The production rate of methanol is affected by various reaction variables including the catalyst, temperature, pressure, gas flow rate, and gas composition. These variables are strongly interrelated such that changing one can impact the others. There are three main reactions involved in methanol synthesis: one is exothermic and produces methanol directly from carbon monoxide and hydrogen; another is endothermic and produces carbon monoxide; and a third directly produces methanol from carbon dioxide and hydrogen exothermically. It is important to control the second reaction to minimize byproducts and efficiently convert carbon dioxide to methanol through the third reaction, while also removing excess heat from the exothermic reactions.

    Reaction Philosophy

    The production rate of MeOH varies with the reaction variables


    such as:
     Catalyst
     Temperature
     Pressure
     Circulating gas flow rate
     Synthesis gas composition, etc.

    There is a strong relation between these variables. If one of them


    changes, it generally makes some changes on other variables.

    The main reactions for methanol synthesis are

    𝐶𝑂 + 2𝐻2 ↔ 𝐶𝐻3 𝑂𝐻 (1)


    𝐶𝑂2 + 𝐻2 ↔ 𝐶𝑂 + 𝐻2 𝑂 (2)
    𝐶𝑂2 + 3𝐻2 ↔ 𝐶𝐻3 𝑂𝐻 + 𝐻2 𝑂 (3)

    Equation (1) and (3) are exothermic reaction.


    Equation (2) is endothermic reaction.

    Equation (2) produces carbon monoxide which


    is used to produce methanol by Equation (1).
    Equation (1) can produce many types of by-
    product at equilibrium. (It is a major problem
    because I cannot predict what by-product may
    show up)

    Thus,

     It is extremely important to control the


    reaction in equation (2) to avoid getting
    many types of by-products by equation
    (1). This could be done if carbon dioxide
    is converted directly to methanol by the
    reaction in equation (3).

     It is important to remove excess heat


    generated by the exothermic reactions in
    equation (1) and (3) so that reaction rate
    won’t be lowered
