Introduction
Ammonia/urea and methanol production are the pillars of the basic chemicals industry worldwide. Ammonia/urea is an important commodity used in the agriculture (fertiliser) and food industry. Whilst methanol is an important feedstock in production of various chemicals and fuel used in our daily lives. Globally (except for China), these commodities are mainly produced from NG or ljosirt hydrocarbons.
It should also be noted that both urea and methanol production (combined) are the largest users of CO2 second only to CO2-EOR.
This study presents a detailed baseline information of the performance and cost of deploying CO2 capture in a SMR Based HyCO plant using natural gas as feedstock / fuel and operating as a captive plant (i.e. integrated within an industrial complex) with an aim to evaluate the cost of capturing additional CO2 from the SMR’s flue gas.
