Hynol—An economical process for methanol production from biomass and natural gas with reduced CO2 emission

TLDR
The Hynol process as discussed by the authors is proposed to meet the demand for an economical process for methanol production with reduced CO2 emission, which consists of three reaction steps: (a) hydrogasification of biomass, (b) steam reforming of the produced gas with additional natural gas feedstock, and (c) synthesis of the hydrogen and carbon monoxide produced during the previous two steps.

Bio-syngas production from biomass catalytic gasification

TL;DR: In this article, the characteristics of biomass gasification gas, such as H(2)/CO and tar yield, as well as its potential for liquid fuel synthesis is explored. And the results indicate that an appropriate temperature (750 degrees C for the current study) and more catalyst are favorable for getting a higher H( 2)/CO ratio.
