FlexMethanol

Technology Owner: bse Engineering

About: Enables the sustainable use of current and CO2 with small-scale, delocalized production units built where the two components are generated, i.e. near power plants using renewable sources of energy as well as large-scale industrial plants producing CO2. The excess current will be used to produce hydrogen through discontinuous electrolysis. In a second step, methanol is produced from CO2 and hydrogen, thus leading to a valorizing of excess current and CO2 off-stream gas.

Application: Utilization

Type: Short-term Recycling

Utilization: CO2 to methanol

Location: Leipzig, Germany
