在碳和资源有限的世界里，木质纤维生物质的热化学转化为燃料和化学品被认为是化石资源衍生产品的一种有前途的替代方案。甲醇是一种潜在的产品，可用于合成各种化学品，或用作燃料电池和内燃机的燃料。应用过程集成和优化技术，对生物质制取甲醇的热力学和经济性进行了评价和优化。结果显示了能源整合的重要性，特别是热电联产对生物质有效利用的重要性。
In a carbon and resources constrained world, thermo-chemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into fuels and chemicals is regarded as a promising alternative to fossil resources derived products. Methanol is one potential product which can be used for the synthesis of various chemicals or as a fuel in fuel cells and internal combustion engines. This study focuses on the evaluation and optimization of the thermodynamic and economic performance of methanol production from biomass by applying process integration and optimization techniques. Results reveal the importance of the energy integration and in particular of the cogeneration of electricity for the efficient use of biomass.
