Abstract

Production of energy or chemicals from biomass and several waste substrates appears a concrete strategy for replacing fossil fuels and reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. In particular, methanol from biomass or bio-waste is considered a reliable energy vector and key intermediate for industrial chemistry. Currently, methanol is industrially produced via syngas conversion using natural gas as the main feedstock. Bio-methane produced via anaerobic digestion (AD) of Organic Fraction Municipal Solid Wastes (OFMSW) may be used as an alternative to natural gas for production of syngas with optimal composition via commercialized reforming processes. In this work, a techno-environmental assessment for methanol production from biogas is presented and discussed. In particular, three case studies were assessed to minimize the environmental impact of bio-methanol production.
