Abstract:
Utilizing the common knowledge formula for creation of methanol CO2+3H2→CH3OH+H2O; for each mole of carbon dioxide, three moles of hydrogen are needed to produce one equivalent unit of methanol.Mixing two gases and producing methanol can be accomplished per the one-line diagram concept, FIG. 1, and gas mixing apparatus, FIG. 2; under high pressure (from 3250 to 5000 psi) and high temperature (750 to 800° F.) without the presence of a catalyst.The hypothesis in this case is that the closer the mixing temperature is to the auto-ignition of hydrogen, the higher is the quality of the mixing environment. The mixing temperature in my invention is guided by the auto-ignition of hydrogen in this case (auto-ignition for hydrogen is 932° F. (or 500° C.) and the auto-ignition temperature for methanol is 867° F. (or 464° C.).After mixing the two gases, the result is methanol and water. The first step in this stage is to cool the substance by way of cooling tower, followed by a pressure lowering tank.Next is a separation process to separate methanol and water. By cooling the substance/mixture about 28.4° F. (−2° C.), the water will freeze, turning into ice, and ice will be removed from methanol mechanically. Water and methanol then will be stored in appropriate tanks (FIG. 1).
