Liquid phase methanol LaPorte PDU: Modification, operation, and support studies; Quarterly technical progress report No. 5, 1 July--30 September 1988

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:720270
The work under this contract will be to implement and test certain process improvements identified through the engineering studies completed under DOE Contract AC22-85PC80007, to demonstrate the capability of long-term catalyst activity maintenance, and to perform process and design engineering work that is generic to a scaled-up Liquid Phase Methanol (LPMEOH) facility. A series of process development unit (PDU) runs will be performed to extend the testing of the process improvements. A parallel research program will be conducted to enhance the LPMEOH technical data base to improve the likelihood of commercialization of the LPMEOH process.
