Low Carbon Methanol from Biogenic Sources

26 Jun 2025
Hydrogen & Alternative Fuel Production

The presentation explores the potential of integrating a compact carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technology with green methanol technology in a Kraft process plant. We employed electrolyzer vendor data, plus in house data for KBR Carbon Capture rotating packed bed technology KCap and KBR Methanol technology PureM to evaluate the feasibility and costs of capturing CO2 emissions from pulp and paper mills and converting them into green methanol.

The levelized costs of each step of the process from green hydrogen, captured CO2 and green methanol is presented. The effects of the US Inflation Reduction Act and European carbon taxes are also evaluated. The results indicate that the implementation of CCU in the pulp and paper industry is feasible and is an excellent and abundant source of biogenic carbon to support the production of the volumes needed for green methanol for shipping fuel and chemical uses. These findings suggest that the pulp and paper industry can play a crucial role in the transition to a low-carbon economy by adopting innovative CCU technologies with smart integration with the process.
