Method and system for methanol production

Abstract

A method of producing methanol using a membrane gas absorption unit and at least one reactor. To produce methanol, a membrane gas absorption unit and a reactor are provided, each membrane gas absorption unit having a plurality of membranes, and each reactor having at least one section having a flocculator producing a pulsated magnetic field. The membrane gas absorption unit is first used to capture CO2 from a desired source. The captured CO2 is then supplied in a liquid form to the reactor. A hydrogen is supplied to the same reactor, and both captured CO2 and the hydrogen are then subjected to the pulsated magnetic field within the reactor to obtain a mixture of water and methanol. Finally, the water is distilled from the methanol to obtain pure methanol.
