The objective of research is to develop integrated thermochemical and SOEC-based pathways for efficient production of bio- and e-methanol from biomass and waste feedstocks.
This work addresses major challenges such as greenhouse gas emissions, reliance on fossil-based methanol (~95%), and underutilization of biomass and waste. By converting biomass and captured CO₂ into renewable methanol, it supports climate mitigation, resource efficiency, and the transition to sustainable energy systems, while aligning with industrial Power-to-X needs.
The research combines experimental, modeling, process simulation, optimization, techno-economic analysis, LCA, and digital process approaches to support scale-up toward TRL 6.
