An apparatus for producing methanol from carbon dioxide. The apparatus includes a first circulation process for a circulating water and methanol which includes an absorption stage for carbon dioxide, a desorption stage with a hydrogen feed, a first heat exchanger, an outlet, a circulation pump, and an expansion throttle. The second circulation process for methanol, water, carbon dioxide and hydrogen includes the desorption stage, a first liquid-gas phase separation stage with a return conduit for liquid phases to the desorption stage, and a gas outlet from and an inlet into the desorption stage. The third circulation process for carbon dioxide and hydrogen includes a methanol synthesis reactor, a gas outlet of the first liquid-gas phase separation stage which opens out into the third circular conduit and an inlet into which the third circular conduit opens, a second heat exchanger, a gas outlet in the third circular conduit, and a fan.

Device and method for producing methanol from carbon dioxide

The invention relates to a reactor, preferably microreactor, for methanation, and to the operation of this reactor, i.e. to the process regime for preparation of methane.

Micro-reactor and method implementation for methanation

The present invention relates to a reactor for producing synthesis gas which has a fluid-tight connection to a heat exchanger, and to a process for producing synthesis gas, preferably under high pressure, by using the reactor. The reactor comprises a mixer, a mixing space, a reactor space, separate inlets for at least two fluid reactants and an outlet for at least one fluid product, and a reactor shell surrounding these, and wherein the mixer comprises a mixer base, at least one mixer disk with channels for a first fluid, at least one mixer disk with channels for a second fluid, a mixer closure, and a mixer lid.

Reactor for producing synthesis gas

The invention relates to a micro-reactor for carrying out at least one catalytic reaction between two or more reactants in each case, comprising a stacking sequence of reaction surfaces () for carrying out at least one exothermic reaction, and a cooling region () divided at least into individual fields () with feed and discharge devices for the coolant.
