Abstract
In various implementations, methanol is produced using a (CO+H) containing synthesis gas produced from a combined POX plus EHTR or a combined ATR plus EHTR at a pressure of 70 bar to 100 bar at the correct stoichiometric composition for methanol synthesis so that no feed gas compressor is required for the feed to the methanol synthesis reactor loop.
