Obiettivo
The main objectives are:
- To study the process integration of the Black Liquor Gasification with Motor Fuels production (BLGMF) system with an existing, and a future modern ecocyclic, pulp mill for the production of renewable energy sources in the form of CO2 neutral fuels for automotive uses. The emphasis of the study will be to use existing conditions for creating added value for the pulp mill industry;
- To study the technical and economical feasibility of black liquor gasification integrated with methanol/DME production as motor fuels for automotive uses. A preliminary engineering study will be made for the plant with a +/- 30% cost estimate;
- To investigate a group of stakeholders willing to support preparations for investments for developing resources, for plant construction and for marketing of renewable energy products;
- To define the economic framework conditions and identify barriers of various kinds and market obstacles to implementation of said project under conditions for private enterprises.
Description:
The proposed object will combine a) Finding new efficient use of the energy in black liquor from pulp mills by high pressure, oxygen blown black liquor gasification and methanol/dimethyl-ether (DME) synthesis production as renewable CO2 neutral fuels for automotive uses, and b) Identifying and clearing of market hinders (e.g. technical, environmental, legal and economical) for a successful market introduction of methanol/DME as renewable transport fuels.
The project comprises six main phases: - Phase 1. Project definition for technology selection (gas cleaning and methanol/DME synthesis) and engineering design information. Process plant units will be specified and battery limits be identified. The acquired engineering design information will form the basis for phase 3 of engineering and cost estimation. - Phase 2. Overview of product market situation, competitive economic strategy to implementation. Market is analysed and hinders identified for a market introduction of renewable transport fuels. - Phase 3. Engineering design work on process units with conceptual and basic plant design establishing battery limit specifications and cost data. The engineering design information from phase 1 will be basis for preliminary engineering of the process plant with attention to process integration and mill interface. - Phase 4. Necessary conditions for implementation of a system using motor alcohols/ethers are identified. Potential stakeholder group is formed. Strategic economic solutions will be sought to the technical, environmental, organisational, legal and economical barriers. - Phase 5. Investment estimation with capital investment cost and operating costs for the plant financial modelling. Economic modelling will be made with a sensitivity analysis. - Phase 6. Dissemination of project results, with reporting and attending conferences and evaluation discussions on further continuation.
- The proposed project aim to facilitate the erection of black liquor gasification integrated methanol/DME synthesis plant (through stakeholder groups etc). The main benefits would be the replacement of fossil energy carriers presently used by bio-based motor fuels;
- The expected direct outcome will be project feasibility to commercialise the technology, with project report, interim report and one final report. During the dissemination phase, at least two articles will be written and published. The results will further be spread into each participant's organisation. Identification of technical, legal, environmental, and economical barriers with recommended solutions stipulating the necessary criteria for market introduction of CO2 neutral renewable transport fuels;
- The end result in this project would be a detailed planning document for the implementation of black liquor gasification integrated with motor fuel production at a Swedish pulp mill, identifying the major barriers for a market introduction, accompanied by recommended solutions. This will benefit the participating pulp mill company in the short term for strategic decisions, as well as the industry as a whole.
