Syngas Production from Coal (H2/CO Ratio of 1)
Syngas Operating Costs & Plant Construction Costs
This feasibility study approaches the construction of a plant producing Syngas (H2/CO ratio = 1) in China. The plant produces Syngas via a coal gasification process.
The report provides a comprehensive study of Syngas production and related Syngas production cost, covering three key aspects: a complete description of the Syngas production process examined; an in-depth analysis of the related Syngas plant capital cost (Capex); and an evaluation of the respective Syngas plant operating costs (Opex).
The Syngas production process description includes a block flow diagram (BFD), an overview of the industrial site installations, detailing both the process unit and the necessary infrastructure, process consumption figures and comprehensive process flow diagrams (PFD). The Syngas plant capital cost analysis breaks down the Capex by plant cost (i.e., ISBL, OSBL and Contingency); owner's cost; working capital; and costs incurred during industrial plant commissioning and start-up. The Syngas plant operating costs analysis covers operating expenses, including variable costs like raw materials and utilities, and fixed costs such as maintenance, labor, and depreciation.

Product
Synthesis Gas. Synthesis Gas (or syngas) is a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, used as a precursor for producing ammonia, methanol, and synthetic fuels. It serves as a foundation for many industrial chemical reactions, particularly in gas-to-liquid technologies. Syngas is produced through gasification or steam reforming of hydrocarbons and is stored as a gas. It plays a central role in Fischer-Tropsch processes, allowing the conversion of gas into liquid hydrocarbons for fuel and chemical production.
Raw Material
Coal. Coal is a fossil fuel primarily used for electricity generation and as a key raw material in steel production through coking processes. It is also employed in cement manufacturing and as a source of heat and energy in various industries. Extracted from underground mines or surface deposits, coal is processed into different grades based on its carbon content and calorific value, making it a vital component in energy security and industrial growth, particularly in regions with abundant reserves.
