Process technology for making chemicals from coal

| By Chemical Engineering

The MegaMethanol and MTP (methanol-to-propylene) concepts open new routes for coal monetization, and SNG (substitute natural gas) is a possible way to convert coal into a transportable fuel — methane. SNG can be used either for power generation or routed to pipelines as an admixture to natural gas. This company is also active in the field of synthesis gas (syngas), hydrogen generation and clean conversion technologies for the production of motor fuels and chemicals. The firm is a leading technology company operating worldwide in the fields of process engineering and plant contracting. Its technology is based on proprietary and exclusively licensed technologies in the areas of gas-to-petrochemicals products via syngas or methanol or synthetic fuels, petrochemicals, petroleum-refining technology, polymers, as well as renewable resources and food.
