    IMAP Methanol+™

    IMAP Methanol+™

    Checkmark

    Self-sufficiency in steam and power

    Checkmark

    Low maintenance

    Checkmark

    Achieve ammonia production range of 25-35%

     

     

    Let your methanol plant profit from serving ammonia on the side

    It features a streamlined layout with no shift or CO2 removal unit to minimize investment costs while still enabling co-production of ammonia and methanol. The methanol synthesis process is once-through at high pressure. The ammonia capacity depends on your feedstock composition, and minor capacity adjustments can be made by adding a CO2 PSA unit for CO2 removal.

    Our IMAP Methanol+™ process design is intended for use where methanol is the main product, ammonia is the co-product, and no need to produce urea is expected. Ammonia production capacity ranges from 25 to 35 percent.


     

     

    Benefits

    • Self-sufficient in steam and power

    • Low specific energy consumption (SEC)

    • No need to invest in Air Separation Unit or CO2 removal unit

    • Less maintenance thanks to fewer rotating parts

    • No CO2 removal means savings on chemicals

    • No HTS or LTS CO conversion means savings on catalyst

    • Higher on-stream factor
