CHE.20
Project Description:
The goal is to convert woody biomass from paper mill waste into biomethanol. Biomethanol can be used in a similar way as natural gas, by burning it to create electricity. Biomethanol has a lower carbon output than typical fossil fuels which in turn makes it a viable fuel source. By converting 1000 tons of biomass into biomethanol, we will determine the volume and energy this process can produce.
