Energy policies around the world are increasingly highlighting importance of hydrogen in evolving energy landscape. In this regard, use to produce biomethanol not only plays an essential role chemical industry but also holds great promise as alternative fuel for global shipping. This study evaluates a system generating and biomethane based on anaerobic digestion, biogas upgrading, methanol synthesis unit, high-temperature electrolysis. Thermal integration is implemented enhance efficiency by linking oxy-fuel gas turbine unit. The integrated performance evaluated through thermodynamic modeling, Aspen Plus V12.1 employed analysis. Our findings show that primary power consumers Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) Methanol Synthesis Unit (MSU), with SOEC consuming 824 kW MSU 129.5 power, corresponding production scale 23.2 kg/h 269.54 biomethanol, respectively. overall calculated at 58.09%, considering output 188 269 biomethanol. amount carbon dioxide emitted per biofuel equal 0.017, proposed can be considered low-carbon emission system. Key include significant enhancements capacity higher temperatures reactor.
