Methanol, which can be derived from sustainable energy sources such as biomass, solar power, and wind is widely considered an ideal hydrogen carrier for distributed mobile production. In this study, a comprehensive comparison of the thermodynamic techno-economic performance aqueous phase reforming (APR) steam (SR) methanol was conducted using Aspen Plus CAPCOST software to evaluate commercial feasibility APR process. Thermodynamic analysis, based on Gibbs free minimization method, reveals that while SR have similar demands, achieves higher efficiency by avoiding losses evaporation compression. typically operates at pressures lower temperatures compared SR, suppressing CO formation increasing fraction but reducing single-pass conversion. A production system with 50 kg/h output shows although requires fixed operating costs annual capital charges, it benefits variable costs. The minimum selling price calculated 7.07 USD/kg, 7.20 USD/kg SR. These results suggest more economically viable alternative

Hydrogen is a clean-burning fuel with water as its only by-product, yet widespread adoption hampered by logistical challenges. Liquid organic hydrogen carriers, such alcohols from sustainable sources, can be converted to through aqueous-phase reforming (APR), promising technology that bypasses the energy-intensive vaporization of feedstocks. However, hydrothermal conditions APR pose significant challenges catalyst stability, which crucial for industrial deployment. This review focuses on stability catalysts in APR, particularly sustaining production over extended durations or multiple reaction cycles. Additionally, we explore potential ultrasound-assisted where sonolysis enables without external heating. Although technological readiness -induced currently trails behind thermal development optimized ultrasound use may unlock new possibilities efficient alcohols.
