ProMet
CO2 to Propylene via eMethanol
Summary
The ProMet project aims at the development of a direct synthesis route of methanol from CO2 by electrolysis. In the methanol-to-propylene process, methanol is the raw material for the production of propylene, an important basic chemical with an annual worldwide production of 100 million tons. Using electricity from renewable sources for the electrochemical conversion of CO2 allows for a more sustainable production of both methanol and propylene.
