INTRODUCTION 

PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT PERFORMANCE AND ECONOMICS REPORT

The purpose of the Project Performance and Economics Report for the “Commercial-Scale Demonstration of the Liquid Phase Methanol (LPMEOH™) Process” project is to consolidate for public use all relevant nonproprietary information on the project, other than that already included in the Public Design Report (Final Report – Volume 1).

The scope of the report is limited to nonproprietary information. Therefore, although its content is insufficient to provide a complete tool for designing a LPMEOH™ unit, it will serve as a reference for the design considerations involved in developing a commercial-scale facility.
