Summary
The ResMe2E project aims to revolutionize small-scale green energy production by developing systems for generating green methanol from biogenic residues and converting this synthetic fuel into electricity using a highly efficient Brayton cycle. This approach challenges existing solutions by significantly enhancing the efficiency of renewable distributed energy and renewable fuel production. At its core, the project innovates in biomass waste gasification by combining oxygen gasification with plasma steam. This method lays the groundwork for more efficient green methanol production, a pivotal component in the project's vision. A key aspect involves developing technologies for purifying syngas, ensuring higher quality fuel production. The project also aims to break new ground in electricity generation, employing an air Brayton cycle with heat regeneration and the MILD combustion method, which is expected to surpass the efficiency of classical systems. These efforts converge to achieve an efficiency level twice that of commonly used small-scale ORC systems, marking a significant leap forward in sustainable energy technology. The project integrates various scientific disciplines, employing both experimental and computational methods. It will tackle challenges like optimizing particle separators, developing effective combustion methods, and designing thermally efficient high-temperature heat exchangers. The project's innovative approach also involves studying the interactions between different types of waste and their processing, potentially creating new branches in thermal and plasma chemistry. ResMe2E's interdisciplinary nature and comprehensive analysis, from microscale effects in dust separation to system-wide analyses, position it at the forefront of renewable energy research. The project aligns with the EU's sustainable energy goals by promoting energy independence and ecological forms of energy, contributing to the EU's aims for sustainable development.
