Abstract
A simulation of direct dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis from syn-gas, produced via biomass gasification and catalytic reforming, has been processed on the assumption of both physical and thermodynamic equilibrium. Simulation showed that reaction temperature, pressure and syn-gas composition are have the most important effect on DME synthesis behavior. In which, low temperature and high pressure would be advantageous for DME production.
