Title:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FUEL FOR INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/110339
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
The method according to the invention for producing a fuel (14, 15, 16) for internal combustion engines comprises the following steps: a) providing carbon dioxide (C02) (6); b) providing hydrogen (H2) (11) from water (H20) (9); and c) synthesizing methanol (CH3OH) (12) from the provided carbon dioxide (6) and hydrogen (11). The method according to the invention is characterized in that the carbon dioxide (6) provided in step a) is provided from the flue gas (4) of the combustion of a fuel (2). A further method step d) of a process (13, 17) for converting the methanol (12) into a fuel (14, 15, 16, 18) is preferably carried out subsequent to step c); particularly preferably said process is a methanol-to-gasoline (MTG) process (13). The method according to the invention advantageously permits the reprocessing of carbon dioxide (6) from the flue gas (4) from power plants (1) and the use thereof for synthesizing fuels (14, 15, 16), in particular gasoline fuel (14), for operating internal combustion engines, such as Otto engines in automobiles. The method according to the invention can thus be particularly advantageously used for processing the flue gases (4) of power plants (1) from fossil fuels (2), which occur in great volumes. Alternatively, the methanol (12) can also be converted to dimethylether (18) as diesel fuel.
