USED 500 METRIC TONS PER DAY METHANOL SYNTHESIS UNIT COMMISSIONED CIRCA 1990 AND SHUT DOWN IN 2014 DUE TO LACK OF FEEDSTOCK. DURING LATE 2000's THE PLANT UNDERWENT SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATION WITH THE ADDITION OF AN AUTOTHERMAL REFORMING SYSTEM, CO2 RECOVERY UNITS, METHYLAL AND DME UNITS AS WELL AS MAJOR EQUIPMENT AND ENGINEERING EXPANSIONS TO LATER INCREASE METHANOL SYNTHESIS CAPACITY TO 750 METRIC TONS PER DAY. PLANT INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING UNITS: - FOSTER WHEELER STEAM METHANE REFORMING UNIT CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ENOUGH SYNGAS FOR 200 METRIC TONS PER DAY OF METHANOL PRODUCTION. - DAVY STEAM METHANE REFORMING UNIT CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ENOUGH SYNGAS FOR 300 METRIC TONS PER DAY OF METHANOL PRODUCTION. - AUTO THERMAL REFORMING UNIT CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ENOUGH SYNGAS 250 METRIC TONS PER DAY OF METHANOL PRODUCTION. - CO2 RECOVER UNIT WITH 90 METRIC TONS PER DAY FOR RECYCLING BACK TO THE REFORMER FEED TO PRODUCE STOICHIOMETIRC SYNGAS. - HIGH THERMAL EFFICIENCY METHANOL DISTILLATION UNIT WITH (3) COLUMN SYSTEM CAPABLE OF DISTILLING 800 METRIC TONS PER DAY OF METHANOL. IT USES ONLY 1.1 METRIC TON OF STEAM PER METRIC TON OF METHANOL DISTILLED. - PLANT IS KEPT UNDER NITROGEN PURGE.
