Compared to fossil-fuel hydrogen, the MPW-hydrogen and MSW-hydrogen cases are predicted to exhibit lower supply chain energy requirements with reductions of 56% and 82%, respectively. The fossil-fuel hydrogen case considers natural gas as feedstock, and this feedstock energy increases the overall supply chain energy requirements for the
Energy efficiency: Biomass-to-methanol processes can be efficient, but they usually have a lower overall efficiency compared to hydrogen production due to the extra step of synthesis. Storage: Methanol is easier to store and transport due to its liquid state at room temperature.
Green methanol has the potential to meet the energy needs and challenges of China''s transportation, electrical, and heating systems. It produces carbon emissions that are only 20% of those from traditional energy sources, effectively addressing both oil scarcity and carbon neutrality. 4. Conclusions and prospects.
Depending on the gasification technology employed, significant quantities of water (H 2 O), CO 2, and methane (CH 4) can be present in the synthesis gas as well as several minor and trace components (Higman and van der Burgt, 2003).Under the substoichiometric-reducing conditions of the gasifier, most of the fuel''s sulfur converts to

Currently, various products have been obtained by CO 2 R, in which methanol (CH 3 OH) is one of the promising products as it has a high energy density and is considered as a cost-effective energy storage material and H 2 carrier.
