Table 5.

Energy analysis and economical assessment for NaOH-CH4.

NaOH-CH4
Electrical energy
Electrical energy increase (kWh/t TS)a 221.9
Mixing pretreatment tank (kWh/t TS) 10.5
Net electrical energy (kWh/t TS) 211.4
Economic assessment
NaOH cost (€/t TS) 82.4
Extra net gain (€/t TS), 52.85

a Electrical energy gain corresponds to the difference of electricity energies produced by NaOH-CH4 process minus the CH4 of GL.
