Abstract
An eFuels plant and process for producing synthetic hydrocarbons using renewable energy are disclosed. The eFuels plant comprises a hydrocarbon synthesis (HS) system and a renewable feed and carbon/energy recovery (RFCER) system. The RFCER comprises an electrolysis unit to convert water to hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen and carbon dioxide are fed to the HS system to produce synthetic hydrocarbon products. The process further comprises a thermal desalination unit, a direct air capture unit, an oxygen-fired heater, a steam turbine generator, a heat recovery unit, anaerobic and/or aerobic wastewater treatment, or a combination thereof. Process streams of and heat generated in the HS and RFCER systems are integrated to improve energy, hydrogen, and carbon efficiency and maintain stable operations during power fluctuations to the eFuels plant.
