Abstract: Power to gas (PTG) refers to the technology of converting power into energy-storage gas,
which can absorb excess power when there is excess power and release energy-storage gas when
needed. Based on the carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emission of Karamay City in Northwest China, this study
designed a process flow of the CO2 absorption process, and the hydrogen and CO2 methanation
process, in PTG technology. The results show that the efficiency of the CO2 absorption process was
91.5%, and the methanation efficiency was 77.5%. The heat recovery module was set during the
process, and the total heat recovered was 17.85 MW. The cost of producing synthetic natural gas
(SNG) in the PTG factory was 1782 USD/ton. In terms of cost, the cost of hydrogen production
from electrolyzed water accounted for the largest proportion. In terms of product profit, the sale
of pure oxygen was the largest part of the profit. At present, the carbon emission reduction index
profit brought by SNG production accounted for a small proportion. In the future, with technological
progress, industrial upgrading and the improvement in the carbon trading market, PTG technology
is expected to become one of the ways to achieve carbon-emission-reduction targets.
technology is called PTG. At present, relevant PTG projects have been established in
many parts of the world to carry out miniaturization experiments and commercialization
attempts [9]. The first PTG project in the world is Ameland in the Netherlands. The project
uses a proton exchange membrane electrolyzer (PEM) to produce hydrogen, which is
mixed into the natural-gas pipe network and supplied to 14 families in apartments. The
operation of the project has no safety problems currently [10]. Project Hybridge is one of
the largest PTG projects in Europe. It is planned that it will design 100-MW electrolytic cells
to produce hydrogen before 2030. The hydrogen will be used for transportation, mixing
into the natural-gas pipeline network and conversion to methane [11]. At present, the
largest PTG project in operation is located in the Audi e-gas plant in Werlte, Germany.
The total capacity of its three electrolytic cells is 6.3 MW. Wind energy is used to provide
power, and the generated hydrogen is converted into methane and injected into the gas
network [12]. In general, based on literature research, there are nearly 130 PTG projects in
the world, involving 26 countries or regions [9]. However, it should be pointed out that
current projects often choose to provide surplus power in areas rich in renewable resources,
rely on existing thermal power plants, or choose to obtain convenient raw materials in
heavy industrial areas. Therefore, the choice of location is particularly important. Different
resources exist in different regions; there are different bank discount rates, labor, land-use
costs and product prices, leading to different project operation costs in different regions.
These reasons also led to the emergence of this work.
Another important factor is based on energy-storage considerations. In recent years,
renewable energy has received strong support from many countries, developed rapidly
and steadily increased its market share [13]. However, the research shows that, with the
increase in renewable installed capacity, the demand for power-system flexibility is also
increasing [14]. Energy storage is one of the important options to improve the flexibility of
power systems [15]. At present, the most widely used energy-storage technology is pumped
storage, but its disadvantage is also very obvious: that is, specific locations such as steep
slopes and nearby lakes are needed to meet the needs of system operation [16]. However,
it is worth noting that PTG technology is expected to become a solution for large-scale
energy-storage technology, which converts electric energy into hydrogen or methane [17].
At the same time, due to the construction of the “West-to-East gas transmission” project, the
region has more natural-gas infrastructure, including pipelines and storage tanks. These
can significantly improve energy-storage capacity and utilization capacity.
The focus of this study is to simulate the establishment of a PTG plant based on
the distribution of renewable resources in Northwest China, CO2 emissions of industrial
enterprises in this region, local prices and labor costs, and explore the utilization of renew-
able resources and the CO2 conversion path in this region. The schematic diagram of the
plant is shown in Figure 1. The plant is composed of renewable-energy power generation,
electrolytic-cell hydrogen production, the CO2 absorption process and the CO2 methanation
process. The ratio of the CO2 absorption solution was 10 wt% MDEA + 30 wt% PZ, to save the
energy in the absorption process to the greatest extent. The heat of the absorption process
and methanation process was coupled to recover 17.85 MW of heat. Through the CO2
flow, the H2 flow was determined, and then the electrolytic cell capacity and renewable
power generation capacity were determined. The economy of the PTG plant was evaluated.
Combined with the corresponding carbon tax policy, the results show that the SNG cost
generated by PTG at this stage was 1782 USD/ton. The cost sensitivity analysis shows that
the cost of an electrolytic cell accounted for the largest proportion. In the future, with the
progress of technology and the improvement in electrolytic efficiency, this technology is
expected to run on a large scale, which is one of the technical paths towards decarbonization
in the future.

solvent entering the heat exchanger (LNG-102). This design refers to the practice of Le
Moullec et al. [22]. Based on the heat-pump effect, the heat quality of the supply system
is improved.

wasted and will be used in the CO2 -capture process or sold to the public sector for use (if
any). The molar flow ratio of feed ports S1 (CO2 ) and S3 (H2 ) is 1:4. The reason for setting
this ratio is available in a previous study [24]. The synthesized methane gas contains a lot
of water, which must be removed in the use stage. Therefore, a condensation module (B19)
is set to separate the water. Finally, further dehydrogenation (B24) and pressurization are
required to produce SNG that meets the existing natural-gas pipeline standards.
However, due to low conversion rate and high energy consumption, the biggest prob-
lem of electrolytic hydrogen production is low economic competitiveness. However, with
the goal of energy decarbonization and the approaching pressure of carbon neutralization,
coupling this technology with existing old power plants, photovoltaic power plants and
wind power plants; using excess power to produce hydrogen; and storing it as energy-
storage gas seems to be a scheme that can improve economic competitiveness and be
implemented commercially.
AWE was first proposed by Troostwijk and Diemann in 1789 [28]. The electrolysis pro-
cess is shown in Figure 4. The alkaline solution (KOH/NaOH) near the cathode is reduced

to one hydrogen molecule (H2 ) and two hydroxyl ions (OH− ) are generated. Hydrogen
molecules escape from the cathode surface. Under the influence of current, hydroxyl groups
are transferred to the anode through the middle diaphragm, where they are converted
into 1/2 oxygen molecules (O2 ) and one water molecule (H2 O). Finally, oxygen molecules
escape from the anode surface. The working temperature of the electrolytic is 40–90 °C
and the service life can reach 30 years. Moreover, with the progress of technology, the
response time of electrolytic has also gradually shortened. A study in 2014 showed that
the restart time after shutdown was shortened to 15 min, which can adapt to fluctuating
renewable power [29]. However, some studies have shown that the scheduling model is
very important for the flexible operation of an electrolytic [30]. Generally speaking, an
alkaline electrolyzer is the most mature, stable and cheap commercial cell because of its
early development. Therefore, AWE was selected for hydrogen-production facilities.
3. Results
This section mainly analyzes the CO2 capture process, methanation process, hydrogen
production from AWE, and energy consumption designed above. For the CO2 capture pro-
cess, the energy consumption of different absorbents was analyzed and the CO2 absorption
efficiency was calculated. For the methanation process, the flow data of each reaction stage
are given as Supplementary Materials, and the final methanation efficiency was calculated.
Through the hydrogen flow rate at the feed inlet of the methanation process, an AWE group
was constructed to stably produce hydrogen.
Through the whole carbon-capture process, the captured gas was obtained, and the
components are shown in Table 3.

Then, the required electrolytic capacity was obtained. It was specified that the elec-
trolytic works with customized hydrogen power. Through calculation, the electrolytic
capacity is 158 MW, that is, 29 alkaline electrolytics. Considering the start-up, shutdown,
maintenance, and other operations of the electrolytic, the capacity of the electrolytic was
expanded by 10% to ensure stable output. Then, 174 MW capacity was required, that is,
32 sets of the equipment are required.
In conclusion, based on the industrial tail gas emission of Karamay City, the scale of
the carbon capture process, methanation process and hydrogen production from electrolytic
water were designed. Table 9 is a summary of these works. The table shows the materials,
output, and other information required by the PTG plant.

4. Discussion
This section mainly analyzes the economy and technology of the PTG plant. The energy
consumption of the plant was analyzed, and the heat circulation module was added to make
better use of heat. Based on the current market levels, current policies, and bank discount
rates, the prices of land, equipment, labor, raw materials, and products were fully considered,
and the economic feasibility of establishing PTG factory was explored at this stage.
this part of heat can be sent to the distillation tower of the CO2 process. This part of the
heat was 5.16 MW, which can effectively compensate for the heat demand of the process.
At the same time, it should be pointed out that the adiabatic reactor in the methanation
stage is equipped with a cooling module. This high-temperature steam can be sent to the
steam turbine to generate electricity, to be used for the consumption of compressors and
pumps. The turbine heat rate [34] was 8063.6 kJ/kWh. The total molar enthalpy of cooling
modules (S14, S17, S21, S27) per unit time was 196075.147 MJ, so the power generated by the
steam turbine can fully meet the power required by the carbon-capture and methanation
equipment, with reference to Tables 4 and 6.
Among them, P1 is the total investment in fixed assets; P2 is the investment in equip-
ment, taken to be 1.2; Ri is the cost coefficient of each part; and N is the comprehensive
coefficient. Table 10 shows the cost coefficients of each part. The operating period is
assumed to be 20 years and the residual value is assumed to be 0. The total project cost
C is defined as Equation (9) [35], where Ci is the cost of each part; see Table 11 for details.
Methane and pure oxygen can be sold, and carbon-emission reductions can be sold through

the carbon trading market. The price is based on the national carbon trading price on
4 June 2021 [36], and the labor cost refers to the per capita disposable income of the city.

Regarding the cost of the alkaline electrolyzer, with the maturity of large-scale com-
mercial technology and sufficient market competition, the equipment investment price
will continue to decline. The investment cost of the alkaline electrolyzer selected in this
study is 314 USD/kW [38]. Then, the calculation method of hydrogen production costs
from electrolytic water is shown in (10).
where S is hydrogen production cost, S1 is the investment cost for the electrolytic, S2 and S3
are the renewal and maintenance costs of electrolytic; these costs are 40% and 5%. C is the
annual output of hydrogen, and Y is the operation cycle of the unit, which is 20 years. SE is
the power cost of the electrolytic, and B is the power required to produce 1kg of hydrogen.
After calculation, the hydrogen cost of electrolytic water was 4.66 USD/kg.
According to Formulas (8) and (9), Tables 8 and 9, the cost required for each ton of
natural gas produced by the PTG plant can be calculated, as shown in Figure 7.
Sustainability 2022, 14, 5929 12 of 15
The cost of producing SNG in the PTG plant is 1782 USD/ton, which is also shown in
Guilera. et al. [39], and Chauvy et al. [3], within the cost range assessed. Compared with
the traditional LNG price [40] of 607.7 USD/ton, the SNG produced by the PTG plant is
three times the traditional price. However, it is worth noting that, from Figure 7, it can be
seen that the high cost of hydrogen production increases the cost of SNG. Product pure
oxygen and methanation product SNG can be sold to improve system revenue. It is worth
noting that China launched the carbon trading market in 2017, so the CO2 used in the
methanation stage can be sold as a carbon reduction quota, but the profit proportion is not
high at this stage.
In order to further investigate the economy of the PTG plant, the sensitivity analysis of
a large part of the cost was carried out. This included electrolytic electricity price, oxygen
price, carbon trading price, etc., as shown in Figure 8.
Through sensitivity analysis, it can be seen that the change in electrolytic cell power
consumption in the hydrogen production stage has the greatest impact on SNG cost. In the
future, through technological progress, the improvement of electrolytic cell efficiency and
the decrease in power consumption, the production cost of SNG can be reduced. Changes in
oxygen sales profits and carbon trading prices can also have a certain impact on SNG costs.
5. Conclusions
The current work evaluates the technical route of setting up a PTG plant to produce
SNG with CO2 . Based on Karamay industrial tail gas emissions, the carbon capture process
and methanation process were designed using Aspen Hysys™ V.12 software and Aspen
Plus™ V.12 software. The heat flow in the process was recycled to ensure the balance of
quality and energy. The alkaline electrolyzer module was designed to supply hydrogen
stably. The results show that the PTG plant can produce 3.326 tons of natural gas per hour
and consume 8.899 tons of CO2 at the same time. The final carbon capture efficiency was
91.5%, and the methanation efficiency was 77.5%. The price of one ton of SNG produced
by the PTG plant was USD 1782, which is three times the price of traditional natural
gas. At present, it is not economically competitive. According to the cost analysis, the
cost of hydrogen accounted for the largest proportion, which is due to the high-power
consumption of electrolytic hydrogen production. However, it is worth noting that the
implementation of large-scale commercial electrolysis cases in the future will gradually
reduce the electrolysis cost, and then reduce SNG production costs. With the continuous
improvement of the national carbon trading market, the carbon price is expected to rise in
the future, which can also bring objective benefits to the PTG plant.
It should be pointed out that, although this study gives a economic and technological
construction scheme of a PTG plant in Karamay, it is based on the flue gas produced by
industrial enterprises. In future research, more flexible schemes can be designed. For
example, matching the thermal power plant, using the surplus power of the thermal power
plant to produce hydrogen by electrolysis, and then converting it into methane as energy-
storage gas, which is expected to greatly reduce the cost. In a previous study, Momeni and
others chose a 500 MW gas-fired power plant, which can produce 579.8 ktons of methane
per year by recovering tail gas and excess power, reducing the carbon emission of the
power plant by 66%. In addition, it can also be combined with power-grid energy storage
and peak shaving. Electricity is provided through renewable energy, hydrogen is produced
by electrolysis, and then converted into methane with the captured CO2 , which is used as
energy-storage gas to regulate the grid load. However, with technological progress, PTG
technology is expected to be implemented on a large scale, and is one of the technologies to
achieve carbon neutrality in the future.
