FIELD: industrial organic synthesis. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to improved process of producing methanol from purge gas produced in basic methanol or ammonia synthesis. Process comprises dispensing compressed carbon dioxide into basic synthesis purge gas, heating resultant gas mixture to starting synthesis temperature, passing thus heated gas through methanol synthesis catalyst, cooling reacted gas, recovering condensed crude methanol, and separating non-condensed gas stream into return stream and purge stream, the former being designed for mixing with basic synthesis purge gas stream and passed to one or two circulation jet compressors. Circulation is effected by energy provide either by (i) pressure of basic synthesis purge gas, which is supplied to jet compressor and further dispensed into compressed carbon dioxide stream, or by (ii) pressure of compressed carbon dioxide, which is dispensed into jet compressor and then introduced into basic synthesis purge gas stream, or by (iii) pressure of basic synthesis purge gas and pressure of indicated compressed carbon dioxide, both being supplied to one or two jet compressors. Ammonia or methanol production purge gas is successfully used for production of methanol without utilizing additional hydrogen-containing streams. ^ EFFECT: reduced methanol production cost. ^ 4 cl, 5 dwg, 1 tbl, 4 ex |
