Feedstock Options
Main issues associated with accessing attractive CO economics are:
High energy costs. Investment in lower capital Nat Gas/Fuel Oil based
Syngas plants (eg SMR/POX) have higher variable costs
Investment in Coal/Petcoke based Syngas plants (Gasification) delivers
much lower energy / variable cost but carries a much higher capital
cost burden and is dependent on scale and integration opportunity
