The application for the patent was published on June 26, 2026, under issue no. 26/2026.

Abstract: A method for revamping a methanol plant, wherein: the plant comprises a synthesis loop (100) with a first converter (1); a make-up gas (19) obtained from gasification of coal or reforming of a hydrocarbon is conditioned by adding hydrogen (21) to adjust the stoichiometric number of the gas; a second methanol converter (23) is installed in the synthesis loop; at least a portion of the fresh make-up gas added with hydrogen is sent to the first converter (1); a partially reacted gas (27) effluent from said first converter (1), optionally added with fresh make-up gas (29), forms a feed stream (10) which is sent to the second converter (23) via the recirculation compressor (6) of the synthesis loop.
