Project objectives

The key objective of the MEMERE project is the design, scale-up and validation of a novel membrane reactor for the direct conversion of methane into ethylene with integrated air separation. The focus of the project will be on the air separation through novel MIEC membranes integrated within a reactor operated at high temperature for OCM allowing integration of different process steps in a single multifunctional unit and achieving significantly higher yields in comparison with the conventional reactor technologies, combined with improved energy efficiency.

Environmental LCA and economic assessment

Specific WP8 objectives include:

  • Assess the environmental and

cost performance of the developed novel OCM technology compared to conventional technologies

  • Guide the design and

development of the novel OCM technology towards more sustainable solutions

  • Define and evaluate

comprehensive business scenarios for the successful deployment and commercialisation of the developed OCM technology in Europe and possibly globally
