Methanol offers many benefits as an alternative energy source and is of use in a multitude of applications, therefore, optimizing and enhancing its production by modeling its reaction kinetics could be of considerable importance. Due to the disagreement on the methanol synthesis reaction scheme, there is always a scope to develop new and effective kinetic models which can prove to be useful in the improvement of the process resulting in high methanol yields and greater profits. The main purpose of this study was to investigate kinetic models proposed in the literature for methanol synthesis...
