Key Points

  • The aim is to provide a dataset for assessing the economic feasibility of methanol-to-jet fuel production.
  • Used a Monte Carlo sampling approach for dataset generation.
  • Employed Aspen Plus V14 for steady-state process modeling.
  • Conducted evaluations with Python (Version 3.11) to process economic data.
  • Generated three million data points by varying input parameters.
  • Calculated net production cost for synthetic jet fuel as a performance indicator.
  • Intended to enhance transparency and support further uncertainty analysis.

Abstract

This article presents a dataset generated for a techno-economic assessment (TEA) of the methanol-to-jet (MtJ) fuel production pathway. The dataset was produced using a large-scale Monte Carlo (MC) sampling approach applied to a steady-state process model implemented in Aspen Plus V14. The techno-economic evaluation was conducted using an external cost model, with subsequent data processing performed in Python (Version 3.11). In total, three million individual data points were generated by varying key technical and economic input parameters within predefined ranges and are under public access. For each MC sample, the net production cost on a mass basis (NPCm, EUR kgjet-fuel−1) of synthetic jet fuel was calculated as the primary economic performance indicator. The dataset comprises both the sampled input parameters and the corresponding techno-economic output variables and is intended to support transparency, reproducibility, and further uncertainty analysis of MtJ fuel production pathways.
