The invention relates to a method of making methanol. The method comprises the steps of providing a wall (1) formed by a rotor blade (5) of a wind power plant (6), the wall (1) having a surface (2) on which a carbonic anhydrase (3) is immobilized, exposing the surface (29) of the wall (1) to a stream of gas and using the carbonic anhydrase (3) to remove carbon dioxide from the stream of gas. The carbon dioxide so obtained is then used to produce methanol in a fuel cell, in a chemical reaction where electrical energy is used to transform water and carbon dioxide to methanol. The invention also relates to an arrangement for making methanol.

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication de méthanol. Ce procédé consiste à prendre une paroi (1) formée par une aube de rotor (5) d'éolienne (6), cette paroi (1) possédant une surface (2) sur laquelle une anhydrase carbonique (3) est immobilisée, exposant cette surface (2) de la paroi (1) à un flux de gaz et utilisant l'anhydrase carbonique (3) pour retirer le dioxyde de carbone du flux de gaz. Ce dioxyde de carbone ainsi obtenu est ensuite utilisé pour produire du méthanol dans une pile à combustible, dans une réaction chimique dans laquelle l'énergie électrique est utilisée pour transformer l'eau et le dioxyde de carbone en méthanol. Cette invention concerne aussi un agencement permettant de fabriquer du méthanol.
