Process Simulation and Economics
All process modeling was performed in SuperPro Designer® version 10 build 7 (Intelligen, Inc.), and additional calculations were performed in Microsoft Excel. The process models are publicly available at http://mcdonald-nandi.ech.ucdavis.edu/tools/techno-economics/. A free trial version of SuperPro Designer® (http://www.intelligen.com/demo.html) can be used to view the model. Process simulation operating expenditure (OPEX) and capital expenditure (CAPEX) assumptions such as startup costs, labor pay rates, and utility rates are listed in Table S2 of Supplementary Information.
