Each day methanol is used as a component in making literally hundreds of products. What many people don’t know is that methanol is an emerging energy fuel for vehicles and electric power turbines. Methanol can become a viable vehicle fuel because of its benefits:
- Cheaper to produce than other alternative fuels.
- Can help provide increased employment and energy security for America.
- Lower risk of flammability than gasoline.
Methanol is naturally available in the environment and breaks down quickly in both aerobic (with air) and anaerobic (without air) conditions. Methanol contains more hydrogen and less carbon than other liquid fuels.
Some common materials made from methanol include:
- Adhesives
- Pigments
- Solvents
- Plastics
- Paints
- Resins
- Carpet
- Insulation
- Windshield Washer Fluid
