Blue Methanol

Renewable methanol is produced by converting biomass or using renewable electricity to synthesize hydrogen through water electrolysis, which is then combined with CO2 captured from the atmosphere or industrial processes. This methanol can be used as a fuel in internal combustion engines, as a feedstock for chemical production, or blended with gasoline. For example, it can power cars, ships, and be used in fuel cells.

Bio-Methanol

Bio-methanol is produced from biomass through processes like gasification or anaerobic digestion, where organic materials are converted into syngas and then into methanol. This renewable fuel can be used in transportation, as a chemical feedstock, or blended with gasoline. For example, it can power cars, serve as a shipping fuel, or be utilized in the production of plastics. Bio-methanol is considered a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

E-Methanol

E-methanol is produced by combining hydrogen, generated through renewable energy sources (like wind or solar), with carbon dioxide captured from the atmosphere or industrial processes. This process creates a sustainable fuel that can be used in transportation, as a chemical feedstock, or for energy storage. For example, e-methanol can power fuel cell vehicles, serve as a shipping fuel, or be converted into other chemicals. It offers a carbon-neutral alternative to traditional fossil fuels, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
