Bio Methanol
Bio methanol (also called renewable methanol) is chemically identical to conventional methanol. The main advantage of bio-methanol is the reduction of fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional methanol production, and the possibility to convert into bio-methanol (by gasification) a range of renewable feedstock.
