Can the boiler be ignited with methanol?

Thread Content

Dear experts: Our company produces methanol, gas and pulverized coal boilers (lignite). It is planned to use methanol for ignition. Is it possible? Is there any unit that can provide methanol ignition guns? Thank you.

I have never heard of methanol being used for this purpose. Our factory produces methanol.

Yes, I haven't heard of it either. You can use gasoline or natural gas. Methanol has a relatively low calorific value. If you use it, you may need to store heat. In addition, the ignition gun also needs special treatment.
