Methanol manufacturers and their scale
Thread Content
I remember in the 1990s, for a project that required hundreds of tons of methanol as raw material, I had to make phone calls or travel by train. These days, there are frequent reports of new methanol manufacturers/plants either being built or put into operation. That expert has fairly comprehensive statistics on methanol; I would be grateful if you could share your insights. It would be best to have the production rates and sales (for own use) for each company. Some older units (around 50,000 tons) need not be included. If it’s not suitable to be shared on the forum, you can post a thread or send a short message
