  We make methanol from synthesis gas which is produced from natural gas. We product 360,000 tons methanol every year. Methanol is also commonly called wood alcohol or methyl alcohol.

  Methanol is a chemical building block used to produce formaldehyde, acetic acid and a variety of other chemical intermediates. Methanol is also used to make MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether), an oxygenate used in cleaner burning gasoline.
