In March 2021, Celanese Corporation announced that it will expand its capacity and its Clear Lake, Texas integrated chemical manufacturing facility will begin utilizing recycled carbon dioxide (CO2) as an alternative feedstock in the production of methanol.
Based on Feedstock
Coal
Natural Gas
Others
By feedstock, the coal segment accounted for the fastest-growing of the methanol market during 2023 to 2028
The coal segment, by feedstock, market accounts for the fastest growth. Many countries are shifting towards coal feedstock due to high prices and limited reserves of natural gas in certain areas. For the manufacturing methanol from coal, it is mixed with air separator O2 and then put through coal gasification to create crude syngas. Methanol manufacturing using coal as a feedstock is a carbon-intensive process that can produce a lot of greenhouse gas emissions. Utilizing cleaner and more environmentally friendly feedstocks for the manufacturing of methanol has received increased attention in recent years in an effort to reduce environmental impact.
