Sinotec | Methanol

While methanol is occasionally found in natural occurrences such as geothermal springs, it typically deviates from its industrial synthesis and biological formation.

Advancements in Methanol production technology are central to this evolution. The integration of isothermal reaction technology optimizes conditions for higher methanol yields, while medium and low-pressure synthesis loops minimize energy consumption without compromising purity standards. These innovations ensure efficient, high-quality methanol output suitable for diverse applications, from fuel to chemical manufacturing.

Utilization of Methanol

Notably, methanol serves as a vital chemical feedstock in various industries, including the production of formaldehyde and acetic acid. Additionally, methanol is used as an alternative fuel source, either directly or through its conversion to dimethyl ether (DME), highlighting its versatility and importance in modern industrial applications.

As a fundamental component for many downstream chemicals, sustainably produced methanol promotes the growth of the green chemicals sector. Additionally, it serves as an alternative drop-in fuel in shipping, road transport, and power generation, contributing to lower overall emissions and environmental impact.

The use of renewable feedstocks in methanol production significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions and supports the energy transition in various markets. Methanol's clean-burning and biodegradable properties make it an appealing alternative fuel for vehicles, ships, cooking, and home heating.

our Products

Acetyls

Being formed of a part of a molecule (as opposed to the molecule itself), acetyls constitute a group of interesting petrochemical products.

Ammonia

Ammonia sulphate is the main component of the products used by the agricultural sector, such as fertilisers.

Aromatics

Aromatics consist of purified terephthalic acid (PTA), Paraxylene (PX) and Metaxylene (MX). They constitute parts of products, such as soft drink bottles, packaging trays, but also clothing items and carpets.

Base Chemicals

Base chemicals are a broad group of several petrochemical products. The most well-known are toluene, ethylene, benzene, propylene, butadiene and butylenes. They are the base for other products such as polyethylene and ethanol.

Caustic soda

This well-known industrial chemical can be found in pulp, paper, detergents, packaging, and textiles and is used in the agriculture industry, environmental protection sector, water treatment, healthcare, chemical industry, construction and automotive industry.

Chlorine

Chlorine’s main use is the purification of drinking water. It can also be used to produce pharmaceuticals, in metallurgy, electronics and food industries. All of these sectors use chemical products such as hydrochloric acid which contains chlorine.

Oxides

Oxides consist of such substances as ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and their derivatives. They are supplemented by acetate esters, norbornenes, and oxo-alcohols. Oxides play a crucial role in our everyday life. They are used in the production of polyesters, paints and coatings, antifreeze and industrial coolants as well as aircraft deicing.

Oligomers

These substances are very popular in industries producing tyres, drilling fluids, speciality acids and chemicals, plastic additives, lubricant additives, agricultural chemicals, and even fragrances and cosmetics detergents.

Nitriles

Phenol

Phenol has a variety of applications in many industries. Some of the most important are the electrical/electronics market, automotive market, construction industry, household and furniture industry.

Pigments

Pigments widely used in various industries are titanium dioxide and titanium chemical products. They are used to produce many household objects such as, for instance, PVC windows, and powder-coated doors.

Solvents

Substances used in dissolving solids and keeping them in a liquid state are solvents. They can be found in day-to-day objects, such as cosmetics, adhesives, or ink.

PIA, TMA, MAN

Chemical products, such as PIA (purified isophthalic acid), TMA (trimellitic anhydride) and MAN (Maleic Anhydride) have many various applications. Some of them you can find listed below.

Styrenics

The Styrenics group consists of styrene monomer, polystyrene, ABS and styrenic specialities.
