Dimethyl Ether | Methanol synthesis

Our methanol process is individually tailored to our customer needs based on capacity and feedstock requirements. Our highly optimized process employing our highly-active MK-151 FENCE catalyst allows our plants to operate at higher throughput and lower energy consumption per ton of produced methanol. This ensures a reliable supply of energy efficient, quality methanol which can be used for any of our formaldehyde-related processes.
