Conventional methanol

Demand for methanol is driving producers to seek the greater yields and economies of scale that only larger plants can provide. As a result, 10,000 MTPD methanol plant layouts will likely soon be the new industry benchmark for large-scale production.

Our methanol production plants combine advanced syngas generation and syngas-to-methanol processes with high-activity methanol production catalysts and comprehensive services. They are designed specifically to help you maximize yields and drive down costs.

All of our methanol processes are customized to meet the requirements of your individual methanol project.

Ideal for mega methanol plants, our SynCOR Methanol™ technology is the most cost-efficient methanol solution available anywhere.

SynCOR™ relies on our fully automated SynCOR™ syngas generator, which handles oxygen reforming at a uniquely low steam-to-carbon ratio.

Our one-step methanol process is intended for small to medium size plant capacities and/or feedstocks with a high CO₂ content. This plant layout relies exclusively on our side-fired reforming design for generating hydrogen-rich syngas.

With an optimal capacity range of 500–2,500 MTPD, our one-step methanol plants provide numerous benefits.
