- methanol from methane?
-
Technical nonsense. Methanol is a partially burned methane, using a catalyst doesn't change that.
This is only feasable if the energy liberated by the partial burning of methane to methanol is captured and used.
Fuel mileage of methanol is much lower than gasoline.
Straight methane as an internal combustion engine fuel is quite good, why would anyone mess with it and partly burn it first just to make methanol. Methane can be compressed enough to get acceptable mileage per fillup. - Posted by: gertruded Posted on: 10/23/09 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use

Methanol has less BTUs per gallon than gas or diesel.

But not easily trappable.
