In coal operations, process chemistry plays a central role in efficiency, cost control, and emissions management. One of the most versatile and impactful chemicals used across coal-related processes is methanol.
Methanol serves several important functions within coal processing and power generation environments. It’s widely used in flue gas desulfurization systems, where it helps reduce sulfur emissions by aiding in the chemical transformation of harmful gases. In coal tar recovery, methanol functions as a solvent, improving the separation of valuable components. It also serves operational purposes such as equipment cleaning, deicing, and pipeline flushing, particularly in colder regions where freezing can shut down flow systems.
Methanol’s role extends even further in environmental controls. It can be injected into combustion zones or added to water treatment systems to assist with biological nutrient removal, helping facilities stay in compliance with air and water discharge regulations.
At Altiras Chemicals, we offer both prime and reclaimed methanol in bulk supply for coal processing. Our reclaimed methanol is especially attractive for facilities seeking to reduce costs without sacrificing performance. In many applications, our reclaimed product performs on par with virgin methanol—and it often comes at a significantly lower price point.
