• Widely used for heating and industrial steam, new-builds and replacing coal and HFO-fired units
• Capacity range from: 1 - 20 steam tons/hour
• Standards developed together with MI and Methanex support
• Blends starting as low as 60% (M60)
• More than 1,000 registered units consuming over 2M mtpa of methanol

• Various applications: o Single burner heatingo Stir fryingo Steaming
• Widely used in restaurants and central kitchens: o adoption mainly cost driven
• Simplified logistics, filling the deficit of NG pipeline/distribution capacity• Fuel:
o 100% methanol (M100) o 80% and higher blends (balance of fuel mix emulsified with water)
• Consuming over 3M mtpa of methanol

METHANOL AS MARINE FUEL
WWW.METHANOL.ORG
• Methanol can be a practical solution for dual fuel applications, to include other alternative fuels such as LPG and LNG
PRACTICAL SOLUTION
• Multi – fuel engines will be the norm going forward
• Methanol can be readily and safely applied in both new build and conversion

METHANOL / WATER BLENDING (EMULSIFICATION)
Source: MAN
• Approximately 25-40% water is added to the methanol to achieve a new, Tier III solution
• NOx decreases almost linearly with water content, to approximately 2 g/kWh at 50% and 75% load
• Similar system is being planned for fuel oil, so the Tier III complianttechnology will be available as a dual fuel solution
• R&D testing completed - service test is under preparation

• Methanex posts reference prices monthly in Asia and North America and quarterly in Europe
• Realized pricing is lower than reference prices due to discounts specified in contracts

SUMMARY
• Cost effective and “future proof” fuelwhich can be produced from a varietyof feedstocks – to include renewables
• One of the top 5 seaborne chemicalcommodities – safely handled for over50 years
• Capital costs for converting tomethanol are minimal – economicallyviable without subsidies
• Widely available and alleviates manyinfrastructure limitations both on landand at sea
