Methanol Reformer delivers a system to Japan for the first time. The L18 reformer is set to produce hydrogen from methanol at Mitsubishi Gas Chemical's Niigata site starting in 2026. The project also serves to validate the technology according to Japanese standards.
Methanol Reformer delivers the first autonomous "power container" in Europe to the Spanish ferry operator Baleària. It is intended to first produce hydrogen and then electricity from e-methanol for an electric ferry.
Additives play a central role in the commercialization of renewable methanol as an alternative fuel. New developments improve ignition behavior, lubrication, and corrosion protection—making the fuel ready for use in shipping and heavy-duty transport.
In Kløfta, Norway, Methanol Reformer and DRIV Hydrogen have commissioned a unit for decentralized hydrogen production from bio-methanol. The modular plant supplies high-purity hydrogen around the clock for mobile and stationary applications.
Methanol is already one of the most important basic materials for the chemical industry and will become even more important in the coming decades – for plastics of all kinds as well as for the production of e‑fuels. For this, large quantities of green hydrogen and sustainably produced CO2 are required.
