Methanol can be made directly upstream from natural gas and coal as a one-time energy source or from coal coke oven gas. Methanol is widely used in the downstream. There are nearly 30 primary processed products and hundreds of further processed products made from methanol, which is an important node in the coal chemical industry chain. Methanol can be used to produce basic chemical raw materials such as formaldehyde, dimethyl ether, acetic acid, etc. It is also an energy product that can be reacted with isobutylene MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) as an additive for high octane gasoline, or used directly as methanol fuel to provide clean power for cars.

Coal gasification to methanol projects are generally clustered in coal producing regions with the aim of more convenient use of upstream coal resources. According to statistics, the national methanol production capacity in 2021 is concentrated in Inner Mongolia, Shaanxi, Shandong and Shanxi, with the four provinces together accounting for 46.8% of the national capacity.
