What's the difference?
http://www.differencebetween.net/science/difference-between-ethanol-and-methanol/
The difference ultimately doesn't matter. The methanol is cheaper to produce and can be used in more markets than the ethanol. Both are classified as Chemicals, and Methanol like Ethanol can be considered a fuel.
Anonymous is correct that both chemicals can be fuels, especially while alternatives of oil are uppermost.
We don't even doubt the possibility that ethanol was produced last week, but it appears that the company is not ready to make that claim.
The third quarter ends with September, six weeks away, the period in which the company expects to be producing ethanol.
Methanol is one of the raw materials for making biodiesel.
We read that methanol has been the fuel for Indy racing machines for a while.
Also we read that the low cost source of methanol is from natural gas (T. Boone Pickens' favorite).
It appears that historic lab chemistry is rising to commercial use in many ways today and for the future.
Competition is keen among venture capitalists and investors. "The fittest will survive."
