Methanol, also known as wood alcohol, is a colorless, volatile liquid with a slightly sweet odor. It is produced from natural gas or biomass through a process of steam reforming and catalytic synthesis. Methanol is primarily used as a solvent, antifreeze, fuel, and as a feedstock for the production of formaldehyde and other chemicals. Its versatility makes it an essential component in various industrial applications.
