How is methanol gasoline legal, is it legal to sell methanol gasoline

Methanol gasoline is flammable and explosive, first of all, its qualitative is to belong to the oil product, so after the establishment of the company, the first thing that needs to be handled is the hazardous chemicals business license, and then the retail business license of refined oil, the most important thing is the storage business license of oil products (this is particularly important), this storage business license is very important, because with this certificate companies and enterprises can set up factories and warehouses for storage.

At present, the country still does not have a clear development policy and documents for methanol gasoline, and the attitude of local governments across the country towards methanol gasoline is also inconsistent, so the national standard for methanol gasoline has not been determined, although the state encourages the development of new energy, but it is clearly stipulated that the first department does not participate in the investment and construction of new energy projects to prevent industry monopoly.

Later, in 08 years, Shanxi Province issued a series of local standards for methanol gasoline, "M15 vehicle methanol gasoline" guidelines, first in the province to promote methanol gasoline, a step in the history of methanol gasoline!

Documents for the sale of methanol gasoline.

At present, there are still many provincial and municipal application reports (company seals), the company's industrial and commercial business license annex, refined oil retail license annex, and hazardous chemicals business license annex. These applications need to be applied for through the methanol fuel center of the Provincial Safety Supervision Bureau, and the business varieties of methanol fuel can be added to the sales qualification of refined oil before they can legally operate and sell methanol gasoline.

Out of the prudent consideration of environmental protection and safety, the state and the Ministry of Environmental Protection have not issued clear policies and measures to promote methanol fuel. In 2009, the National Standards Committee announced the standard of "methanol for vehicle fuel", the basic standard of fuel methanol at this standard, is the legal basis for the transformation of methanol from chemical products to fuel, the standard stipulates various indicators of methanol that can be mixed with gasoline, but it is only a recommended standard and not a national standard for methanol gasoline, and cannot play a mandatory role in the large-scale promotion of methanol fuel. Subsequently, the National Standards Committee announced the standard of "Methanol Gasoline for Vehicles (M85)", which is the access system for methanol gasoline to enter the market, so that methanol gasoline has a legal identity.

Methanol gasoline is generally available. Methanol gasoline is made of gasoline, methanol and some additives according to the specified volume and mass ratio, which is low cost and suitable for large-scale use. Methanol gasoline has been researched and produced for nearly half a century, and it has long been used in oil-scarce countries.

Methanol gasoline is questioned because it has a certain toxicity, if it is not completely burned, it may produce formaldehyde, formic acid and other substances, causing certain harm to the human body, and at the same time, it will also harm the engine and pollute the environment.

Although methanol is harmful, its advantages outweigh the disadvantages, methanol gasoline is cheaper, if mixed with gasoline can also effectively reduce exhaust emissions, and at the same time can also remove carbon deposits from the engine, which can effectively reduce the dependence on oil.
