Carbon neutral methanol can be produced from urban sewage, agricultural animal waste, and from syngas produced through the pyrolysis of urban garbage, agricultural crop waste, and the dead trees and potentially fire hazardous foliage from forest. But in the near future, green methanol could also be produced from the synthesis of hydrogen produced from nuclear, solar, wind, and hydroelectricity synthesized with CO2 directly extracted from the atmosphere or from the flu gases of biomass pyrolysis plants or methanol electric power plants using green methanol.
