Methanol can be considered as a chemical storage molecule for hydrogen due to its high 4:1 hydrogen-carbon ratio.Methanol is also liquid at ambient temperatures which easetransportation and storage issues. Furthermore, methanol can be reformed to produce hydrogen at lower temperatures than methane or other hydrocarbons such as ethanol, because it has no CeC bonds. Consuming methanol as a hydrogensource for fuel cells not only generates energy at higher effi-ciencies, but it also produces less pollutant than fossil fuels.
