Description

Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, wood alcohol, wood naphtha or wood spirits, is a chemical with the formula CH3OH (often abbreviated MeOH). This product acquired the name “wood alcohol” because it was once produced chiefly as a by-product of the destructive distillation of wood. Modern methanol is produced in a catalytic industrial process directly from carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen.

Moreover, it is very cheap compared to ethanol. People also tend to use acetone instead of methanol which is a good cleaning agent too.
