AGC Begins Study on Methanol Made from CO2

AGC Inc. and Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company Inc. agreed to study the production and sale of methanol made from carbon dioxide (CO2) generated from AGC’s architectural glass production, by applying the methanol production technology developed by MGC. This study targets commercialization by around 2030 at AGC‘s Kashima Plant, and when achieved, it will be the world’s first case of producing and selling circular carbon methanol that effectively utilizes the CO2 generated from glass production.
