Methanol, reimagined.

Transforming residual carbon into low-carbon methanol — modular, decentralized, fossil-free.

Our mission.

Capture

We recover non-recyclable carbon streams before they are landfilled or lost as CO₂ emissions.

Convert

Through proven, industrial-grade chemical processes, we convert recovered carbon into scalable, low-carbon methanol.

Cicularize

Low-carbon methanol re-enters the system, replacing fossil feedstock with circular carbon and closing the industrial carbon loop.

The problem...

Valuable carbon — much of it originally derived from fossil sources — is burned or landfilled every day, while industry continues to depend on virgin fossil feedstocks. We break that paradox.

Our solution.

Carbon Collection

We unlock previously non-recyclable carbon streams as a scalable feedstock for low-carbon methanol production — including coated and treated waste wood today and non-recyclable mixed plastic streams in the next phase.
I.

Carbon-to-methanol conversion

Using scalable, industrial-grade and modularized processes, we convert residual carbon into high-purity, low-carbon methanol — a versatile fuel and chemical building block.
II.

Decentralized,
point-of-source production

Containerized, modular systems enable methanol production directly at the carbon source — reducing transport emissions and unlocking local, resilient supply for both feedstock and product.
III.

Versatile low-carbon applications

Low-carbon methanol works as a drop-in shipping fuel, a chemical building block and a hydrogen carrier — integrating seamlessly into existing global value chains.
IV.

Making it Real.

Modular by Design

Each system is built as a standardized, highly modularized container/skid unit — enabling efficient manufacturing, straightforward deployment and quick scale-up.

Decentralized Deployment

Container-based systems are installed close to the carbon source - reducing transport requirements, lowering emissions, and supporting regional circular economies.

Scalable Infrastructure

Capacity scales by adding additional units - making the system adaptable to different regions, carbon streams and future demand.

Founder — Dr. Andreas Starnecker

NeoMethanol is founded on extensive industry experience. After many years working with industrial processes, the focus is clear: sustainability must work in practice and be competitive in cost. By combining proven industrial know-how with innovative technologies, NeoMethanol aims to replace fossil-based methanol with renewable, low-carbon methanol.
