Additional Resources on Methanol Safe Handling
Using Physical and Chemical Properties to Manage Flammable Liquid Hazards Part 1
This three-part Technical Bulletin was written by Mr. Robert R. Roberts of Roberts & Roberts Risk & Reliability Engineering and edited by Alliance Consulting International, San Diego, California under contract to the Methanol Institute.
Part 1 of this Bulletin provides information for eight fuels ranging from gaseous hydrogen to biodiesel, and is divided into two sections. Section 1-A serves as the introduction to the table and contains the glossary of terms and acronyms. Section 1-B is the actual fuel properties data table.
Using Physical and Chemical Properties to Manage Flammable Liquid Hazards Part 2
This three-part Technical Bulletin was written by Mr. Robert R. Roberts of Roberts & Roberts Risk & Reliability Engineering and edited by Alliance Consulting International, San Diego, California under contract to the Methanol Institute.
This is part two of the three-part Technical Bulletin, which provides guidance for using physical, chemical, thermal, and electrical properties to identify and control hazards of flammable liquids. Properties and characteristic parameters of eight fuels [hydrogen, compressed natural gas (CNG), propane, methanol, ethanol, gasoline, No. 2 diesel, and biodiesel] are listed in part 1B of the Technical Bulletin (2). This bulletin compares various properties for gasoline and methanol.
Using Physical and Chemical Properties to Manage Flammable Liquid Hazards Part 3
This three-part Technical Bulletin was written by Mr. Robert R. Roberts of Roberts & Roberts Risk & Reliability Engineering and edited by Alliance Consulting International, San Diego, California under contract to the Methanol Institute.
This is the last section of the three-part Technical Bulletin, which provides guidance for using physical, chemical, thermal, and electrical properties to identify and control hazards of flammable liquids. Eight fuels [hydrogen, compressed natural gas, propane (a compressed gas), methanol, ethanol, gasoline, No. 2 diesel, and biodiesel] are used as examples. The table in Part 1-B lists the physical and chemical properties of these materials.
Atmospheric Above Ground Tank Storage Of Methanol
Guidelines for designing, fabricating, constructing, repairing, and safeguarding above-ground methanol storage tanks because the physical and chemical properties of methanol are unique to methanol and are not the same as those of other bulk-stored flammable liquids.
Methanol Drum Transport, Handling & Storage
Guide on handling, storing and transporting methanol drum.
Methanol Small Quantities Bulletin
This bulletin is about relatively small quantities of methanol or products containing methanol, such as maximum 60 gallon containers or smaller size containers (e.g., hand held) or small sized portable tanks. It describes requirements at local, state, national and international level governing methanol
transportation, storage and use of methanol in occupational and consumer settings, disposal and spills of methanol.
