Abstract
With the expectation of energy shortages for the coming decade each country must now take stock of its energy resources for the purpose of energy planning. Due consideration must be given t o provide for all forms of energy in the plans. The role of liquid fuels is very important and for Malaysia the most viable liquid fuel is methanol. This i s because methanol is projected to be widely used due to the wide range of raw materials, some of which is found in abundance, from which it could be manufactured economically and because Malaysia has the resources t o manufacture methanol for many years to come.
