Just recently methanol was $378/ton in small amounts. In 2019 it was between $200/ton and $300/ton. I'm too lazy to do the price deflation--and I wouldn't know

Just recently methanol was $378/ton in small amounts. In 2019 it was between $200/ton and $300/ton. I'm too lazy to do the price deflation--and I wouldn't know what deflator to use--but that seems like it would have been at least comparable.
Fuel oil may have been similar.
Sulfuric acid $170/ton in 2022.

- londons_explore 4y agoLiquid oxygen pricing is mostly the electricity pricing... Equipment cost is small in comparison. Which means it varies widely depending on where in the world you're wanting it. It isn't valuable enough to ship far.
- Robotbeat 4y agoIt takes about 200kWh per tonne of oxygen separated. If it’s mostly electricity price (therefore total price is at most twice the electricity price), and your industrial electricity is 7¢/kWh (common in the US), then you’re saying the total price of liquid oxygen is no more than about $30/tonne, even lower than my $100/tonne.
