Shanxi to sell vehicle methanol gasoline required specification

On May 13, according to the notification from Shanxi Economic Commission, the Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision, and the Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce, in order to standardize the methanol gasoline logo, from now on, all operators selling methanol methanol gasoline and methanol fuel for vehicles in Shanxi Province should use it. Specification, obvious identification.

As a major province of coal resources, Shanxi Province has a unique resource advantage in the low-cost production of fuel methanol. The development of methanol is a major strategic move for the province to increase the comprehensive utilization of coal resources, develop clean energy, and develop a recycling economy. It has a positive role in promoting economic restructuring, environmental protection, and economic development. Since the end of 2002, since Taiyuan and other places began to be piloted and promoted, the industrialization of methanol gasoline in Shanxi Province has developed rapidly, and demonstration and promotion have achieved good results. At present, the province has more than 800 gas stations selling methanol gasoline. However, operators such as gas stations lacked proper identification and confusion, which hindered the further marketing of methanol gasoline. In order to regulate the sales of methanol gasoline, the provincial Economic Commission, the Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision and the Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce have set specific regulations for the methanol gasoline logo, and require that all vehicles using methanol gasoline and methanol fuel for vehicles be sold in Shanxi Province from now on. Specification, obvious identification. Among them, the M5 vehicle methanol gasoline (adding 5% vehicle fuel methanol in gasoline of 90# and above) was identified as "M5/90 gasoline" and "M5/93 gasoline" respectively; the M15 vehicle methanol gasoline logo was "M15/90 Gasoline", "M15/93 Gasoline", "M15/97 Gasoline"; M85, M100 Vehicle Fuel Gasoline Logo are "M85 Methanol Fuel" and "M100 Methanol Fuel" respectively.

Previously, if the logo of methanol gasoline and methanol fuel used by the operators did not meet the requirements, they should be immediately replaced by the standard logos. In the future, relevant departments will check the use of methanol gasoline and methanol fuels by operators.
