Industrial gas group SIAD will provide an air separation unit (ASU) for the Pacifico Mexinol ultra-low-carbon methanol project in Sinaloa, Mexico, which is set to be the world’s largest of its kind.

The supplied ASU will produce around 3,500 tonnes of high-purity oxygen per day, essential for gasification and carbon capture in methanol production.

Set to be operational in 2029, Pacifico Mexinol is expected to produce 0.35 million tonnes of green methanol from captured carbon and green hydrogen, alongside 1.8 million tonnes of blue methanol from natural gas with carbon capture.

The site will be the largest standalone ultra-low-carbon chemical production facility globally and one of the world’s largest producers of green hydrogen and green methanol.
