This is nothing new. I have my TTB Form 5110.74 permit from the ATF to make my own and it is free. Takes about a month to get.

Sounds like it could have to be a project I might try. What is the regulations on selling it and to whom could you sell the excess to easily? I think it would be pretty easy to make your money back producing E85 depending on the regulations/taxes on sale of it.

make your own methanol! blow your house up!
2 birds with one stone.
in almost every state you need a license to produce and a license to store it including registration with the ATF. it is a hazardous and combustible substance, it is also an alcohol which is subject to ATF(alcohol, tobacco and firearms) regulations. as alcohol is a controlled substance and also is taxable, in some states even 100% illegal to produce.
it's basically "moonshine".
is it worth it? probably not. maybe one day, but not now.

A guy I know from drag racing heats his shop with waste oil. He was getting hassled over storing a large quantity of flammable hazardous waste in an improper facility. His solution was to buy a used box truck with a blown engine and slap an appropriate hazmat placard on it. He got the truck for a song. it even had a hydraulic lift gate so loading and unloading is easy. You could probably do the same thing for methanol/ethanol.storage

Man I wish Canada had something similar to that 5110.74 permit. Here if you produce Ethanol, for any intent and purpose, it's taxed as drinkable alcohol, and you need a corresponding permit to distill on a provincial level. Looks like it's backyard moonshining for me.

P.S. you guys should check out "Alcohol can be a Gas" by David Blume. I've only watched a presentation so far, and it's pretty good information.
