The generated methanol is formed mainly from the methoxy groups of the Iignins. Besides methanol (approx. 2%), the aqueous phase contains acetic acid (approx. 6%) and acetone (approx. 0.2%). The combustible gas which emerges consists of methane, hydrogen and small amounts of methanol which has not condensed. The experiment does not directly show that an alcohol has been formed. This fact must be worked out in a corresponding teaching talk. The general data sheet for methanol could be filled in here, but it would appear to be more sensible to do this Learning objectives
