Low\u2010temperature liquid\u2010phase methanol synthesis provides an energy\u2010efficient route for valorizing syngas under mild conditions. In this study, we explore the effect of mixed alcohol solvents\u2014specifically 2\u2010butanol and isopropanol\u2014on methanol production over a commercial CuO\/ZnO\/Al\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    O\n                    <jats:sub>3<\/jats:sub>\n                    catalyst at 170\u00b0C and 5\u2009MPa. These two alcohols were selected based on prior reports of high reactivity, with 2\u2010butanol showing superior performance but at a higher cost. A series of reactions with varying 2\u2010butanol content (0%\u2013100%) revealed a nearly linear relationship between solvent composition and methanol yield, suggesting minimal interaction between the two alcohols. Product analysis identified isopropyl formate as the only observable ester intermediate when isopropanol was present, while no 2\u2010butyl formate was detected. These findings clarify how solvent choice influences intermediate stability and methanol productivity, providing guidance for process optimization. Beyond reaction chemistry, this approach integrates with Regenerative Robust Gasification (RRG), which converts heterogeneous organic waste streams into syngas upstream and channels methanol downstream into products, polymers, packaging, and other circular products, advancing circular economy strategies under industrially relevant conditions.\n
