Dear All, Can anybody suggest methods to measure the methanol in condensed water?
You probably mean condensed water-methanol mixture during distillation of such a mixture. Perry's chemical engineers handbook contains extensive compilation of density/concentration data for water-methanol system. You just need to measure the density of the mixture and then look up in the table for the concentration of methanol.
Dear Razie Razavi,
Thanks a lot for this question. Thanks so much for all colleagues for their contribution. I can use the the density of mixture water + methanol and comare it with the density of pure water and the density of pure methanol at the same temperature.
With my best wishes.

You can also use Raman or IR spectroscopy for this problem.

Suggestions of Mr. Kirill are appropriate, but the instrumentation is expensive.
