Dimethyl Ether, which is also known as methoxymethane is a colorless gas used in different fuel and heating applications. The market for bio-based and synthetic dimethyl ether has been growing for the past decade and is expected to grow during the forecast period owing to its extensive usage in aerosol propellants, LPG blending, transportation, industrial, and domestic applications. The growing demand for greener fuels has boosted the product demand for LPG blending. However, fuel is no lubricant in nature, which affects the delivery and injection of fuel. This factor is likely to threaten the growth of the market.
The bio-based and synthetic dimethyl ether industry is segmented on the basis of raw materials, and applications. On the basis of raw materials, the market is further segmented to fossil fuels and bioproducts. Further, on the basis of applications, the market is divided into LPG blending, aerosol propellants, transportation fuels, industrial, and others. The fossil fuel segment is anticipated to have a considerable share in the market for its abundant availability of natural gas and coal reserves from the earth’s surface which is extracted while using advanced machinery and equipment. Bio-based product is anticipated to showcase the considerable growth during the forecast period attributed to its benefits of a generation of cleaner energy fuels.
Geographically, the market is segmented on the basis of the regions including North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World (RoW). The market in the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to have significant market value owing to the increasing usage of LPG’s in cooking’s, transportations, and other applications across countries such as India, China, Indonesia, and Japan. Moreover, governmental interventions in substituting kerosene with dimethyl ether and rising modernization have further fueled the market for LPG products. Europe is expected to have considerable share attributed to the increasing adoption of dimethyl ether fuels for igniting compressed engines.
The market includes a few major companies such as Korea Gas Corp., Grillo-Werke AG, Oberon Fuels, Inc., Cayman Chemical Co., and Fuel DME Production Co., Ltd. These players adopt a variety of strategies including the merger, procurement, products and services to expand and stay competitive in the market.
