Market Overview:
The global Dimethyl Ether fuel market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for Dimethyl Ether as a fuel source in various applications such as chemical industry, automobile industry, and others. Additionally, the growing awareness about environment-friendly fuels is also propelling the growth of this market. However, volatility in prices of raw materials used for manufacturing Dimethyl Ether may restrain the growth of this market to some extent during the forecast period. On basis of type, Methanol based DME accounted for majority share in terms of revenue in 2017 and is projected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. This can be attributed to high adoption rate of Methanol based DME as a fuel source owing to its properties such as low emissions and high efficiency when compared with other types available in the market.
Product Definition:
Dimethyl Ether fuel is a hydrocarbon that is used as an alternative to gasoline. It is made up of methane and ethane, and it burns more cleanly than gasoline. This makes it a better choice for environmental reasons, and it also produces less pollution. Dimethyl ether fuel can be used in cars, trucks, boats, and other vehicles. It is also sometimes used as a heating fuel or cooking fuel.
Methanol Based DME:
Methanol based DME is a type of dimethyl ether (DME) which is widely used as an alternative to gasoline. Methanol-based DME has been gaining importance in the global market owing to its ability to reduce carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons emissions, along with being a cheaper alternative than gasoline. The U.S.
Coal Based DME:
Coal based DME is a type of dimethyl ether (DME) fuel used as an alternative to gasoline. It is made from coal, which is processed into gasified coal tar and then further processed into DME. The major advantage of using CBDMF in comparison to petroleum diesel or straight vegetable oil is that it has a high octane rating, which makes it suitable for use in conventional engines designed primarily for petrol/gasoline-based fuels.
Application Insights:
Chemical industry was the largest application segment and accounted for over 70% of global demand in 2016. Chemical manufacturing is one of the major industries where DME is used as a feedstock due to its high energy content. The U.S., China, Brazil, and India are expected to be the key consumers owing to their large chemical industries along with other emerging economies such as South Africa, Indonesia etc.
Automobile industry emerged as another significant application segment accounting for around 15% of global demand in 2016 owing to rising fuel prices and environmental concerns regarding greenhouse gas emissions which contribute towards Global Dimethyl Ether Fuel (DME) market growth.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest and fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing automotive production in China, India, and Japan. In 2017, Asia Pacific accounted for a share of more than 30% of global automobile production. Increasing demand from other end-use industries such as chemical will drive Dimethyl Ether (DME) fuel consumption in this region over the forecast period.
The Middle East & Africa is anticipated to witness significant growth owing to its flourishing oil industry coupled with rising petrochemical manufacturing capacity across countries such as Saudi Arabia and UAE which are major consumers of DME fuels for industrial applications including refrigeration & air conditioning systems used in oil wells for exploration activities among others).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Dimethyl Ether Fuel from the transportation sector as a cleaner and more efficient fuel alternative to gasoline and diesel fuels.
- Growing popularity of Dimethyl Ether Fuel as a marine fuel due to its low emissions and high power-to-weight ratio.
- Increasing demand for Dimethyl Ether Fuel in the industrial sector for use in process heating, chemical synthesis, and refrigeration applications.
- Development of new production technologies that will reduce the cost of manufacturing Dimethyl Ether Fuel, making it more competitive with other fuels alternatives such as gasoline and diesel fuel.
