Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/w9gtpw/global_biobased) has announced the addition of the “Global Bio-Based Chemicals Market By Products (Plastics, PLA, PHA, Regenerated Cellulose, Degradable Polyesters, Pet, Fuel, Food Products, Biomass, Succinic Acid, Ethanol, PE, Dyes, Glycerol) Overview, Trends, Opportunities, Challenges, Forecast 2014-2020” report to their offering.
The global chemical industry, production of bio-based products could generate revenue worth $10-15 billion
The global bio-based chemical and polymer production (excluding bio-fuels) is currently estimated to be around 50 million tons. Compared to petrochemical based chemicals such as polyethylene, di-acids, diols, etc their use is miniscule but fast growing. Some examples of bio-based chemicals are non-food starch, regenerated cellulose fibers and derivatives, bio PET, Bio PE, PLA, PHA, bio-degradable polyesters, bio-fuels, bio fertilizers, bio enzymes, fatty acids and fermentation products such as ethanol and citric acid.
Key Motivators of Bio-based Chemicals Market:
For bio-based chemicals to compete against traditional petrochemicals products in terms of market and growth is definitely not easy. The growth, though slow, is however steady. A strong focus on consumer preference for products that are environment-friendly and bio-degradable and government mandates are helping the bio-based chemicals market to grow. High oil price is further motivating the growth of bio-based chemicals and polymers. The renewable resources of bio-energy and bio-fuels are produced as a result of development of bio-based building blocks (chemicals and polymers) and materials (fibre products, start derivatives, etc).
With the immense focus on the industry and the benefits and incentives provided by the government, there is hardly any doubt regarding its growth. Some of the challenges that are expected to restrict the industry include competition from petrochemicals-based chemicals, quality, consistency and cost of production. Production requires huge amount of investments resulting in slow growth.
