top methanol companies

 

Methanex Corporation, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc., Zagros Petrochemical Company, Celanese Corporation, and Proman, among others, are the major players in the global market for methanol.

 

As per the analysis by Expert Market Research, the global methanol market grew at a CAGR of around 3.9% in the historical period of 2023-2028. The market is further anticipated to witness a healthy growth in the forecast period of 2023-2028, driven by the diverse applications of methanol.

 

Methanol (CH3OH) is also known as ‘wood alcohol’. It is a volatile, flammable, light, and poisonous liquid alcohol, which is biodegradable in nature. It is a water-soluble liquid with a mild alcoholic odour and is colourless. Also, liquid methanol offers an exceptional approach to conveniently and safely storing and transporting energy. It is a liquid chemical generally used in the making of everyday products containing plastic, solvents, fuel, and cosmetics, among others. The biodegradability and clean combustion, coupled with a low boiling temperature, also contribute to increased product utilisation across industries.

 

The growing applications of methanol in various end-use industries are aiding the methanol market growth. Methanol converted into acetic acid, formaldehyde, and MMA are used in the production of a range of substances and compounds. For example, fundamental chemical products such as olefins are likely to be manufactured via a methanol-to-olefin process, along with numerous organic compounds such as dimethyl ether, a potential replacement for diesel oil which is employed for its improved combustion act.

 

Acetic acid is employed in the production of paints and adhesives, which are usually employed in the construction industry. The rising usage of methanol in producing formaldehyde has also propelled the market growth, as formaldehyde is used in the healthcare industry to produce vaccines. The increased development of a methanol-based transportation system to encourage the adoption of bio-methanol products obtained from agricultural waste, timber and other renewable resources is likely to benefit the global methanol market.

 

The market is also fuelled by the increasing demand from other application industries utilising the energy industries, wherein it goes into the fabrication of methyl tertiary butyl ether, and methyl methacrylate, among others. Furthermore, the increasing use of methanol as fuel in the automotive and aviation sectors is expected to aid its demand in the upcoming years. This can be attributed to reduced fuel costs, efficient combustion, and low flammability associated with the use of methanol as a fuel alternative.
