Abstract
The global renewable chemicals market is estimated to reach US $ 59 billion in
2014 from about US $ 45 billion in 2009. Though several companies in the
chemicals industry were affected by the recent economic crisis, the companies
producing renewable chemicals are expected to weather the crisis. The driving
force for the renewable chemicals market is the low requirement of capital for
both production as well as feedstock. Moreover, consumer demand for green
products and governmental support to the industry for reducing dependence on
finite non renewable petroleum feedstock as well as reducing green house gas
emission has been driving the market for renewable chemicals. The growth of
the industrial biotechnology has also contributed to the growth of the overall
renewable chemicals market due to their innovations in biocatalysis that finds
extensive usage in manufacturing renewable chemicals. Renewable chemicals find
industrial, pharmaceutical application as well as in consumer products.
Focus on reducing global green house gas emissions levels has led to an
increase in the activities in the field of renewable chemicals. Foreseeing the
rising importance of renewable chemicals the major players in the chemicals
industry such as Dow, BASF have already rendered an increased attention on
this market. Though the market for alcohols in the overall renewable chemicals
market accounts for the largest share of the market, polymers is expected to
gain the maximum growth rate for the next five years. Renewable chemicals such
as polymers are expected to command significant share in the overall polymers
market mostly due to their usage in making biodegradable and compostable
plastics and consumer goods such as cell phones, laptops etc. Platform
chemicals also play an important role in the renewable chemicals market since
they contain multiple functional groups and hence present practical potential
for their conversion to families of useful products.
