The global methanol industry is growing at a rapid pace. Methanol is a global commodity and is part of the oil & gas industry as well as the chemical industry. The global methanol industry is impacted quite a bit by environmental regulations and political factors as well. With the use of methanol as fuel growing rapidly, the industry is expected to boom in the coming years.
Asia Pacific dominates the global methanol demand, with China accounting for nearly 75% of the region's demand of methanol. The global methanol industry is a dynamic industry that has its presence across the world. Globally, over 100 methanol plants have a production capacity of over 80 million metric tons.
Aruvian Research analyzes this dynamic and vibrant industry in its research report Analyzing the Global Methanol Industry. The report begins with an overview of the global methanol industry starting with an introduction to methanol, an analysis of the value chain of methanol, industry statistics of the global methanol industry, an analysis of methanol market by regions and the global methanol demand and supply scenario. Global methanol production statistics are also analyzed.
The demand for methanol is analyzed by regions and by sectors. We analyze methanol demand in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, South America and Middle East & Africa. For a sector-wise analysis, we look at the segments of formaldehyde, acetic acid, methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) and gasoline blending. Demand statistics for each sector is analyzed along with the demand for derivatives of methanol as well.
An analysis of industry trends and challenges facing the industry is included in the report as well. The role of a methanol economy and the price of methanol is analyzed.
Moving on, we analyze the major markets for methanol. We include an analysis of 23 markets. These include: Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Iran, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, UK and the US.
Competition in the global methanol industry is analyzed followed by an analysis of the major players in the industry. We analyze the 20 leading players in the global methanol industry in our report Analyzing the Global Methanol Industry.
