Biofuel Additives Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028
The global biofuel additives market size reached US$ 16.8 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 26.1 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4% during 2023-2028.
Biofuel additives refer to specialty chemicals that enhance the efficacy of biofuels, such as methanol, biodiesel, ethanol, and diethyl ether. They are widely used to improve engine performance and combustion quality and reduce brake-specific fuel consumption (BSFC) and heating. They are commonly available in emulsifiers, antioxidants, octane improvers, corrosion inhibitors, cetane improvers, dyes and markers, detergents, and dispersant variants. Biofuel additives are synthesized from the lignocellulosic feedstock or conventional feedstock and exhibit density, viscosity, and solubility. In comparison to traditional additives, biofuel additives have higher oxygen content, are cost-effective, non-toxic, and do not produce harmful chemicals. As a result, biofuel additives find extensive applications across aviation, automotive, marine, and electric power industries.
Biofuel Additives Market Trends:
Significant growth in the automotive industry across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. Globally, the increasing demand for biofuel additives can be attributed to their eco-friendly nature, such as providing enhanced energy conservation, improving air quality, and reducing the emission of greenhouse gasses (GHGs), which, in turn, is favoring the market growth. In addition to this, various technological advancements, such as the development of hydrodynamic cavitation techniques for the manufacturing of biodiesel with enhanced reaction rate and energy efficiency, are providing a considerable boost to the market growth. Apart from this, the rising demand for low-emission engines and the implementation of various government initiatives toward sustainable development are anticipated to drive the market toward growth. Other factors, such as the growing demand for biofuel additives across the aviation, energy, power, and marine sectors and the rising awareness regarding the adverse effects of fossil fuels, are creating a positive outlook for the market.
