Latin America is one of the top-growing markets in the bio/pharmaceutical industry. Even in the pesticides market, Latin America has seen the strongest growth in the last decade. This shift was supported by the increased efficiency in biopesticides and the growing consumer confidence in their performance. Also, the region offers huge potential in the automotive industry as the car ownerships are low and the disposable incomes are relatively higher than in the Asia-Pacific region. Thus, the methanol market is expected to grow to a certain extent. Though the other countries in the region are not well developed, the increasing trend of environment awareness coupled with the growing adoption of cost-effective options among end-users industries in the region is expected to boost the studied market over the forecast period.
Ethanol’s higher energy density as compared to methanol while still being a liquid makes it an attractive alternative. In many countries, it is used as a common additive to fuels. Brazil is the world's largest producer of ethanol. In Brazil, petrol contains a minimum 25% of ethanol by law and as many as 17.3 million vehicles use 100% ethanol (called neat ethanol) as a fuel. Thus, the use of ethanol proves to be a restraint for the growth of the methanol market.
Biorefining appears to have a powerful grip on the economy with the enhancements in technology. The expeditious growth of biorefining results in the increase in the capacity of production of renewable chemicals in the methanol market in the next five-to-six years. The economic competitiveness of biorefining and increase in consumer demands for renewable goods is pulling this market. Various alternatives are used in Brazil as technological advancements such as the production of chemicals platform biorefineries through biomass-to-liquid technology (BLT). Apart from this, it accounts for more efficient reuse of biomass regarding sustainability, logistics and markets.
The players leading the methanol market are BASF AG, Teijin, Methanex Corporation, Celanese Corporation, Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS), Valero Marketing and Supply Company, Qatar Fuel Additives Company Limited, Methanol Holdings (Trinidad) Limited (MHTL), Mitsui & Co., Ltd., Mitsubishi Chemicals, Saudi Basic Industries Corporation and Zagros Petrochemical Company (ZPC).
