Global Green and Bio-Based Solvents Market 2016-2021: Key Players are Cargill, Corbion, E.I. Dupont De Nemours & Co, Huntsman, Solvay & The DOW Chemical Co – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Research and Markets has announced the addition of the “Global
Green and Bio-Based Solvents Market” report to their offering.

The global green and bio-based solvents market has been estimated at USD
6.07 billion in 2016 and is projected to reach USD 8.73 billion by 2021,
growing at a CAGR of 7.55% during the forecast period, 2016 to 2021.

Green and bio-based solvents serve as an alternative to the conventional
solvents in the market as they help in reducing the negative
environmental impact caused from the use of solvents in chemical
production. Green and bio-based solvents are produced from renewable
resources; they are biodegradable, non-corrosive & non-carcinogenic in
nature, recyclable and help prevent ozone depletion; thus, accelerating
the demand for various paints and coating applications.

However, the market faces certain drawbacks, such as the cost and
availability of new technologies used in the production process of green
and bio-based solvents, and the ambiguity relating to the supply of raw
material feedstock, both, regarding cost and availability. These factors
may act as a roadblock to the growth of the market.

The global green and bio-based solvents market has been segmented by
application into paints & coatings, industrial & domestic cleaning,
printing inks, adhesives & sealants, pharmaceutical, cosmetics,
agriculture, and other applications. In 2015, the paints & coatings
application accounted for more than 40% of the global green and
bio-based solvents market.

The global green and bio-based solvents market, by type, is broadly
segmented into bio-alcohols, bio-glycols, bio-diols, ethyl lactate,
D-limonene, methyl soyate and others. Bio-alcohols is further divided
into bio-ethanol, bio-methanol, bio-propanol, and bio-butanol; and
bio-glycols is segmented into bio-based propylene glycol and bio-based
ethylene glycol. The increasing government support for research of green
and bio-based solvents, coupled with the stringent rules and regulations
imposed by the government on VOC emissions and other hazardous air
pollutants is opening a gateway to opportunities for the global green
and bio-based solvents market.

The increasing adoption of green and bio-based solvents, due to their
biodegradability, recyclability, resistance to corrosion, and the
accelerating growth in the paints and coatings market across the world,
are expected to offer numerous opportunities for the growth of the
global green and bio-based solvents market.
