DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Industrial
Alcohol Market Analysis, By Product (Ethyl Alcohol, Methyl Alcohol,
Isopropyl Alcohol, Isobutyl Alcohol), By Source, By Application, By
Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2014 – 2025" report has been

Regulatory changes by distinct governments globally, mandating the use
of ethanol in gasoline blend as an alternative fuel accompanied by
rising demand for ethanol as octane level enhancer is driving the
industrial alcohol market.

In terms of revenue, ethanol was estimated as the largest product in
2016 and the trend is anticipated to continue at a growth rate of 9.5%
over the forecast period. Increasing need for fuel grade ethanol is
driving its growth. On account of rising global greenhouse gas
emissions, the requirement for an alternative to fossil fuels in
transportation is gaining importance.

Owing to its lower emission properties, ethanol among the other biofuels
is largely preferred as a clean fuel in transportation. Besides fuel
grade, ethanol is also available in food grade variant and is used in
many industrial, pharmaceutical and food & beverage applications.

Industrial alcohol can be derived from various sources such as corn,
sugarcane molasses, fossil fuels, and from grains. U.S. and Brazil
dominated the ethyl alcohol market in terms of both volume and value.
Corn is the largest source of ethanol in U.S. whereas sugarcane is the
largest source in Brazil.

Methanol, which is largely derived form syn-gas, is used in the chemical
industry as an anti-freeze, intermediate, denaturant for ethanol, fuel,
and solvent for the production of various chemicals. Besides ethyl
alcohol and methyl alcohol, others such as isopropyl alcohol and
isobutyl alcohol, are witnessing increased applications in various end
use industries.

However, the prices of industrial alcohols are fluctuating owing to the
production disequilibrium in the raw materials such as sugar, natural
gas and crop based starches such as corn and bagasse
