The global Bio-based Butanol market size is expected to reach $ 139 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 3.4% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

Bio-based butanol or biobutanol is a butanol that is produced from biomass feedstocks (like corn, cassava, molasses, sugar beet and sugar cane etc). Butanol is a 4-carbon alcohol that is currently used as an industrial solvent in many wood finishing products. Biobutanol can be utilized in internal combustion engines as both a gasoline additive and or a fuel blend with gasoline. Since biobutanol is more chemically similar to gasoline than ethanol, it can be integrated into regular internal combustion engines easier than ethanol.

North America is the largest Bio-based Butanol market with about 89% market share. China is follower, accounting for about 4% market share.

The key players are Gevo, Cobalt, Green Biologics, Butamax etc. Top 3 companies occupied about 92% market share.
