Bio Based Chemical Market - Forecasts from 2018 to 2023
The bio-based chemicals market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 14.55% over the forecast period of 2017 - 2023. Bio-based chemicals are defined as those class of chemicals which are produced by using natural feedstock and have minimal impact on the environment. In the past, bio-based chemical products were rarely able to compete with traditional petrochemical products. But with the advancement in the methods and technologies, the bio-based chemical industry has become increasingly profitable and is now poised to take over a large share of the market. The major advantage of using bio-based chemical is that the feedstock used is available in abundance in nature and is recyclable. Climate change and depletion of fossil feedstocks are the key driving factors that are boosting the demand for bio-based chemicals. Growing global environmental awareness and sharp rise in oil prices are compelling manufacturers in this market to look for alternative sources to replace traditional petroleum in developing various products. Government initiatives to encourage sustainable products and processes across various industries to reduce carbon dioxide emissions is playing an integral role in the bio-based chemicals market growth. The market is expected to grow at a steady pace over the forecast period owing to the increased R&D activities in this field by various companies and governments to encourage use of sustainable products and to promote green chemicals. However, high production cost of these chemicals can restrain the growth of the market.
