The global dimethyl ether market size is expected to reach USD 8.79 billion by 2030, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “Dimethyl Ether Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Raw Material (Fossil Fuel Based, Bio-based); By Application; By Region; Segment Forecast, 2022 - 2030” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Dimethyl ether (DME) is obtained from synthesis gas produced from natural gas, coal, or biomass. The dimethyl, also called methoxymethane, is a natural compound with the chemical equation CH3OCH3.
There has been considerable growth in the automotive industry owing to rising sales of automobiles in developing economies. The increasing automobile sale directly influences the sales of dimethyl, which serves as an additive to the fuel. Dimethyl ether is produced by converting hydrocarbons to synthesis gas through gasification. Synthesis gas is first converted to methanol using a copper-based catalyst, with subsequent dehydration of methanol, thus making ether.
The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted the industry due to supply chain disruption, lack of raw materials, operational challenges, transportation delays, and travel restrictions. Manufacturing activities and industrial operations have also been halted due to various global government regulations. The pandemic has significantly impacted the automobile and industrial industries, resulting in decreased demand and worker impairment. Import restrictions to stop the virus's spread have also held back the market's expansion.
