Methanol Market- Industry Insights, Trends, and Forecast 2025

Methanol is a liquid which is manufactured mostly through oxidization of methane or through synthesis of carbon monoxide and hydrogen. Methanol is termed as wood alcohol since it depicts properties similar to conventional fuels. Methanol is chiefly utilized as a fuel in vehicles as well as an antifreeze solution in automobiles. It is also used as a feedstock for manufacturing various products such as formaldehyde, acetic acid, MTBE, DME, and others. It is used widely in numerous other industrial applications. It is a volatile, colorless, toxic, and flammable liquid. Globally, methanol is produced at around 90 methanol plants. Most of these methanol plants are located in Asia Pacific, Latin America, North America and others.

Future Outlook of Methanol Market
Globally, various mixtures of methanol are being utilized as alternative fuel source for vehicles and other applications. This trend is expected to boost the demand for methanol. Derivatives of methanol are widely used for various industrial applications and processes which are expected to boost the demand for methanol in these industries. Applications such olefins, DME, and gasoline blending provide huge growth opportunities for methanol market. Regions such Middle East and Africa and Latin America have also boosted the production of methanol owing to easy availability and low cost of natural gas in these regions. Production of methanol in North America has also increased owing to shale gas boom in the region. Production cost of methanol in North America has become competitive owing to these factors. Excess supply of methanol in the market and improved safety factors are expected to further drive the demand for methanol owing its low cost of production. Additionally, growing demand for biofuels and strict emissions norms are expected to further drive the demand for methanol across the globe during the forecast period. Asia Pacific is expected to be the leading market for methanol during the forecast period owing to high demand from countries such as China, India, Japan, and others.
