Emerging Trends Highlighted by Technological Innovation in n-Butanol
Key players in the n-butanol market are focusing on advancing production methods to gain a competitive advantage, especially through the development of PO/TBA (propylene oxide/tertiary butyl alcohol) processes. These methods are highly efficient and economically beneficial as they simultaneously generate two industrially valuable products. For example, in March 2023, US-based Lyondell Basell Industries N.V. inaugurated the world's largest PO and TBA manufacturing unit, specializing in chemicals essential for a wide range of applications.

PO is predominantly used to create polyurethane foam, which finds use in items like mattresses, automotive seat cushions, and insulation materials that improve energy efficiency. Meanwhile, TBA is transformed into fuel additives such as methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) and ethyl tertiary butyl ether (ETBE), which enhance gasoline combustion and contribute to reduced vehicle emissions.
