Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/22/2018 -- Dimethyl Ether (DME) is an ether which has the largest application in chemical industry. It is produced using fossil fuels, methanol, and biomass. However, the most prominent raw material used in producing DME is coal. Having various properties similar to Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) it is being considered as an excellent alternative to the traditional fuel. Many countries are moving towards using dimethyl ether, reducing their dependency LPG. Various plans are underway to access DME as an alternative fuel in vehicles. Companies producing DME are also using raw materials from natural organic waste, hence, this is also expected to help in reducing carbon footprints. Various major market players are also entering into a partnership to enhance DME production and evaluate fuel performance and viability.

The scarcity of LPG in various regions is one of the major concerns, hence, the demand for DME is rising. DME is considered as the high-performance and clean fuel, hence, it is being extensively used in diesel engines. The automobile industry is also moving towards the use of DME, as it eliminates particulate exhaust emissions, thereby saving the high cost of diesel particulate filters. The automobile industry is also moving towards using DME blended with LPG or DME as standalone as it is considered as a cleaner energy source. With the rise in demand, the production of DME is also increasing. Companies are increasing investments in research and development activities to produce DME in an efficient manner. Countries are also moving towards using DME in order to reduce emission and fulfill increasing demand for cost-effective and clean fuel.
