Conventional fuel injection & delivery systems are not compatible for DME use, as the product has no lubrication properties. Hence, diesel engines require a fuel-tolerant system or must find ways for necessary lubrication. These factors may pose challenges to Dimethyl Ether Market growth in the coming years.
Fossil fuel segment of Dimethyl Ether Market shall expand at CAGR close to 8% in terms of volume. Ample natural gas availability coupled with diesel price hikes shall prove beneficial for Dimethyl Ether Market growth in the coming years. However, strict government regulations for clean energy may hamper dimethyl ether market growth over the next few years.
Bio-based Dimethyl Ether Market shall witness gains close to CAGR 11% in terms of volume. Bio-based DME is environment friendly as it does not emit sulphur oxides, mercury, nitrous oxides and other hazardous air pollutants, which makes it highly desirable as a substitute fuel to diesel in compressed ignition diesel engine. Additionally, the product is gaining popularity as aerosol propellant in domestic applications sector, which will positively influence Dimethyl Ether Market growth in the coming years.
In 2016, aerosol propellants segment was valued more than USD 1 billion. It offers versatile properties such as low odor and toxicity and its eco-friendly characteristics shall boost overall product demand for the forecast timeframe. Transportation fuel segment shall witness significant gains around 14% CAGR over the next few years owing to its decent ignition quality and high cetane number.
In 2016, U.S DME market was worth more than USD 300 million. This can be attributed to increasing bio-based DME acceptance across the region due to its low emission characteristics. Europe is likely to witness gains close to 10% CAGR in the forecast timespan. Automakers investment in R&D towards low emitting vehicles shall drive this regional dimethyl ether industry in forecast period. For example, Ford Motors announced investments in R&D close to USD 3.5 million for innovations in internal combustion engines with environment compatibility, similar to electric vehicles.
