Fluctuations in Crude Oil Prices could Hamper Market Growth

Despite vast growth opportunities, the market's growth prospects could be restrained to a certain extent owing to fluctuations in supply and pricing of crude oil as isobutanol is manufactured from propene, which is a key derivative of crude oil refining. Nevertheless, the increased focus on research and development in the area of bio-fuel has enabled the production of isobutanol with the help of biological fermentation in the recent years. Moreover, companies operating in the global isobutanol market may benefit from the increased usage of isobutanol in the development of bio-fuel, which are much cleaner and have nearly 30% more energy content as compared to ethanol.
