The global Raffinate market has expanded to reach approximately 3000 thousand tonnes in 2022 and is expected to further expand at a steady CAGR of 4.16% during the forecast period until 2032. In March 2022, JG Summit Olefins Corporation (JGSOC) began operating its one and only Butadiene Extraction Plant in the Philippines with the capacity to produce 70 thousand tonnes per annum of Butadiene along with 110 thousand tonnes per annum of Raffinate-1.
Raffinate or C4 Raffinate or C4 residual is the residual product that remains after the separation of 1,3 Butadiene and 1-Butene from Mixed C4 stream. Because of the low Reid vapor pressure, it is preferred to natural gasoline in ethanol or gasoline mixes. Raffinate is majorly used to synthesize Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), which is a flammable substance. MTBE raises the octane and oxygen content of gasoline and works as a pollution-reducing compound in gasoline. Moreover, raffinate also finds application to synthesize Secondary butyl alcohol (SBA), a coupling agent in water-reducible coatings, industrial cleaners, and paint removers.
Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) is frequently used in gasoline engine fuel as an octane enhancer and anti-knocking agent. The effectiveness and lower price of MTBE make it a popular gasoline additive in the world. In addition, harmful gasoline components such as olefins, lead, benzene, and sulphur can be replaced at a reasonable cost with MTBE. With rapid industrialization, the demand for gasoline fuel for heavy-duty vehicles is anticipated to rise, which will most likely further fuel the raffinate market in the forthcoming years. The global Raffinate market is anticipated to reach 4600 thousand tonnes by 2032.
As of 2022, the Asia Pacific region dominates the Raffinate market in terms of consumption. this region consumed approximately 52% of the market. This region is anticipated to retain as the highest consumer even in the forecast period owing to the rapidly expanding transportation sector for goods by the means of vehicles which are highly dependent on gasoline and its additives like MTBE. China is a market leader for MTBE, which ultimately drives up the majority of the demand for raffinate. China has the largest vehicle industry and is expected to continue to be so in the future.
Based on the end-use, the global Raffinate market is segregated into Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), Secondary butyl alcohol (SBA), Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), and Others. Among these, the production of Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) is the largest application of raffinate and consumed approximately 55% of the market in 2022. In order to lower emissions from petroleum, MTBE is added to it. With the expansion of the petroleum sector, the MTBE market will most likely experience robust growth.
Significant players in the production of Global Raffinate are Nouri Petrochemical Company, Faravaresh Bandar Imam Co., ONGC Mangalore Petrochemicals Ltd., Buali Sina Petrochemical Co., Braskem, PT Chandra Asri Petrochemical, Tbk, TPC Group, Shell Plc, Reliance Industries Limited, JG summit Olefins Corporation, Basparan Bandar Imam Co, Shimibaft Petrochemical Company, and Others.
