3Ethane Market - 2023
Ethane Market Information By
Application (Ethylene Synthesis, Acetic Acid
Synthesis, Refrigerant), End-Use Industry
(Packaging, Automotive Transportation,
Construction, Electricals Electronics,
Healthcare, Power), and Region Global Forecast
Till 2023 Market Synopsis The global ethane
market was valued at USD 608 million in 2018 and
is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.14 during the
forecast period. Ethane belongs to the family of
paraffins. It contains two carbons atoms and have
molecular formula C2H6. It is a flammable,
colorless, and odorless gas at standard
temperature and pressure. It is produced majorly
from natural gas on an industrial scale, where it
is isolated from other natural gas fractions such
as methane and propane using different cryogenic
distillation techniques. It is also produced to
some extent as a by-product of petroleum
refining. Ethane is available in different purity
grades to meet the requirement of diverse
industries The chief use of ethane is in the
industrial production of ethylene by steam
cracking. Ethylene, itself, is then used for
manufacturing polyethylene, which is used for
manufacturing food packaging (sandwich bags,
cling wraps, squeeze bottles), non-food packaging
(liners for tanks ponds, shrink stretch film,
moisture barrier in construction), automotive
parts, and other household products. Ethylene is
also used for ethylene glycol, PVC, polyester,
polystyrene, ethanol, vinyl acetate monomer, and
others. Ethane is also used to produce acetic
acid, which itself is used as a chemical
intermediate to form chemicals such as vinyl
acetate monomer, acetic anhydride, terephthalic
acid, ester, and other chemical solvents. Ethane
is used as a refrigerant in cryogenic
refrigeration systems. It also finds application
as a calibration gas mixture to check and
calibrate the laboratory instruments. Growing
polyethylene demand across various industrial
verticals are largely driving the global ethane
market. Increasing use of ethanol as a biofuel is
also contributing significantly to the growth of
the product market. Shale gas boom in the US is
supporting the growth of the global ethane market
positively, since the production of ethane is now
possible at a very competitive cost compared to
the days when primarily naphtha is used.
Furthermore, the growing demand for ethane as a
refrigerant owing to its environmentally friendly
characteristics (reduces ozone depletion and
global warming) compared with typical
refrigerants made of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs),
hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), or hydrochlorofluorocar
bons (HCFCs) is expected to provide growth
impetus to the product during the forecast
period. The biggest opportunity for ethane market
growth is in power generation, where the pricing,
higher heat value, and far less emission content
of ethane competes favorably with LNG.
4Ethane Market - 2023
Market Segmentation The global ethane market has
been segmented by application, end-use industry,
and region. Based on application, the global
ethane market has been segmented into ethylene
synthesis, acetic acid synthesis, refrigerant,
and others. On the basis of end-use industry,
the global ethane market has been categorized
into packaging, automotive transportation,
building construction, electricals
electronics, healthcare, power, and
others. Regional Analysis The global ethane
market has been analyzed with respect to five
regions, namely, Asia-Pacific, North America,
Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East
Africa. Asia-Pacific was the largest and
fastest growing market for ethane in 2018 and is
expected to continue dominating during the
forecast period. the region accounted the share
of 38 by value in 2018. Rapid industrialization
in the region due to lucrative investment
policies, low production cost and inexpensive
labors are largely supporting the growth of
ethane market in the region. Additionally,
growing end-use industries such as packaging,
automotive transportation, building
construction, electricals electronics,
healthcare, power are attributing high demand for
ethane. North America was the second largest
market for ethane in 2018. Growing ethylene
manufacturing facilities to meet the domestic
demand as well as for export purpose is driving
the market growth in the region. Europe was
following North America in terms of market size
in 2018. Developed automotive transportation
industry is ensuring the stable revenue source
for the ethylene and its derivatives, which is
thus fueling the growth of the ethane market.
Furthermore, the electricals electronics are
also supporting largely to the market growth.
