Report Description

Demand for n Butanol in India stood at more than 60 KTPA in 2018 and is projected to grow at a healthy CAGR during 2019-2030. n Butanol is used to manufacture plasticizers especially Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) which is used to produce PVC. However, the demand for PVC products is expected to slow down in future. Use of n butanol for the manufacturing of ethers is expected to rise in the coming years, thereby resulting in its increased demand. Additionally, n Butanol is used in few emerging applications like printing inks, rubber chemicals, pharmaceutical industry, adhesives, dyes and varnishes. Furthermore, increasing use of n Butanol in cosmetic industry as a solvent, along with increasing production of API/Alkyl amine from n-butanol would propel demand for n Butanol across India.

As of now, The Andhra Petrochemical Limited is the only company manufacturing oxo alcohols products in India, the company has an annual capacity of 26 KTPA of n Butanol. However, the inhouse production of company is not enough to meet the domestic demand of country, thus a large portion of product is being imported. Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited is also entering the business vertical of oxo alcohols by expanding its Kochi refinery to produce oxo alcohols. BPCL’s n Butanol unit with an annual capacity of 150 KTPA is expected to be completed by the end of 2022. After this plant, the dependency of n Butanol on imports is anticipated to reduce. Domestic production of The Andhra Petrochemical Limited and Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited together will be able to meet the country’s demand in the coming years and can export the product to overseas market as well.
