Toluene
demand in India is projected to cross 923 thousand tonnes
by 2030 growing at a healthy CAGR, on account of increasing
consumption in the manufacturing of Benzene and Xylene for its use in
production of plastics, fibers, dyes, detergents and drugs etc. Toluene has the
capability to dissolve several organic compounds and hence it is gaining
popularity as solvent in paints, lacquers, thinners, glues, correction fluid
and nail polish remover. Toluene being a major by - product in the
manufacturing process of Styrene, has applications in the production of Toluene
diisocynate for further manufacturing of Polyurethane which is further used in
the manufacturing of foams for furniture, seats etc. Toluene is also used in
manufacture of Trinitrotoluene (TNT) which is used in small quantities for making
explosives. With the increasing demand of cleaner and better fuels for
automobiles, Toluene is used as an ingredient to produce better quality fuel by
using it in the blending of petrol.
Currently, Reliance Industries, Indian Oil Corporation Limited and Bharat
Petroleum Corporation Limited are three major Toluene manufacturers in India.
India is also dependent on countries such as Singapore, Thailand, United Arab
Emirates etc. for the import of Toluene; thus, with the increasing demand of Toluene in the domestic market and no
expansion plans by major manufacturing industries in India, import of Toluene
is expected to increase in the coming years.
