Global Dimethyl Ether Market: Insights, Market

Size, Share, Growth, Trends Analysis and Forecast

to 2021
The global dimethyl ether (DME) market was worth $ 4812.7 million in 2014 and it is expected to
reach $ 9313.9 million in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 10.6% from 2016 to 2021. Dimethyl ether
is largely used as a substitute to Liquefied Petroliam Gas (LPG) as a blended fuel. Moreover
excellent thermal efficiency gives dimethyl ether a competitive advantage over other syngas to
products. DME is obtained from fossil fuel including coal and natural gas and bio based
feedstock. Commonly used bio based feedstock includes agricultural waste, black liquor,
garbage and forest waste. DME has emerged as an efficient energy alterative for emerging
markets including China, Brazil and India. China tops the list of consumers of DME worldwide,
owing to which the country has reduced imports of LPG over the past few years. The DME
market in china is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of more than 10% over the period of 2014 to
2021.
The global dimethyl ether market is expected to demonstrate significant growth over the
forecast and currently it is dominated by few market leaders. Key players in the dimethyl ether
market include Royal Dutch Shell PLC, China Energy Ltd, Akzo Nobel NV, Arrtu Group,Ferrostal
GmbH, Oberon Fuels Inc., Korea Gas Corporation, Grillo-Werke AG., Mitsubishi Corporation.
