Detergent Alcohols Market Global Trends, Market Share, Industry Size, Growth, Opportunities and Market Forecast – 20222028

Detergent Alcohols Market was valued at USD 17.8 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8% between 2022-2028. The detergent alcohol process converts fatty acids into non-acidic intermediate methyl esters and hydrogenates them into alcohols. Methanol vapor passes the opposite current to the fatty acid ensuring an almost complete conversion of the fatty acid to the methyl ester. Alcohol – based detergents were more expensive than linear alkyl benzenesulfonate(LAS), the main component of most synthetic detergents. The cost difference seems to be narrowing considerably, and it seems that alcohol-based detergents will replace LAS at a faster rate in the future.

Based on the application, domestic&industrial segments have favorable growth during the forecast period due to their increase in use of nonionic surfactants to inhibit the use of detergents. As investment in the commercial as well as residential sectors increases, the growth of the natural detergent alcohol market is set to drive. An increase in the environment and health concerns the use of natural based detergent alcohol fuels market growth. In the manufacture of raw materials used as natural detergent alcohol is also used as a cleaning and textile cleaning products for surfactants and as an industrial cleaning agent as synthetic alcohol is used.
