Specialty Fuel Additives Market Size, Market Share, Application Analysis, Regional Outlook, Growth Trends, Key Players, Competitive Strategies and Forecasts, 2022 To 2030

Key Market Insights

The global specialty fuel additives market accounted for US$ 7.54 Bn in 2021 and is anticipated to grow to US$ 11.84 Bn growing at a CAGR of 5.8% throughout the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.

The rising emphasis to produce clean energy and fuels without compromising the efficiency coupled with rising awareness about conservation of resources and sustainable development are some of the major factors driving the specialty fuel additives market growth. A combination of factors including growing automotive industry, degrading quality of crude oil, and stringent regulatory norms among other are factors proliferating the demand of the global market. The increasing toxin levels across the globe as a result of fuel used in vehicles adversely affects the environment which in turn is having a positive influence on the growth of specialty fuel additives market. Specialty fuel additives helps curb emission of harmful gases and helps in enhancing efficiency of other products such as gasoline, diesel, other fuels.

In addition, the rising trend in North America and Europe to achieve cold flow performance by blending biodiesel and additives is anticipated to drive the demand of specialty fuel additives market. For instance, the US Environmental Protection Act (EPA) has made it mandatory for all heavy vehicles to use cleaner diesel with less sulfur content which is possible by applying cold flow improvers. This in turn is driving the demand of specialty fuel additives market. Apart from this increasing consumption of ethanol is also likely to further boost the demand of specialty fuel additives market. The use of corrosion inhibitors for protecting fuel distribution and storage in automobiles are expected to bolster the market growth.

Product Analysis

Based on product, the specialty fuel additives market is classified into cetane improvers, antioxidants, deposit control additives, lubricity improvers, cold flow improvers, and others (corrosion inhibitors). Deposit control additives segment dominated the market with a share of more than 20% and is expected to grow at a rapid pace. Owing to rising use of detergents as fuel supplements, prevention of deposit formation in the injector nozzle and rising demand for fuel efficient automobiles are factors fueling the demand of the segment.

In contrast, cold flow improvers segment anticipated to expand rapidly throughout the forecast period. Demand for cold flow improvers is mainly driven due to North America and Europe region as there is a high demand of ultra-low sulfur diesel which can be attained by using cold flow improvers.

Application Analysis

On the basis of application, the global specialty fuel additives market is further classified into aviation fuel, diesel, gasoline and others. In 2021, diesel segment dominated the specialty fuel additives market and accounted for the maximum share of overall market. The growth in the segment can be attributed to high consumption of diesel globally especially in the emerging economies such as India, China, and Indonesia among others. Diesel is more environmentally hazardous than other materials which in turn presents lucrative opportunities to specialty fuel additives market.

In contrast, increasing use of gasoline majorly in the US and China is anticipated to fuel the demand of gasoline segment in the years to come. However, increasing popularity of diesel over other fuels hampers the market growth of gasoline segment.

Regional Analysis

In 2021, North America region led the global specialty fuel additives market and contributed more than 30% of revenue generated globally. This can be attributed to, product innovation in terms of quality, and stringent environmental regulations among others. The US accounted for a share of more than 75% of the North America revenue share. This is due to the market being highly regulated by the US Environmental Protection Agency which monitors and provides guidelines of fuel additive products.

In contrast, Asia Pacific region is projected to witness highest growth. Owing to the rapid industrialization and huge demand from various end use industries including construction, power generation and automotive among others. Apart from this implementation of stringent regulations for emission control in China, India and Japan among others are further bolstering the market growth in the region
