Published February 2022 | 865 pages, 252 figures, 163 tables | Table of contents
The Global Biobased Chemicals and Materials Market Report 2022 provides a 865 page in-depth analysis of biobased and biomass solutions and their utilization in the manufacture of bulk, fine and specialty chemicals, plastics, solvents, polymers, biocomposites and fuels.
Building new value chains through the utilisation of biobased and biomass components for the development of innovative products will accelerate the transition from traditional production technologies to the concept of biorefineries. Developing biobased chemicals, polymers and products in a sustainable manner allows for substantial new business opportunities to use them in existing and novel products
The report covers production methods, production capacities, biorefineries, bio-based chemicals, bioplastics, biopolymers and biobased fuels with profiles of over 600 producers and product developers. The global opportunities offered by the transition to a more sustainable, low waste economy are vast, and the last decade has seen a substantial increase in interest in bio-based chemicals with many drop-in or novel bio-based chemicals being developed and introduced to the market.
