根據 Stratistics MRC 的數據,全球脂肪酸甲酯 (FAME) 市場規模預計在 2024 年達到 175.2 億美元,到 2030 年將達到 238.4 億美元,預測期內的複合年成長率為 6.5%。

脂肪酸甲酯 (FAME) 是指透過酯交換過程由脂肪酸衍生的一組化合物,在此過程中脂肪酸與甲醇反應形成甲酯。 FAME 具有可再生和生物分解性的特點,且燃燒性能更清潔,與傳統石化燃料相比,有助於減少溫室氣體排放。

研究報告稱,椰子油富含飽和脂肪酸,其中短鍊和中鏈脂肪酸佔飽和脂肪酸的70%。

可再生能源需求不斷成長

FAME 是生物柴油的關鍵成分,生物柴油是石化燃料的更清潔的替代品。隨著各國努力減少碳排放和應對氣候變化,政府正在推出政策和指令來增加可再生燃料的使用,從而促進生物柴油的消費。 FAME 源自植物油和動物脂肪等可再生原料,透過提供環保能源來源滿足永續性目標。對清潔能源解決方案的需求不斷成長,推動了全球交通、工業和能源領域 FAME 的生產和應用。

儲存和運輸挑戰

FAME 面臨儲存和運輸方面的挑戰,因為它的高黏度會導致燃料管線和設備堵塞。此外,FAME具有吸濕性,會導致微生物生長和腐蝕。這些問題需要特殊的基礎設施來處理、儲存和運輸,這增加了成本。可互換的儲存槽、管道和維護的需求使物流變得複雜,阻礙了市場成長。

政府措施和補貼

世界各國政府,特別是北美、歐洲和亞洲等地區的政府,正在實施可再生燃料標準和授權,例如美國可再生燃料標準 (RFS)。這些政策鼓勵使用FAME製成的生物柴油,支持更清潔的能源解決方案並減少溫室氣體排放。對生物柴油生產商的補貼和稅收激勵使得FAME與傳統燃料相比具有成本競爭力,加速了其在交通、工業和能源領域的應用,從而支持了市場成長。

生產成本高

脂肪酸甲酯 (FAME) 的生產成本很高,原因如下,包括原料(植物油和動物脂肪)價格昂貴、酯交換過程耗能、催化劑的使用等。此外,原料價格的波動和對專用設備的需求也導致FAME的生產成本高。這些不斷上升的成本使得FAME與傳統石化燃料相比缺乏競爭力,限制了其廣泛應用。

COVID-19 的影響

由於供應鏈中斷、運輸燃料需求下降以及停工導致生質柴油生產停止,COVID-19 疫情嚴重影響了脂肪酸甲酯 (FAME) 市場。經濟放緩導致燃料消耗下降,影響了由FAME製成的生物柴油的需求。然而,隨著經濟復甦,市場開始復甦,這得益於日益成長的環境問題、政府對可再生能源的支持以及日益轉向永續的石化燃料替代品。

預計在預測期內酯交換部分將成為最大的部分。

預計酯交換部分將在整個預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率。酯交換是生產脂肪酸甲酯(FAME)的主要方法。使用氫氧化鈉或氫氧化鉀等催化劑使植物油或動物脂肪與甲醇反應。該工藝由於在生物柴油生產中的效率和成本效益而被廣泛應用。

預計預測期內化妝品和個人護理領域將以最高的複合年成長率成長。

由於化妝品和個人護理產品具有潤膚、保濕和皮膚調理等功效,預計在預測期內該領域將以最高的複合年成長率成長。脂肪酸甲酯(FAME)源自天然油脂,常見於乳霜、乳液和護髮產品中,可改善質地、提高皮膚吸收率,提供光滑、不油膩的效果。 FAME生物分解性且環境友好,適合用於天然和永續的配方。

比最大的地區

預計亞太地區將在預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率,這主要得益於對生物柴油作為石化燃料的環保替代品的需求不斷增加。在政府鼓勵推廣可再生能源和減少碳排放的推動下,中國、印度和印尼等主要國家已成為主要生產國和消費國。該地區龐大的農業部門提供了棕櫚油、大豆和痲瘋樹等豐富的原料。此外,能源價格上漲和環保意識增強進一步加速了運​​輸和工業領域對基於FAME的生物柴油的應用。

複合年成長率最高的地區:

由於對可再生燃料的需求不斷成長以及政府對生物柴油的使用要求,預計北美將在預測期內見證最高的複合年成長率。美國和加拿大是主要參與者,其可再生燃料標準 (RFS) 等政策鼓勵使用基於 FAME 的生物柴油。該區域致力於減少溫室氣體排放和對石化燃料的依賴,並正在推動永續能源來源的轉變。此外,北美農業生產提供了豐富的大豆油和動物脂肪等原料,支持了FAME市場的成長。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) Market is accounted for $17.52 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $23.84 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) refers to a group of chemical compounds derived from fatty acids through a process called transesterification, where the fatty acids are reacted with methanol to form methyl esters. FAME is known for its renewable, biodegradable, and cleaner-burning properties, contributing to reduced greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional fossil fuels.

According to a study report, Coconut oil is a rich source of saturated fatty acids, and short- and medium-chain fatty acids account for 70% of these fatty acids.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growing demand for renewable energy sources

FAME is a key component of biodiesel, a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels. As countries strive to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change, governments have introduced policies and mandates to increase the use of renewable fuels, boosting biodiesel consumption. FAME, derived from renewable feedstocks like vegetable oils and animal fats, meets sustainability goals by providing an eco-friendly energy source. This rising demand for cleaner energy solutions drives FAME production and adoption in transportation, industrial, and energy sectors globally.

Restraint:

Storage & transport challenges

FAME faces storage and transport challenges due to its higher viscosity, which can lead to clogging in fuel lines and equipment. Additionally, FAME is hygroscopic, leading to potential microbial growth and corrosion. These issues require specialized infrastructure for handling, storage, and transportation, increasing costs. The need for compatible storage tanks, pipelines, and maintenance adds complexity to the logistics, thereby hampering market growth.

Opportunity:

Government initiatives and subsidies

Governments worldwide, particularly in regions like North America, Europe, and Asia, have implemented renewable fuel standards and mandates, such as the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) in the U.S. These policies encourage the use of biodiesel made from FAME, supporting cleaner energy solutions and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Subsidies and tax breaks for biodiesel producers make FAME more cost-competitive with conventional fuels, accelerating its use in transportation, industry, and energy, thus boosting market growth.

Threat:

High production costs

Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) has high production costs due to several factors, including the expensive feedstocks (vegetable oils and animal fats), energy-intensive transesterification process, and the use of catalysts. Additionally, fluctuations in raw material prices and the need for specialized equipment further contribute to its high production cost. These elevated costs make FAME less competitive compared to traditional fossil fuels, limiting its widespread adoption.

Covid-19 Impact

The covid-19 pandemic significantly impacted the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) market by disrupting supply chains, reducing demand for transportation fuels, and halting biodiesel production due to lockdowns. Economic slowdowns led to lower fuel consumption, which affected the demand for biodiesel made from FAME. However, as economies recover, the market is seeing a rebound, driven by increasing environmental concerns, government support for renewable energy, and a growing shift towards sustainable fuel alternatives to fossil fuels.

The transesterification segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The transesterification segment is predicted to secure the largest market share throughout the forecast period. Transesterification is the primary method used to produce Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME). It involves reacting vegetable oils or animal fats with methanol, using a catalyst such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. The process is widely used due to its efficiency and cost-effectiveness in biodiesel production.

The cosmetics & personal care segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The cosmetics & personal care segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to its emollient, moisturizing, and skin-conditioning properties. FAME, derived from natural oils, is commonly found in creams, lotions, and hair care products, where it enhances texture, improves skin absorption, and provides a smooth, non-greasy finish. FAME's biodegradable and eco-friendly nature makes it a preferred choice for natural and sustainable formulations.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is expected to register the largest market share during the forecast period driven by increasing demand for biodiesel as an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels. Key countries like China, India, and Indonesia are major producers and consumers, driven by government incentives promoting renewable energy and reducing carbon emissions. The region's large agricultural sector provides abundant feedstocks like palm oil, soybeans, and jatropha. Additionally, rising energy prices and environmental awareness are further accelerating the adoption of FAME-based biodiesel in transportation and industrial sectors.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is expected to witness the highest CAGR over the forecast period due to growing demand for renewable fuels and government mandates on biodiesel usage. The U.S. and Canada are key players, with policies like the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) encouraging the use of biodiesel made from FAME. The region's emphasis on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels is driving the shift toward sustainable energy sources. Additionally, North America's agricultural production provides ample feedstocks, such as soybean oil and animal fats, supporting FAME market growth.
