Bio-Butanol Price Trend H2 2023

Asia

The uptrend in bio-butanol prices in Asian countries during the third quarter was based on the disruptions in the supply chains and elevated costs of feedstock materials. In the demand sector, the downstream industries were able to maintain healthy procurement rates during the aforementioned period, which gave the bio-butanol market an additional boost.

The positive sentiments in the market prevailed till the middle of the last quarter as the maintenance shutdown of a number of production plants lowered the inventory levels, but towards the end of the quarter, the depreciated cost of feedstock materials and the influx of overseas imports led to the southward's movement of bio-butanol price trend.

Europe

Moving opposite to the Asian countries, the European region witnessed a slight decline in the bio-butanol price trend throughout the H2 of 2023. The traders noticed a significant contraction in the purchasing activities of the consumers and the pessimistic attitude of the downstream industries. In addition to the subdued demand, the market also bore the consequences of a significant reduction in production costs due to a decline in the prices of propylene and other essential commodities.

North America

Like European countries, the bio-butanol price trend in North America also adopted a bearish trend as the market fundamentals worked antagonistically to the bio-butanol prices. The diminished demand from the end user industries and robust production led to the rise in inventory levels, which prompted the traders to adopt destocking practices. Further, a remarkable decline in the cost of crude oil and crucial raw materials caused the production costs to decline significantly and lower the price trend of bio-butanol.

We have been working with Procurement Resource for over two years now. These guys can provide data for any market in any country. I have given them numerous challenging assignments to work upon and have been quite impressed with their approach and results.

Large Indian Conglomerate and a known FMCG Brand Procurement Manager

When we started our Betaine manufacturing operations in Brazil, we were struggling to identify suppliers and benchmark our procurement costs vs other players already in the market. Procurement Resource helped us understand the market in Latin America, the key suppliers, how others were getting products, and even helped us in negotiating prices.

I would like to recognize quality of work done by your team on VIP (Value Improvement Program) for Purplle Private brand Packaging portfolio. Your team helped us in identifying right suppliers, collected Vendor related data, floating inquiry, price comparison+benchmarking. This has helped us achieve a significant cost saving.

Asia

Asian Bio-Butanol prices witnessed fluctuating price patterns throughout the first half of 2023. Prices mostly wavered on the higher end of the curve. Bio-Butanol is sourced from feedstock crops like wheat and corn. Corn prices remained high swinging in the Asia Pacific as the Black Sea agreement between Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, and the United Nations ended after the first quarter of this year.

Further, the disruptions in agriculture sectors because of disturbed rainfall patterns also hindered the corn and wheat supplies. Overall, the prices dwelled high for Bio-Butanol in the Asian region as the production costs inclined because of rising feedstock prices.

Europe

European region behaved in an oscillating manner for the Bio-Butanol prices, as good harvest season in America ensured supplies in the first quarter, so the Bio-Butanol prices had a dim start in January 2023. But from the middle of the second quarter, the termination of the Black Sea agreement started affecting the European market. Feedstock wheat and corn prices kept riding high, pushing the price trend for Bio-Butanol up.

North America

The North American Bio-Butanol market witnessed mixed price trend in H1 2023. In Q1, prices declined because of good harvests and added supplies from Ukraine. But as the European supplies curtailed the following quarter, prices started ramping up as more supplies were diverted for food. Hence, the Bio-Butanol prices kept on an inclined trajectory in Q2.

Bio-Butanol Production Processes

  • Production of Bio-Butanol from Biomass Feedstock via Fermentation

Simple sugars in bio-mass feedstock produce bio-butanol using the fermentation process, otherwise known as the Acetone Butanol Ethanol (ABE) process. Under anaerobic conditions, a microbial species, Clostridium acetobutylicum bacterium, is employed to create bio-butanol with ethanol and acetone as byproducts.
