N-butanol is a primary alcohol with a 4-carbon structure and the chemical formula C4H9OH. Its isomers include isobutanol, 2-butanol, and tert-butanol. Butanol is one of the group of “fusel alcohols”, which have more than two carbon atoms and have significant solubility in water. N-butanol occurs naturally as a minor product of the fermentation of sugars and other carbohydrates, and is present in many foods and beverages.
The n-butanol industry is mainly in the United States, Europe, Japan and China, among which the United States is the largest country in the production of butanol. The major producers include BASF, Dow, Oxea, Eastman, Formosa, China Nation Petroleum, Kyowa Hakko, etc. BASF is the largest producer in the world, taking 12.44% in the production share in 2017. Dow Company followed as second producer.
The consumption of n-butanol is mainly in the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific, while Asia-Pacific taking more than 51.84%, United States taking 22.14%. Market of the United States, Europe and Japan n-butanol has matured with excessed capacity, decreasing demand, while for the rest of Asia the demand has rapid growth in demand in recent years.
In Africa, the demand of n-butanol downstream is small. So the producer of n-butanol in Africa, such as Sasol limited, usually exports the n-butanol.
