Bio-succinic Acid Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post-COVID-19 era. The volatility in crude oil prices is notably driving the bio-succinic acid market growth, although factors such as the high price of bio-succinic acid may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the bio-succinic acid industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Bio-succinic Acid Market Driver

One of the key factors driving the bio-succinic acid market is the volatility in crude oil prices. The consumption of bio-succinic acid by several application areas, including BDO, plasticizers, and PBS, is influenced by changes in the price of crude oil. To lessen the risks related to the volatility of crude oil prices, succinic acid producers are concentrating on employing naturally renewable resources as raw materials. Additionally, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and maleic anhydride are used in the chemical production of succinic acid in industrial settings. The price of petroleum products is directly impacted by volatility or a rise in crude oil prices. The COVID-19 pandemic's occurrence in 2020, according to the EIA, caused a sharp decline in global oil consumption. As a result, Brent crude oil spot prices decreased from $64.37 per barrel in 2019 to $34.13 per barrel in 2020. Furthermore, EIA also expects crude oil prices to fluctuate through 2023. Furthermore, fluctuations in crude oil prices, changing currency rates, imports and exports, and a decline in production capacity all have a direct impact on the supply and demand for petrochemical raw materials. Because there are so many bio-based feedstocks available, manufacturers are switching from petrochemical- to bio-based products.

Key Bio-succinic Acid Market Trend

Shift to biodegradable polymers is another factor supporting the Bio-succinic Acid market growth in the forecast period. The demand for biodegradable polymers has been steadily increasing as a result of worries about plastic pollution and the need for sustainable substitutes for polymers generated from petroleum. To produce polyurethanes (PUs) and polyurethane dispersions, bio-succinic acid is frequently employed (PUDs). This acid's components are entirely renewable, and it is used to make PU, which is a component of specialty foams, coatings, adhesives, and elastomers. It is possible to create PUs in a way that uses less energy and produces fewer carbon emissions. Biodegradable and widely utilized in the polymer sector are bio-based polymers. The use of biodegradable plastics and polymers is driven by factors like R&D activity, environmental awareness, and the enforcement of strict environmental legislation. Therefore, it is anticipated that throughout the forecast period, the growing demand for bio-succinic acid to make biopolymers would positively affect the global bio-succinic acid market.

Key Bio-succinic Acid Market Challenge

The high price of bio-succinic acid will be a major challenge for the bio-succinic acid market during the forecast period. The high cost of bio-succinic acid is a significant obstacle to the expansion of the market in question. The high cost of processing succinic acid and the drawn-out extraction procedure provides significant difficulties for producers of bio-succinic acid, even though the raw ingredients needed to make it are renewable. Advanced technologies are needed for the large-scale commercial production of succinic acid from biomass for the chemical sector. Additionally, maintaining the ideal pH range for the microorganism's fermentation process and selecting the right base to neutralize the acid has a significant impact on the overall cost of producing bio-succinic acid. The cost of production is directly influenced by the affordability of raw feedstocks.
