Renewable chemicals or bio-based chemicals are defined as those categories of chemicals, which are synthesized from renewable sources such as agricultural feedstock, agricultural waste, organic waste products, biomass, and microorganisms. Renewable chemicals are categorized as sustainable and environment-friendly chemicals which emits fewer carbon footprints as compared to traditional petro-based chemicals. Some of the most widely available renewable chemicals are lignin, carbohydrates, oils, plant extractives, hemicellulose, cellulose, starch, protein, and others. Such chemicals find application in diverse application bases such as food and beverage, agriculture, textiles, automotive, packaging and others.
In 2021, North America contributed to the largest share in the global renewable chemicals market. The dominance of the renewable chemicals market in this region is primarily attributable to the presence of strong industrial base with prominent manufactures significantly contributing to market growth. High demand of renewable chemicals from applications such as food & beverages, agriculture, textiles, transportation, packaging, and other industries backed by significant growth in end-use industrial bases is stimulating the demand for renewable chemicals in regional market. The rise in investment in manufacturing sector along with growing focus over eco-friendly and sustainable solutions, provides lucrative opportunities for the growth of the renewable chemicals market in North America.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Renewable Chemicals Market
The ongoing pandemic has drastically altered the status of the industrial sector and have negatively impacted the growth of the renewable chemicals market. The implementation of measures to combat the spread of the virus has aggravated the situation and have impacted the growth of several industrial sectors. Industries such as food and beverages, agriculture, textiles, transportation, packaging, pharmaceuticals have been impacted by the sudden distortion in operational efficiencies and disruptions in the value chains attributable to the sudden closure of national and international boundaries. The significant decline in the growth of the several industrial sectors negatively impacted the demand for renewable chemicals in the global market. The disruptions in terms of sourcing of raw materials from suppliers as well as temporarily closures of manufacturing base due to indefinite lockdowns and temporary quarantines have impacted the growth of the market during pandemic period. Nevertheless, as the economies are planning to revive their operations, the demand for renewable chemicals is expected to rise globally. Although the focus over just in time production is another concerning factor hindering market growth. The expanding demand of renewable chemicals across food and beverages, agriculture, textiles, transportation, packaging, pharmaceuticals, and other industries along with significant investment by prominent manufacturers is, expected to drive the growth for renewable chemicals.
Market Insights
Growing Awareness Regarding Renewable Chemicals Backed by Increasing Environmental Concerns
Renewable sciences have been regarded as one of the effective ways to promote the quality of air, water, and soil and contribute to sustainability by commercializing the use of eco-friendly bio-based chemicals in diverse applications. Eco-friendly sustainable renewable chemicals can be sourced from renewable feedstocks such as biomass, agricultural residues or feedstock, and microorganisms with the help of green chemistry synthesis or biorefineries. The governments of several economies have implemented strict regulations related to carbon and greenhouse gas emissions to promote high quality environment. For instance, the European Commission aims to achieve 80% reduction in the carbon emission by 2050 by phasing out ~ 81Mt of carbon dioxide to be used in clinker production. Regulatory bodies, such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals), EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), and European Commission impose strict environment regulations on the production and disposal of petrochemicals. Also, the growing focus of European Union on the establishment of ‘Green Economy’ coupled with its ’20-20-20’ initiative is phasing out the demand for petrochemicals. The reduction in petroleum resources along with political instability in the leading oil producing nations and volatility in the price of petroleum product increase preference for renewable chemicals. Global warming and climate change are creating demand for healthy, green, and clean products. Additionally, the circular economy is creating over US$5.6 trillion worth of novel opportunities for the development of eco-friendly technologies including the technology associated with renewable chemicals. Such collaborative efforts, regulations, and initiatives drive the growth of the renewable chemicals market.
Product Insights
Based on product, the renewable chemicals market is categorized into alcohols, organic acids, ketones, platform chemicals, biopolymers, and others. Biopolymers segment is expected to be the fastest growing segment in the global renewable chemicals market during the forecast period. The expanding demand for green packaging materials coupled with the increasing use of biopolymers in automotive industry is projected to drive the growth of the biopolymers in renewable chemicals market. Biopolymers includes polynucleotides (DNA, RNA), cellulose, chitosan, chitin, starch, proteins, polyesters, pectin, collagen, gelatin, and gluten, among others. They are an innovative and promising alternative to reduce greenhouse gas and toxic emissions, and the use of non-renewable resources. The rising focus toward environment-friendly and sustainable materials is expected to promote the demand for biopolymers.
Application Insights
Based on application, the renewable chemicals market is categorized into food and beverages, agriculture, textiles, transportation, chemical intermediates, packaging, bio-medical & pharmaceuticals and others. In 2021, the transportation segment is dominating the Renewable chemicals market. The biomass, wood chips, crop residues etc. are converted to renewable transportation fuels. The various types of bio-based alcohols like bio-butanol, bioethanol, and bio-methanol are used as fuel in jets. Bioethanol is the most widely used source of energy for transportation. The use of bioethanol is projected to increase significantly in coming years and remain high. This shift toward more bio-ethanol usage will provide more opportunities in future. Methane is another renewable chemical used as transportation fuel and is the major component of compressed natural gas. It is produced from biomass by a biochemical process called anaerobic digestion. Biodiesel is a renewable diesel fuel substitute produced by mixing any natural oil or fat with an alcohol (usually methanol). Different vegetable oils, animal fats, and recycled cooking greases can also be transformed into biodiesel.
A few of the major key players operating in the Renewable chemicals market are BASF SE.; Amyris Inc; DSM.; Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (ADM); and The Dow Chemical Company. These market players are highly focusing on the development of high quality and innovative product offerings.
