06.08.2020 · Posted in Writing and Speaking

The report titled ‘Global Octane Market – Growth, Share, Opportunities, and Competitive Analysis, 2016 – 2024′ offers strategic visions into the global octane market along with the market size (Volume – Billion Gallons and Revenue – US$ Million) and estimates for the duration 2016 to 2024. The said research study covers in-depth analysis of multiple market segments based on compounds, application, and study across different topographies. The report is also inclusive of competitive profiling of the leading octane vendors, and latest developments.

Octane, used as a short form for octane rating was originally determined by mixing a gasoline made entirely of heptane and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane. Octane became popular in the well-known American culture in the mid- and late 1960s, when gasoline companies boasted of ‘high octane’ levels in their gasoline advertisements. Octane rating is used to measure fuels ability to defy knock. Various compounds are added to gasoline for increasing octane number that include ethanol, MTBE, ETBE and methanol. Among them, ethanol accounted for the largest share and is also expected to dominate the global market in the near future. Ethanol can sprint at much larger exhaust gas recirculation rate with higher compression ratios. It has a superior octane rating as compared to petrol which created very fine particulates. The superior the octane rating of fuel the more it is defiant to knocking. Therefore, high demand is reported for ethanol in the market. Increasing demand for octane from the petroleum industry is expected to enhance high growth of global octane market. The global octane market was valued at US$ 55.72 Bn in 2017 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2019 to 2024.
