According to a new report by UnivDatos, The India Levulinic Acid Market was valued at USD 5 million in 2023 and is expected to grow at a strong CAGR of around 9.95% during the forecast period (2024-2032). One of the leading factors propelling the growth of India’s levulinic acid market is the penchant for sustainability and the grow of biopolymers that seems to be the trend in government policy. In addition, the Indian government has further encouraged the bioeconomy by formulating certain policies such as using renewable raw materials and engineering bioprocesses that produce bio-based chemicals. The impact of such regulatory changes has provided a conducive environment for the upsurge of levulinic acid production in the region.

Growing Demand:

Bio-based chemicals are a growing market due to their less environmental impact as well as reducing the pollution related issues. These are some of the factors due to which government is focusing towards supporting to increase the production capacity of bio-chemical products I order to reduce the dependence on the synthetic chemicals. Additionally, the government has also aligned its efforts towards the industry expansion by the introduction of various policy launch and monetary support to the industry. For instance, in 2024, the Union Government of India announced to launch BioE3 (Biotechnology for Economy, Employment, and Environment) Policy, heralding a transformative shift in India's manufacturing sector. The policy is focused on the expanding the country’s bioeconomy. As per the government India’s bioeconomy stand at USD130 billion in 2024 which is set to reach USD 300 billion by 2030 and would create a major role in improving the carbon emission reduction in the coming years.

Furthermore, many of the industries such as food additive, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, agro-chemical sector are also focusing on usage of sustainable chemicals in their production which would be instrumental to the growing demand for the Levulinic acid in the coming years.

Applications:

Levulinic acid is an efficient, renewable chemical that has found many usages in different industries owing to its eco-friendliness. Example of such applications is in plasticizers, where it is used to manufacture environmentally aware substitutes of conventional oil-based plasticizers – for instance, for PVC resin. This helps control the use of rigid, inflexible plastics.

In the pharmaceutical field, levulinic acid is used as a platform synthesis for APIs and finished dosage forms, especially with antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications. Agricultural uses include development of bio-directed pesticide and herbicide levulinates to promote protective plant agriculture.

Levulinic acid is also utilized in food additives as a flavor enhancer, preservative, and processing aid. In the cosmetic industry, it is used for moisturizing and antioxidant effects. Furthermore, levulinic acid finds application in the production of biofuels and other green chemicals, in line with the expansion of the bioeconomy.

Rising Demand for Green Chemicals:

In the last few years, the need for green chemicals in India has escalated as a result of growing awareness about environmental issues, policies of the government, and trends in sustainability. The rise of the green chemicals market is also reinforced by the increasing demand for eco-friendly and renewable substitutes for their petrochemical-based counterparts. Levulinic acid is one of the bio-based chemicals that has gained prominence due to the rising availability of the raw materials such as agricultural waste and other biomass. It is utilized in various applications such as biofuels, biodegradable plastics, as well as agrochemicals making it a core element of green chemistry in India.

This transition has been facilitated through initiatives taken by the Indian government, such as the encouragement for reliance on solar energy and sustainable practices, encouraging bio-based businesses and waste-to-energy projects. Furthermore, enhanced consumer-centric sustainable product features in particular pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, agriculture among other industries are compelling corporations to embrace green chemical techniques. As India is drastically reducing its carbon footprint, the market for these green chemicals, levulinic acid inclusive, will keep soaring hence making it a strategic sector in the green economy of the country.
