Fuel ethanol is the most abundantly used fuel additive in the US as it is currently being added to more than 95% of gasoline used in the country. US is the leading consumer of specialty fuel additives in the world and is expected to maintain its dominance through 2020. Increasing demand for specialty fuel additives, abundant availability of biomass feedstock used for production of biofuels and mandates issued by the US Environment Protection Agency (EPA) on biofuel consumption are expected to drive the demand for fuel additives in the US through 2020.

"The US fuel additives market is expected to witness promising growth over the next five years on account of rising demand for cleaner fuels and growing consumer preference towards fuel efficient vehicles. In particular, the use of fuel additives for application in gasoline is expected to grow in the US over the course of next five years. The consumption of fuel ethanol in gasoline is expected to remain high and account for a major market share. However, anticipated increase in consumption of biofuels blended with diesel oils is expected to further propel the fuel additives market in the US through 2020," said Mr. Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci Research, a research based global management consulting firm.
