Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/49w7lb/syngas_market_and) has announced the addition of the "2013 Report on the International Syngas Market & Derivatives Market - Trends & Forecast to 2018" report to their offering.

The syngas and derivatives market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.7% over the next five years to reach 117,400 MW thermal by 2018. Asia, with its thriving economies and rapidly expanding population, is expected to experience the highest consumption from 2013 to 2018.

The major driving factors of this market are the growing needs for chemicals, fuels, and electricity which can be generated simultaneously to meet the requirements of the increasing population. The other growth driver is the feedstock flexibility of the syngas production process which means that it can be produced either from coal, natural gas, petroleum based products, or biomass/waste. Forthcoming opportunities such as the development of underground coal gasification technology and the utilization of stranded gas reserves indicate promising growth for syngas production. This will lead to decreased dependency on crude oil for the production of various fuels such as gasoline and diesel.

Syngas and its derivatives have a large number of applications that range from fertilizers, chemical intermediates, solvents, water treatment chemicals, transportation fuels, and others. Ammonia, methanol, and hydrogen are the most important syngas derivatives. Ammonia, due to its nitrogen content, is an important source of nutrients for plant growth.
