Methane is a colorless and odorless gas that is made up of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. It is produced by various natural processes such as anaerobic decomposition of organic matter, volcanic activity, and methane oxidation by microorganisms. It is a clean-burning fuel with several advantages, such as it produces fewer greenhouse gases and pollutants than other fossil fuels like coal and oil. Additionally, methane is relatively abundant, with significant reserves found in natural gas deposits across the globe. It has a wide range of uses, including as a fuel for heating and electricity generation, as a feedstock for producing different chemicals, and as a refrigerant in industrial processes. It is also used as a fuel for transportation, particularly in compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles. Currently, there are two main types of product variants: biogenic and thermogenic. Biogenic methane is produced by the anaerobic decomposition of organic matter, while thermogenic methane is formed by geological processes, such as the heating and compression of organic-rich sediments.
The growing demand for natural gas represents one of the primary factors boosting the market growth. Additionally, governments of various nations are seeking to transition away from fossil fuels, which, in turn, has surged the demand for methane as a clean alternative energy source. Moreover, the expansion of shale gas production, the growth of the chemicals and plastics industries, and the increasing use of methane as a feedstock for hydrogen production are acting as other growth-inducing factors. In line with this, the surging environmental concerns and regulations related to methane emissions have compelled key players to introduce novel production methods to reduce their carbon footprint and improve sustainability, which is further accelerating the market growth. Apart from this, the rising use of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, and rapid technological advancements are creating a positive outlook for the market.
