DME (Dimethyl Ether) is an organic compound mainly used as aerosol propellant and as a reagent for the production of widely applied compounds as the dimethyl sulfate (a methylating agent) and the acetic acid. For clean-burning alternative fuel for diesel engines and LPG blending, the Dimethyl ether is used commonly. Dimethyl ether is also utilized as propellent in aerosol products as it has lower toxicity it is considered to be environmentally friendly.

Report Highlights:

Dimethyl ether market size is accounted for USD 9.4 Billion in 2025.

Target market size is estimated to be valuated at USD 19.4 Billion by 2035 and at a registered CAGR of 8.3 %.

By Raw Material, the Methanol segment is projected to dominate the Dimethyl Ether Market.

By Application, the LPG blending segment is expected to influence the dimethyl ether market share on global scale.

By end-user segment, the automotive is the end user ruling over the dimethyl ether market share.

Key Highlights:

• In March 2025, the ISCC PLUS certification was announced by Nouryon for producing green DME at its Rotterdam facility for its commitment to sustainability, enabling customers to reduce their carbon footprints without compromising on quality.
• In July 2024, the Herbig Ae star MWC 480 using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has detected dimethyl ether (CH?OCH?) in the disk. This marks the first detection of CH?OCH? in a non-transitional Class II disk, providing insights into the chemical evolution of the interstellar medium and the origin of organic materials in our Solar System.

Report Analysis:

Trends in Dimethyl Ether Market:

The major power generation and transportation opportunity as a low-carbon alternative to conventional fuels is presented by dimethyl ether. Dimethyl ether can replace diesel for heavy-duty trucks, buses, and marine vessels. DME is ideal for usage of gas turbines and fuel cells for power production due to its high combustion efficiency and minimal environmental footprint. Dimethyl ether has ability to blend with propane to produce low-carbon fuel alternatives for vehicle fleets.
