Colin A. Houston and Associates, Inc. announces a new study entitled HIGHER ALCOHOLS: MARKET FORECAST TO 2010 Global demand for higher alcohols (C ) will grow at an annual rate of 3.1 percent, from 1.5 million tons in 1998 to 2.1 million tons in 2010. Three major surfactants - alcohol ethoxylates, alcohol ether sulfates and alcohol sulfates - account for 75 percent of higher alcohol consumption, estimated at 1.6 million tons in 2000. These are some of the findings of CAHA s new multiclient study, HIGHER ALCOHOLS: MARKET FORECAST TO 2010. The new alcohol study includes a detailed global analysis of surfactant consumption and reports that worldwide demand has grown 3 percent per year since 1992. The global study details alcohol demand in the major end use segments - Household, Personal Care, Industrial and Institutional, and Industrial Processing Aids by region over the 1992-2010 period. Also included are sections evaluating raw materials, technology, supply, competing materials and environmental issues. The study evaluates manufacturing economics of the various routes to alcohols and finds a compelling story for the advantages to be gained by large scale production. Certainly the lack of scale has been problematic for the smaller oleo alcohol producers who have also suffered from feedstock costs in the last few years. By-products, including glycerine and short chain materials, are especially important for the competitive economics of the alcohol producers. Competition will continue to be cost performance driven within a very broad market in terms of the product types offered. This comprehensive study was completed in May 2000 and is available for immediate delivery. The following pages contain the table of contents and other details.

DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDY Higher alcohols are a complex field with a range of products served by competing economics which are often dependent on diverse by-product credits. Furthermore, markets are frequently complicated by the preferences for different types and cuts of alcohol products. Other key factors include the degree of integration of the producers. Two of the largest oleo alcohol producers are forward integrated into consumer products while many of the synthetic alcohol producers are integrated with feedstocks and surfactants. The market analysis embodies regional trends and developments in formulation by end use in each of the regions and addresses the future impact on higher alcohol consumption over the 2000-2010 period. Issues related to raw material costs, regional consumer preference (e.g., powder vs liquid detergents), consumer health conscious-ness and trends toward milder detergents, and environmental concerns over biodegrability of LABS and APE are among the factors evaluated and impacting current and future alcohol demand. While North America and West Europe will remain the largest markets for higher alcohol, more rapid growth for alcohol demand over the next 10 years will occur in Asia and Other regions. CAHA s in-depth analysis of this increasingly important market is offered as an 800-page report organized into nine chapters. A brief discussion of the main ones follows. Raw Materials The competing feedstocks are reviewed and their supply outlooks are profiled. The lauric oils, coconut and palm kernel, are competing feedstocks for oleo alcohol. The long term supply of coconut has been stagnating while the supplies of palm kernel, a by-product of palm oil manufacture have seen rapid growth. Feedstocks for the petrochemical alcohol routes, such as ethylene and normal paraffin are also reviewed. The pricing situations of the raw materials, which are entering a new dynamic period, are explored and compared. Higher Alcohols Technology A range of manufacturers processes are currently employed for higher alcohol production. These routes are detailed and costs are estimated for both whole cut and midcut alcohol products. The implications for the processes are evaluated on a comparable basis; the takeaway is an understanding of the relative merits of the various processes, and also the kind of cost variation that can take place as a result of changing feed and byproduct values. Regional prices histories are presented. Higher Alcohols Supply 2
A detailed review of production by type of alcohol and by producer is supported by descriptions of producers and their plants. Another feature of this chapter is the analysis of the captive use and merchant sales by producer in the three main regions. Higher Alcohols Demand Demand by region and by direct and derivative end use is presented in alcohol terms. Chain length issues related to demand are also reviewed. Higher Alcohol End Uses A detailed analysis of demand for the major alcohol-based surfactants, e.g., alcohol ether sulfates, and lesser known markets such as methacrylate esters and direct uses for alcohols is presented. The major surfactants account for three quarters of all alcohol usage and these segments are detailed by application area. The derivative producers and alcohol customers are described by region. The chapter also includes tables showing plant locations and capacities of ethoxylators and sulf(on)ators by region for 1999. Surfactant End Markets A surfactant survey provides an understanding of global surfactant markets, discussing formulation issues and other developments affecting alcohol derivatives and competing materials by subsegment and by major country. The historical development and future outlook for these markets is described and surfactant demand by type, by end market and by region is detailed for the period 1992 through 2010. Environmental Issues The safety of alcohol-based surfactants and other materials is reviewed in this chapter that focuses on biodegradability and toxicity. Legislative efforts and testing results and methods are explained along with other less prominent issues. End Use Competition and Conclusions This chapter first discusses global factors of intercompetition among surfactant intermediates, including raw materials, producer integration, and pricing. It then addresses cost performance, environmental and other points of competition between alcohol-based surfactants, linear alkylbenzene sulfonates and other key materials. 3
