Posted May 13, 2019 by srushtih

Major market participants have focused on R&D activities to provide white spirits with low aromatic content to attain a sustainable advantage over the competition.
 
According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, White Spirits Market by Product and Application: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2017-2023, the global white spirits market was valued at $5,360 million in 2016, and is estimated to reach $7,671 million by 2023, registering a CAGR of 5.3% from 2017 to 2023. In 2016, the type 3 segment is anticipated to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period.

White spirit is a mixture of saturated aliphatic & alicyclic C7-C12 hydrocarbons containing 15-20% aromatic C7-C12 hydrocarbons (by weight) and exhibiting a boiling range of 130-230C. There are three different types and grades of white spirits. The classification based on type depends on whether the solvent is subjected to only hydrodesulfurization (type 1), solvent extraction (type 2), or hydrogenation (type 3). The hydrodesulfurized type contains less than 25% aromatic hydrocarbon, the solvent extracted white spirit contains less than 5%, while the hydrogenated contains less than 1%.

Each type comprises three different grades: low flash grade (flash point: 21-30C and initial boiling point: 130-144C), regular flash grade (flash point: 31-54C and initial boiling point: 145-174C), and high flash grade (flash point: >55C and initial boiling point: 175-200C). The type 0 white spirit is defined as a distillation fraction with no further treatment, consisting predominantly of saturated C9-C12 hydrocarbons with a boiling range of 140-220C.
