IAL Consultants is pleased to announce the publication of the new edition of its study on the markets for Thermal Insulation Products in Europe.

Built upon IAL’s expertise in the global thermal insulation markets, the study details demand for 2012 and provides anticipated market figures for 2017. Growth rates are presented and market rankings (or market shares where available) of Europe’s leading insulation companies are indicated, by both country and product type. Market influences and trends are outlined.

The report covers 27 countries (including all major European thermal insulation markets) split into 14 individual country volumes covering all of the most commonly used insulation materials. An additional 4 volumes focus on a specific insulation material individually (mineral fibre, EPS, XPS & PU/PIR) and present data for the regions of Western and Eastern Europe, and then for the same 27 countries.

Buyers of the full study (all volumes) will receive IAL’s specially compiled Executive 
Summary Volume free of charge.

Enhanced Oil Recovery Market - Global Forecast, Share, Trends, Size, Growth, And Industry Analysis, 2012 - 2018
By - Transparency Market Research
Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is a term for the techniques used for boosting oil recovery by injecting chemicals, gas, or steam to force more oil from an aged field. EOR is also called tertiary recovery or improved oil recovery. On an average, 70% to 75 % of the oil remains trapped in reservoirs because it is too difficult to extract, so by using EOR, about 30 to 60 % of the reservoir's original oil can be extracted. EOR has the capability to increase oil recovery up to 75%, although it is expensive to use in an oil field. Currently three methods of EOR are used - gas injection,...

Palm Methyl Ester Market - Global Industry Size, Market Share, Trends, Analysis, And Forecasts 2012 - 2018
By - Transparency Market Research
Palm methyl ester is a base used for producing biodiesel. It is produced from palm oil in a chemical process is known as transesterification. Methanol acts as a catalyst to convert palm oil to methyl ester. Palm oil cannot be directly used as engine oil due to higher viscosity than that of petroleum products. It is first converted to smaller molecules of methyl ester before being used  as a diesel fuel. Palm methyl ester is a ready substitute for diesel. It is successfully tested and used as fuel for power stations and passenger cars. Increasing use of this substitute...
