Tsarin samar da isopropanol yana da wuyar gaske, kuma albarkatun ƙasa suna buƙatar ɗaukar jerin halayen sinadaran da matakan tsarkakewa don samun samfurin da ake so.Gabaɗaya, tsarin samarwa ya haɗa da dehydrogenation, oxidation, hydrogenation, rabuwa da tsarkakewa, da sauransu.

Na farko, n-butane ko ethylene an dehydrogenated don samun propylene.Sa'an nan, propylene yana oxidized don samun acetone.Acetone sai hydrogenated don samun isopropanol.A ƙarshe, isopropanol yana buƙatar ɗaukar matakai na rabuwa da tsarkakewa don samun samfurin mai tsabta.

Bugu da ƙari, ana iya haɗa isopropanol daga wasu albarkatun ƙasa, kamar sukari da biomass.Duk da haka, waɗannan albarkatun ƙasa ba a amfani da su sosai saboda ƙarancin amfanin su da tsada.

Abubuwan da ake amfani da su don samar da isopropanol an samo su ne daga burbushin mai, wanda ba kawai yana cinye albarkatun da ba za a iya sabuntawa ba har ma yana haifar da matsalolin muhalli.Don haka, ya zama dole a samar da sabbin kayan albarkatun kasa da hanyoyin samar da kayayyaki don rage amfani da makamashin mai da gurbatar muhalli.A halin yanzu, wasu masu bincike sun fara gano amfani da albarkatun da ake sabuntawa (biomass) a matsayin albarkatun kasa don samar da isopropanol, wanda zai iya samar da sababbin hanyoyi don ci gaba da ci gaban masana'antar isopropanol.
