Market Overview:
The global aluminous soil market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for alumina for metallurgical purposes, cement, refractories, abrasives and water treatment applications. In addition, the growing construction industry in developing countries is also contributing to the growth of the global aluminous soil market. Based on type, below 40%, 40%-50% and above 50% are estimated to account for 43%, 47% and 10%, respectively, of the global aluminous soil market in 2018. Alumina for metallurgical purposes is expected to be the largest application segment of the global aluminous soil market during 2018-2030 owing to its high demand from various end-use industries such as aluminum production and steelmaking.
Product Definition:
Aluminous soil is a type of soil that is high in aluminum content. This type of soil is important for plant growth, as it helps to improve the overall quality and fertility of the soil. Aluminous soils are also known for their ability to resist erosion and help retain water.
Below 40%:
Below 40% is a major factor in the growth of Aluminous Soil market. It's an important mineral for plants, which helps them to grow healthily and fight against diseases. The soil contains many minerals that are essential for plant growth; however, when it comes to absorption of nutrients, there are some deficiencies in the soil which can be fixed by adding below 40%.
40%-50%:
40%-50% is a high-strength liquid fertilizer that contains 40% to 50% of nitrogenous fertilizers. It's major application is in the cultivation of vegetables, fruits and flowers. The product also finds its usage in lawns and turfs for the growth of plants.
The product helps enhance the quality as well as quantity of produce with higher nutritional content, which makes it an essential element for plant growth across various cultivation activities worldwide.
Application Insights:
The application of alumina for metallurgical purposes was the dominant segment in 2017 and accounted for a market share of over 35%. The segment is expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period. Alumina is used as an intermediate product in the production of steel by reducing impurities present in iron ores. It is also used as a fluxing agent, protective coating, and refractory material during manufacturing process at various plants across the globe.
Aluminum Corporation Of China (Chinalco) has been granted approval by both governments to build two new aluminum smelters with an estimated capacity of 20 million tons each over a period of 15 years from 2018 to 2025.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The region comprises major aluminous soil-producing countries, such as China, India, Japan, and Australia. In terms of production capacity, China accounts for a major share in global industry owing to its large deposits of raw material. Moreover, increasing demand from end-use industries coupled with rising investments for mineral processing facilities will drive regional product demand over the coming years.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe which accounted for 24% of total revenue share in 2017 on account of high product consumption particularly from metallurgical applications along with cement sector growth across several economies including Russia and Germany. However; low alumina prices along with stringent environmental regulations are acting as restraining factors for European producers who are now focusing on alternative sources while mining operations continue at a profitable level thus affecting overall production volumes negatively since 2016 (Source: World Steel Association).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for aluminum from end-use industries such as transportation, packaging, and construction is expected to drive the growth of the aluminous soil market over the forecast period.
- Growing awareness about benefits of using aluminous soil in agriculture is projected to fuel the demand for aluminous soil over the next few years.
- Rising investments by key players in research and development activities are likely to propel the growth of this market during the forecast period.
- The increasing use of aluminous soil in horticulture applications is anticipated to create new opportunities for this market during the forecast period.
