Market Overview:
The global activated alumina spheres market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for activated alumina spheres from various end-use industries, such as refining, air separation, natural gas, petrochemicals and others. In terms of volume, the Φ≤5mm segment is projected to account for a major share of the global activated alumina spheres market during the forecast period. However, in terms of value, the 5mm<Φ≤8mm segment is projected to register higher growth than other segments during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Activated alumina spheres are a type of activated alumina that is used in a variety of industries. It is often used as an adsorbent or filter, and can be found in air filters, water filters, and chemical processing plants.
Φ≤5mm:
Φ5mm is the new term in the market which refers to particles having a mean particle size between 5 and 50 microns. The Activated alumina spheres (AAS) market has been witnessing significant growth over the past few years on account of its increasing demand from various end-use industries such as medical, food & beverages, water treatment, oil recovery and filtration among others.
5mm<Φ≤8mm:
5mm<Φ≤8mm is a type of glass bead that has a diameter of approximately 5 mm and an outer shell or coating of 8 mm. It is used in various applications such as jewelry making, craft materials, interior decorative items like lamps &vases and others. The beads are manufactured by fusing together molten glass during the manufacturing process; therefore it has no chemical composition or additives attached to it.
Application Insights:
Refining emerged as the dominant segment in 2017 and accounted for a revenue share of over 40%. The product is used as an adsorbent in crude oil refining to remove contaminants including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), metals, and volatiles. Rising demand for alumina products from refineries across the world is expected to drive growth over the next few years.
Activated alumina has been gaining popularity as an air separation catalyst due to its high surface area, low cost, and excellent durability. Natural gas processing plants use it on-site to separate nitrogen from natural gas at high pressure without using precious metal catalysts or expensive Zeolite molecular sieves. It also finds application in other industries such as petrochemicals where it acts as a safety valve, heat exchanger material, boiler material & tubeset filler etc.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to witness moderate growth over the forecast period owing to stringent government regulations regarding air and water pollution. Activated alumina spheres are extensively used in wastewater treatment for removal of heavy metals from industrial effluents as they are non-toxic, biodegradable and inexpensive than other commonly used chemicals such as lime or soda ash.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing regional markets during the forecast years on account of rapid industrialization, increasing population, rising per capita income levels coupled with government support for infrastructure development in emerging economies such as China and India. Growing demand for natural gas from China’s rapidly expanding chemical industry will drive product demand over the next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for activated alumina spheres from various end-use industries such as oil & gas, water treatment, and others
- Growing investments in the activated alumina spheres market by key players to expand their production capacities
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using activated alumina spheres among consumers across the globe
- Technological advancements in production processes of activated alumina spheres that would lead to improved quality and performance of products
- Stringent environmental regulations governing emissions from various industrial sectors that would increase demand for activated alumina spheres as a pollution control agent
