Market Overview:
The global alum market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the alum market can be attributed to the increasing demand for water treatment and pharmaceutical applications. Alum is used as a flocculant in water treatment plants, which helps in the removal of suspended solids from water. It is also used as an adjuvant drug in various pharmaceutical formulations owing to its astringent and antiseptic properties. Furthermore, rising demand for processed food products has led to an increase in the use of alum as a food additive for imparting desired textural and sensory properties.
Product Definition:
Alum is a mineral that is used in water treatment, fire retardants and as a food additive. Alum is important because it helps to clarify water by causing aluminum sulfate to form small clumps that fall to the bottom of the container. It also helps to retard fires by forming a protective barrier on combustible materials.
Powder:
Powder is a natural mineral, which has high alumina content. It can be produced through two methods; either through fusion or thermal decomposition of ore. Powder is used in various end-use industries such as paints & coatings, plastics, rubber processing and paper manufacturing among others. The growth factor for powder usage in alum production depends on the availability of raw material and market conditions at any particular time.
Alumina contains aluminum.
Granules:
Granules are the dried, roasted and ground up kernels of a fruit. The most common types of granules used in alum production include those from sycamore, beech, oak and maple trees. Granules have different particle sizes; the average particle size for alum is around 0.8-1mm which varies depending upon the source of raw material (maple or oak).
Application Insights:
The global alum market is segmented on the basis of application into water treatment, pharmaceutical, food and others. The water treatment application led the market in 2017 and is projected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing environmental concerns regarding waste disposal along with growing population globally. Moreover, stringent regulations for municipal wastewater management are further expected to drive demand for alum products globally over the coming years.
The product plays a vital role in wastewater management as it helps remove organic materials including pesticides and herbicides that may have entered into surface or groundwater from agricultural or urban sources through leaching or washout processes respectively.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization, coupled with increasing per capita income levels. In addition, growing population and rising demand for food & beverages are expected to drive industry growth over the coming years.
The product demand in Europe was valued at USD X million in 2017 on account of high application scope across several industries including water treatment, pharmaceuticals & healthcare, construction materials among others. Stringent regulations regarding discharge of pollutants into waterways along with stringent laws laid down by European Union (EU) are anticipated to propel industry growth over the next eight years or so.
North America accounted for a significant share of revenue generated by powder type alumina products due to their increased consumption as an anti-corrosive agent across various end-use industries such as automotive.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as construction, automotive and packaging
- Growing demand for lightweight materials in automobiles and aircrafts
- Rising consumption of alumina in the production of aluminum alloys
- Increasing application scope of alumina in water treatment and other industrial processes
- Growing investments by global players to expand their production capacities
