Market Overview:
The global industrial grade sulphur market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for sulphuric acid in various applications such as fertilizer, chemical processing, and others. In addition, the growing demand for rubber and pesticides is also propelling the growth of the global industrial grade sulphur market. On the basis of type, 99.95% grade accounted for a major share of the global industrial grade sulphur market in 2017. This can be attributed to its high purity and superior quality compared to other grades available in the market. On account of its properties such as low reactivity and non-toxicity, it is extensively used in fireworks and explosives industry across different regions globally.
Product Definition:
Sulphur is an essential plant nutrient and is used in many agricultural and industrial applications. It is a necessary component of fertilizers, helps to improve the soil's structure, assists with nutrient uptake by plants, and can be used as a pesticide. Sulphur also has important industrial uses, such as in the production of sulfuric acid and other chemicals.
Sulfur Content(99.95%):
Sulfur is a chemical element that is found in the earth's crust in both organic and inorganic forms. The most common form of sulfur is known as oleum, which occurs naturally as oil shale. Sulfur-bearing minerals include iron sulfide, gypsum, pyrite, chalcocite and molybdenite.
Sulfur Content(99.5%):
Sulfur content (99.5%) is used in the production of industrial grade sulfur. It is a yellow crystalline solid and has a suffocating odor. Sulfur content 99,5% can be produced by the thermal decomposition of oleum at approximately 800oC under an atmosphere of pressure within a period ranging from 1 to 10 minutes depending upon the scale of production desired and capacity installed by industry players respectively.
Application Insights:
The global industrial grade sulfur market is segmented by application into fireworks and explosives, sulfuric acid, medicine, dye, pesticide rubber and other applications. The others application segment includes matches and ignitors for firecrackers. Sulfuric acid dominated the overall market in terms of revenue share in 2017 owing to its wide-spread use as a chemical intermediate in various industries such as oil & gas processing plants; pharmaceuticals; pulp & paper mills; water treatment plants among others.
Sulphuric acid is used directly or indirectly (by means of another compound)in the manufacture of fertilizers which are majorly used for agricultural purposes to enhance crop yield. Fertilizer manufacturers require large volumes of raw materials including crude oil along with tons of chemicals that contain Sulphur (SO2).
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific accounted for the largest share of over 40% in 2017. Asia Pacific is a major sulfur producing region due to high production of crude oil and natural gas, which are extensively used in the manufacturing process as raw material. China is one of the leading producers and consumers of sulfur across Asia Pacific owing to its extensive use in firework manufacturing, acid processing, rubber compound production, pesticide manufacturing among others.
North America emerged as the second-largest regional market accounting for a share of over 25%in 2017 on account rising demand from end-use industries such as dyes & pigments; rubber; pesticides & crop protection; medicines among others.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for fertilizers in agriculture sector
- Growing population and their demand for food
- Rising awareness about benefits of using sulphur in agriculture sector
- Government initiatives to promote the use of industrial grade sulphur in agriculture sector
- Technological advancements that have made production of industrial grade sulphur more efficient
