Market Overview:
The global adsorbents market grew at a CAGR of around 8% during 2015-2020. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to exhibit moderate growth during 2021-2026. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
Adsorbents refer to a chemical compound used for filtering atoms, ions and molecules in industrial purification processes. It consists of small uniform-sized pores, pellets, rods and moldings that restrict the passage of large molecules from dissolved solids, liquids and gases. Some of the commonly used adsorbents include activated carbon, molecular sieve, clay, silica gel and activated alumina, which exhibit hydrophilic and nonpolar properties, along with high abrasion resistance and surface capacity for absorption. As a result, they find extensive applications across various industries, including petrochemical, pharmaceutical, chemical and oil and gas.
Significant growth in the chemical industry across the globe represents one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Furthermore, the widespread utilization of adsorbents for oil and gas refining, petroleum refining, air separation and wastewater treatment, are providing a boost to the market growth. Molecular sieves and activated carbon are also extensively used for the purification of hydrocarbons and industrial gases and removing trace contaminants, such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon disulfide, hydrochloric acid, arsine and phosphine, from the hydrocarbon streams. In line with this, the increasing utilization of mineral absorbents for the inhibition of mycotoxins in animal feeds is also contributing to the market growth. Additionally, various product innovations, such as the development of nano- and polymeric adsorbents for efficient and selective wastewater management, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. Chemically modified solid adsorbents are widely used for capturing carbon dioxide and preventing its accumulation in the atmospheric air. Other factors, including rapid industrialization, especially in developing economies, along with the implementation of favorable government policies promoting efficient purification systems, are anticipated to drive the market further.
