The global chlorine market is foreseen to draw a handsome growth owing to well-paid applications such as ethylene dichloride (EDC)/polyvinyl chloride (PVC), aromatics, propylene oxide, isocyanates, and chlorinated intermediaries. Prophesied to account for a higher consumption of chlorine, EDC/PVC could be highly demanded in the prospering construction sector. Asia Pacific is foretold to be a choice market for capacity expansion, taking in view the rising demands from the booming chemicals sector and plastics industry. Increasing residential requirements in India and China could script the growth of business prospects in the market.
The global chlorine market is predicted to rise at a 6.5% CAGR to achieve a US$42.7 bn by the completion of 2022. In 2017, the market earned a US$31.1 bn.
The world chlorine market is prognosticated to see a classification into vinyls, organic chemicals, water treatment, and chlorinated intermediates, as per the segmentation by end use. By the end of the forecast period, vinyls could account for a king’s share in the market while earning a revenue of US$19.5 bn. On an annual basis, this end-use segment is estimated to expand at a US$1.0 bn between 2017 and 2022. The absolute growth garnered by the segment could be greater than any other in the same segmentation class. The dominance of vinyls in the market could be witnessed throughout the course of the forecast period.
A proper study of various segmentations of the world chlorine market is envisioned to play an important role in the advancement of players in the foreseeable future. Buyers of the report could be able to understand the growth of each critical segment in advance and accordingly prepare their strategies for future progress in the market.
On the basis of regional segmentation, the international chlorine market is anticipated to award Asia Pacific except Japan (APEJ) for its matchless revenue growth in the coming years. By 2022 end, the region could rake in a US$23.0 bn. It is envisaged to be one of the most lucrative regions for the market. The dominance of APEJ could continue to take shape even until the final forecast year.
Next on the list of most attractive markets for chlorine could be North America with a US$7.4 bn approximated to be earned by 2022. Japan is projected to expand at a CAGR of 6.1%, which could be close to that of North America. With an absolute revenue prospect of US$1.2 bn expected to be achieved during the forecast timeframe, Europe could be another region to look out for favorable opportunities. However, the Middle East and Africa (MEA) is forecasted to showcase a sluggish growth in the near future.
Some of the leading companies operating in the worldwide chlorine market could be Ercros S.A, Olin Corporation, BASF SE, PPG Industries, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, FMC Corporation, Hanwha Chemical Corporation, Ineos Group Ltd., Tata Chemicals Ltd., and Tosoh Corporation.
Extensive Use in Several Chemical Processes to Benefit Global Chlorine Market
Chlorine is utilized as a raw material in a wide variety of chemical applications. It is also a necessary material in the manufacturing of PVC, which is in high demand in the packaging, automotive, and construction industries. The global chlorine market is expected to be driven by these factors. The rising demand for chlorine in numerous industrial applications for the production of various intermediate products such as chlorides, hydrochloric acid, and other chemicals is anticipated to fuel growth of the market.
The continuing global pandemic, as well as the accompanying guidelines designed to resolve public health and safety issues, has resulted in an increase in demand for disinfectant products. Companies all over the world are increasing production to meet the unexpected surge in demand from individual households, municipal authorities, grocery stores, and healthcare organizations.
Demand to Gather Momentum from High Use of Chlorine in the Water Treatment Process
Chlorine derivatives are often utilized in metal separation, organic and inorganic chemicals, disinfection, bleaching, and among other things. Chlorine is widely regarded as a powerful disinfectant that is commonly utilized in the process of water treatment. Demand for chlorine in water treatment is projected to increase as the industrial water treatment industry and residential sector are set to expand. In the papermaking process, caustic soda from the chlorine industry is utilized to pulp wood chips. Chlorine compounds also find use in the bleaching of wood and paper pulp. As a result, the expansion of the paper industry is anticipated to push the global chlorine market forward.
In the agriculture industry, different inorganic chlorides are also utilized. Phosphorus and sulphur chlorides, for example, are required as intermediates in agrochemicals like herbicides and pesticides. Such extensive use of the chemical is anticipated to support growth of the global chlorine market in the years to come. Volatility in price, owing to inconsistent demand and supply, are anticipated to be an obstacle for major industry players in the Asia Pacific region. When chlorine is exposed to other substances, it becomes extremely reactive, increasing the possibility of mishandling. Chlorine's toxicological effects contribute to difficulties of the market.
