Catalyst Market by Raw Material (Zeolites, Metals, Chemical Compounds, Enzymes and Organometallic Materials), by Product (Heterogeneous, Homogeneous and Biocatalysts) and by Application (Petroleum Refining, Chemical Synthesis, Petrochemicals & Polymers, and Environmental) - Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast 2022-2030

Market Definition:

Global Catalyst Market size was valued at USD 37.1 billion in 2021 and is predicted to reach USD 55.7 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 4.6% from 2022-2030.

Catalysts are substances that are used in large quantities for accelerating chemical reactions without undergoing physical or chemical changes. These substances enhance the chemical processes while minimizing cost and energy usage. Also, it assists in the production of improved oil fractions for obtaining fuels such as biodiesel, ethanol, natural gas and propane. These substances are used in a wide range of applications such as petrochemical production, petroleum refining, polymer processing, environment protection reactions, and synthesis of bio-chemicals.

Market Dynamics and Trends

Increasing demand for higher-octane fuel along with expansion of oil and gas refineries drive the market growth of catalyst globally. Also, increasing use of catalyst in transportation, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries along with increased production of syngas through catalytic process is expected to drive the growth of catalyst market during the forecast period.

However, fluctuating prices of raw material along with unskilled labour force are the factors restraining the growth of market during the forecast period. On the other hand, increased use of biocatalysts such as rennin, pepsin and trypsin in healthcare R&D is expected to open new opportunities during the forecast period. Moreover, development of biochemicals through catalytic processes provides new prospects to the market players in the near future.

Market Segmentations and Scope of the Study:

Chemical compounds are further sub-classified into peroxide, acid, and amines, & others. Based on the product, the market is bifurcated into heterogeneous and homogeneous. According to the application, the catalyst market is classified into petroleum refining, chemical synthesis, petrochemicals & polymers, and environmental. The petroleum refining is further sub-segmented into FCC, alkylation, hydrotreating, hydrocracking, catalytic reforming, and others. Moreover, chemical synthesis is sub-classified into polyolefins, adsorbents, catalytic oxidation adsorbents, hydrogenation catalysts and chemical catalysts. Additionally, petrochemicals & polymers are sub-categorized into ziegler-natta, reaction initiator, urethane, chromium, and single-site. Furthermore, environmental segment is further classified into light duty vehicles, heavy duty vehicles, and motorcycles. The geographical segment of the advanced ceramics market covers North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World.

Geographical Analysis

Asia-Pacific region holds the lion share of catalyst market and is expected to continue dominating the market during the forecast period. This is attributed to factors such as increasing usage of catalyst in automobile and petrochemical industries. Also, rise in use of catalyst in polymer industry is further expected to drive the catalyst market growth in this region.

However, North America is expected to show a steady rise in the catalyst market due to rise in use of catalyst in crude oil processing. Also, catalyst finds its application in the production of ultra-low sulphur diesel and gasoline that further drive the market growth in this region. Moreover, presence of several market players such as Honeywell Uop, Johnson Matthey, Albemarle Corporation, PQ Corporation, Evonik Industries Ag, Axens, Unicat Catalyst Technologies Inc, Clariant, Nippon Ketjen, Cb & I, Shell Global Solutions, Exxon Mobil Corp, Criterion Catalyst & Technology, Sinopec Catalyst Co., and W.R. Grace & Co contributes towards the market growth.
