As industries such as oil & gas, biopharmaceuticals, and textiles drive the need for catalysts and adsorbents, activated alumina emerges as a vital solution, particularly in the Asia Pacific region, which is projected to account for one-third of global consumption.
The global activated alumina industry size is predicted to reach a valuation of USD 1129.6 Million in 2032 with sales growing at a moderate CAGR of 5.8% over the forecast period of 2022 to 2032. In 2022, the activated alumina market is estimated at a value of USD 642.8 Million.
Activated alumina’s high porosity leads to a surge in its utilization for filtration and adsorption purposes. As a result, there’s a notable rise in the demand for activated alumina over the projected period. In addition to this, growing water treatment technologies all over the world are also adopting activated alumina. All these factors are likely to boost the market for activated alumina over the forecast period.
Activated alumina is a dry and granular chemical substance produced by de-hydroxylation. It is used to remove hydroxyl group ions from aluminum hydroxide. This usage culminates in positive market prospects for the product.
Activated alumina is increasingly being adopted in multiple industry verticals such as oil and gas, water industry, chemicals, and many others. It is primarily used in these industries to adsorb and recover sulfur. It is also used for filtration purposes since it actively removes fluorides from water.
Moreover, the need for a dry and moisture-free manufacturing environment of a factory is also expected to contribute to the global market growth of activated alumina. With increasing manufacturing facilities all over the world, the demand for activated alumina from these factories is sure to positively influence the global activated alumina market.
However, there are also certain factors that will likely hamper the growth of the activated alumina market over the assessment period. The market prospects for the application of activated alumina as filters for homes are restrained by its high cost and single use.
The filter needs to be discarded and replaced when the concentration of adsorbed particles increases in the filter. The frequency with which the filter needs to be replaced depends on the amount of water passed through it. This replacement and the high pricing of these filters may negatively impact the market for activated alumina.
“Rising adoption of activated alumina as a filtering and adsorbent agent is expected to stimulate the market growth of activated alumina over the forecast period,” says an FMI analyst.
