Global Refinery Catalyst Market is predicted to grow at more than 2.90% by 2030

Pune, India, May 24, 2017 /MRFR Press Release/- Market research future published a half cooked research report on global refinery catalyst market. The refinery catalyst market is expected to grow over the CAGR of more than 4% during the period 2023 to 2032.

Market Highlights

Increasingly stringent fuel and environmental regulations, heavier crudes and feedstock, and soaring energy demand have created complex, and sometimes conflicting, challenges for refiners operating hydro processing units. In response, many refiners are building new licensed units or revamping their existing facilities. Many refinery catalyst manufacturer provide customers with an optimized hydroprocessing solution from their extensive, leading-edge technology design portfolio. Refining catalyst are a crucial components in the processing of highly valued petrochemicals, gasoline, diesel and other fuels.

Currently, the refinery catalyst market is in the growth stage. This is due to the global increase in energy consumption, rising demand for petroleum derivatives and stringent environmental regulations. However, the diminishing crude oil reserves will hinder the global refinery catalyst growth rate.

The global refinery catalyst market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 2.90% during the forecast period.

Market Research Analysis

FCC catalyst segment by type in global refinery catalyst is expected to grow at the fastest rate
FCC catalyst segment holds one of the biggest share in the refinery catalyst market. FCC catalysts plays a pivotal role in the alteration of heavy atmospheric residue and vacuum distillates into fractions of motor fuels, mainly gasoline. It is widely used to convert the high-boiling, high molecular weight hydrocarbon fractions of petroleum crude oils into more valuable gasoline, olefinic gases and other products. The growing demand for FCC catalysts from the refining industry in emerging economies, such as China and India, also stringent environmental regulations are the key factor for driving the FCC catalyst in global refinery catalyst market.

Metals segment by ingredient in global refinery catalyst is expected to grow at the fastest rate
Based on ingredients, metals segment contributed for the largest market share of the refinery catalyst market. This growth can be credited to the growing use of metals for hydrocracking and hydrotreating to eradicate undesirable impurities and production of dangerous gases into the environment. Strict ecological regulations framed to reduce air pollution by diminishing the sulfur content in the gasoline and ultra-low sulfur content in diesel are further projected to drive the demand for metals in the refinery catalyst market.
