Product Code: CH 1169
Chlor-alkali is an industrial process widely used to produce chlorine, caustic
soda, and other chlorine and sodium derived/based products such as sodium
hypochlorite, hydrochloric acid, chlorosulphonic acid, bleaching power,
polyaluminium chloride, hydrogen gas, and chlorinated paraffin. The process
uses brine (sodium chloride) solution during electrolysis to produce aforesaid
products which are also known as chlor-alkali industry/market products.
The report estimates the market size of chlor-alkali industry for three
products such as caustic soda, chlorine, and soda ash. It provides a
comprehensive review of market drivers, restraints, opportunities, challenges,
and key issues in the market. The market is further segmented and forecasted
for major geographic regions, such as North America, Europe, Asia, and Rest of
the World (ROW). Major countries with the market volume and revenue are
covered for each of the region. The top players of the industry are profiled
in detail with their recent developments and other strategic industry
activities.
Chlor-alkali market with its three products caustic soda, soda ash, and
chlorine form basis of most of the end-user industries. The aforesaid products
are further processed into various forms, chemical compositions, and added to
various other chemicals to design and formulate new products and derivatives.
Their wide use adds them to the list of raw materials in various industries.
The prices of these products vary from region-to-region depending upon their
extraction, supply logistics, location of manufacturing facilities, labor
cost, and most importantly energy costs. With the current energy scenario and
demand the prices of these products are expected to grow in the nearing future
translating into enhanced growth in revenue earnings of major companies.
The global caustic soda, chlorine, and soda ash market volume is expected to
reach 79.8, 74.2, and 58.1 million tons respectively translating into total
revenue of $88.6 billion by the year 2017. As of year 2012, Asia consumes
almost half of the combined volume of all the aforesaid products followed by
North America and Europe. The major application segments for chlorine are PVC
and organic chemicals, for caustic soda major applications are pulp and paper
and organic and inorganic chemicals; whereas for soda ash glass constitutes
the major application segment. Chlorine and caustic soda are mainly produced
using membrane and diaphragm technology with mercury cell process in phasing
out mode. Soda ash is mainly produced using Solvay process.
The drivers of the industry are identified as high growth in developing
regions, high demand in end-user industries, and high existing production
capacities of chlor-alkali products. Most of the production capacity of
chlor-alkali products exists in Asian region and high growth in their demand
is mainly observed in developing countries. The high production capacities in
the region also give flexibility to the manufacturers to scale up the
production depending upon demand trends. The restraining factors are
identified as environmental concerns and energy intensive operations of the
chlor-alkali industry. The issues in the market are mainly pertaining to that
of a maturing industry i.e. steady growth in mature markets such as U.S. and
Europe, and environmental concerns like carbon and mercury emissions. The
industry players are following strategies like consolidation and capacity
expansion to address to the demands generated by end-user industries and
developing countries.
The major players in the market are The DOW Chemical Company (U.S.),
Occidental Chemical Corporation (U.S.), Bayer AG (Germany), PPG Industries
(U.S.), Tata Chemicals Ltd (India), Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd (Japan),
Formosa Plastics Corp. (Taiwan), Solvay Chemicals (Belgium), Ineos Chlor Ltd
(U.K.), FMC Corporation (U.S.), Shangdong Haihua Group Co. Ltd (China), and
Ciech S.A. (Poland).
