POTASSIUM BICARBONATE MARKET OVERVIEW

The Potassium Bicarbonate Market, valued at USD 0.15 billion in 2024, is forecasted to grow consistently, reaching USD 0.16 billion in 2025 and ultimately hitting USD 0.21 billion by 2033, at a steady CAGR of 3.6% from 2025 to 2033.

 In the market study, our analysts have considered potassium bicarbonate players such as Shandong Lunan Chemical, Evonik, Wentong Potassium Salt Group, Baoding Runfeng, Armand Products, Hebei Xinji Chemical Group, Shanxi Wencheng Chemical, Toagosei Group, Shijiazhuang Runhong Technology are the top companies operating in the potassium bicarbonate market.

Potassium bicarbonate is encountered rarely in its natural state as kalicinite, a mineral. It can also be discovered in humans, vegetation, animal life, and nearly all living organisms. The compound is required for several bodily functions, most notably heartbeat. Causticity of the chemical or advanced material is lower than that of carbonates and hydroxides. It is categorized as a secure ingredient by FDA. The product is liquid and quickly dissolves. The chemical supplements are commonly used to treat or prevent low potassium levels in the blood. It promotes the proper functioning of the kidneys, cells, muscles, nervous system, and heart. Several other conditions, including such diarrhoea and vomiting, as well as hormonal imbalances, can cause a decrease in potassium levels in the body.

The chemical is allowed in organic agriculture in the United States, as well as by IFOAM standards. It is an extremely important plant and microbial nutrient with a natural cycle of uptake and use by both microbes and plants in the soil.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Supply and Lockdown Limitations to Impede Market Advancement

Coronavirus has had a negative impact on the growth of many businesses, including the industries of potassium bicarbonate. Regional governments around the world levied shutdown, causing business owners to see a decline in the demand for the chemical in the second and third quarters of 2020.

With the decrease or decline in the demand, manufacturers or industrialists reached the pharmaceuticals and agricultural sector and government concessions in order to increase their product sales in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The reopening of initiatives and agricultural products manufacturing and pharmaceuticals has cleared the way for the chemical manufacturers in the market, and growing demand for the potassium bicarbonate market is anticipated to reach at greater levels during the estimated timeframe.

LATEST TRENDS 

Rise in Health Abnormalities and Shift Towards Organic Farming to Stimulate Market Development

Potassium bicarbonate's antifungal properties, the shift toward organic farming, rising health abnormalities such as osteoporosis, particularly in women, increased utilization of potassium bicarbonate in multiple biomedical applications, and a variety of other applications are expected to boost demand and utilization of the chemical in the forthcoming years.

DRIVING FACTORS

Increasing Usability of the Chemical to Aid Market Expansion

Potassium bicarbonate is encountered rarely in its natural state as kalicinite, a mineral. It can also be discovered in humans, vegetation, animal life, and nearly all living organisms. The compound is required for several bodily functions, most notably heartbeat. Causticity of the chemical is lower than that of carbonates and hydroxides. It is categorized as a secure ingredient by FDA. The product is liquid and quickly dissolves. The chemical supplements are commonly used to treat or prevent low potassium levels in the blood. It promotes the proper functioning of the kidneys, cells, muscles, nervous system, and heart. Several other conditions, including such diarrhoea and vomiting, as well as hormonal imbalances, can cause a decrease in potassium levels in the body.

Requirement in Agricultural Applications to Foster Industry Progress

In baking, the chemical may be used as an efficient source of carbon dioxide. Furthermore, the chemical or advanced material is employed as a convenient potassium source as well as a corrosion inhibitor. The chemical or advanced material has numerous applications. In fire extinguishers, it is employed as a dry powder. Furthermore, the chemical is utilized in a variety of agricultural applications, including soil pH correction and acidification reduction.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High-Cost Issues of the Chemical to Hinder Market Advancement

Moreover, potassium carbonate as well as potassium bicarbonate have similar medicinal applications. For instance, these two compounds are employed to cure hypokalaemia, a condition characterized by a low stage of potassium in the blood. Furthermore, this chemical or advanced material is more expensive than potassium carbonate. Both of these factors may act as a restraint on the global growth of the market.
