• to learn more about this report

global spherical active carbon market size was USD 108.8 Million in 2022 and market is projected to touch 160.32 Million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period.

Spherical activated carbon is a substance with distinct properties and uses. It can be utilized to filter out poisons and hazardous compounds from water, air, or soil thanks to its larger surface areas and improved mechanical qualities. It has been demonstrated to kill specific species of bacteria in both water and oil spills. Pretzel odors and tastes can be eliminated with spherical activated carbon. Granulated carbon that has been prepared through grinding and heating is known as spherical activated carbon (SAC). SAC is the most effective adsorbent for removing heavy metals from wastewater in mechanical and catalytic processes, such as acid-washed coal washing.

COVID-19 Impact: Supply Chain Concerns Led to Downfall Over Brief Period

Global productivity has decreased as a result of the current coronavirus outbreak, which has also had an impact on various different economies throughout the world. The output rate has decreased as a result of the stagnating state of the industrial units. The supply of activated charcoal has decreased as a result worldwide. In the industrial, commercial, and residential sectors, it is mostly utilized for the purification of water. Regional industrial operations have been impacted by the strict restrictions implemented to stop the disease's spread. The product's use in the treatment of industrial wastewater has decreased due to temporary stoppage of production facilities.

LATEST TRENDS

"Expanding Application Scope Propels Market Forward"

Due to its strong adsorption ability for a variety of molecules ranging from odorous chemicals to carcinogenic pollutants, activated charcoal is a great choice for air and gas filtration. In applications like residential air purification and personal safety, it removes dangerous contaminants from the air streams to produce clean, non-hazardous air. The product is also used to separate hydrogen from biogas. By protecting downstream machinery like engines, catalysts, and fuel cells from corrosive silicon dioxide and enhancing production yields, it reduces manufacturing costs. The majority of processing facilities are projected to decrease air emissions of dangerous or offensive substances. One of the most efficient methods for the filtration of both organic and inorganic compounds is activated charcoal air treatment systems.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Advanced Features of Spherical Active Carbon Market to Facilitate Market Development"

Demand for the product increases along with the demand for clean, safe drinking water. The market is growing as a result of the product's high accessible surface area for adsorption, which removes pollutants such oils, bacteria, compounds that impart flavor and odor, and chemicals. Examples include the provision of VOC/siloxane removal systems in biogas engines in Europe and the provision of industrial solutions by Carbon Activated Corp. In the United States. Due to increasing levels of water contamination, governmental authorities have been obliged to implement tough restrictions on handling industrial effluent. This has led many businesses, including those in the paper and pulp, chemical, and paint and dye industries, to install water treatment systems in their buildings, which has raised the demand for charcoal to remove pollutants.

"Growing Application in Water Treatment to Foster Development of Market"

As the need for clean, safe drinking water rises, so does the product demand. The product's large accessible surface area for adsorption, which eliminates contaminants such oils, microorganisms, compounds that impart flavor and odor, and chemicals, is responsible for the market's expansion. For instance, in the United States, Carbon Activated Corp. offers industrial solutions; in Europe, VOC/siloxane removal systems in biogas engines are provided. A strong consumer demand for freshwater is being driven by an exponentially growing population, and this has raised the need for water filtration.

Government officials have been forced to enact strict laws on handling industrial wastewater due to rising levels of water contamination. This has influenced a variety of sectors, including paints & dyes, chemicals, and paper & pulp.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Lack of Raw Material Unavailability Hampers Market Expansion "

One danger to the market's expansion is the unavailability of different raw materials required in manufacturing, such as charcoal made from coconut shells. As a result, the price of raw materials has increased, with coconut shell charcoal seeing the biggest increase. Prices of products made from coal have gone up as a result of rising energy demands. Coal is widely employed in China's major industrial sectors, including those that produce steel, cement, and electricity. As a result, there aren't enough of certain coal grades available to make the product. Although the production output of producers has been impacted by the fall in demand for coconuts, this has led manufacturers to raise production capacity by 50% to 60%, which has led to a rise in product prices.
