The global industrial catalyst market size reached US$ 23.6 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 32.9 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6% during 2024-2032.
A catalyst refers to a substance that improves the rate of a chemical reaction without undergoing any physical or chemical change. It enhances chemical processes and minimizes waste, production time, energy consumption, and operational cost. It assists in enhancing the air quality by controlling emissions, mitigating volatile organic compounds (VOCs), formulating improved oil fractions, including natural gas, biodiesel, and propane, and synthesizing active compounds and intermediates. As a result, industrial catalysts are widely used in petroleum refining, petrochemical production, environment protection reactions, organic synthesis, polymer processing, and bulk chemical synthesis.
The growing expansion of the petroleum industry is resulting in the rising establishment of petrol refining capacities and the need for various chemical products and eco-friendly fuels. This, in turn, is positively influencing the market. In addition, the escalating demand for petroleum-based products from power generation plants is expanding the applications of industrial catalysts in petroleum refining and petrochemical plants for a convenient, quicker, safer, and more efficient production process. Apart from this, the rising use of catalytic converters in automobile manufacturing emission control systems is offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. This can also be attributed to increasing environmental concerns and the implementation of stringent government regulations for controlling emission levels. Furthermore, the development of nano-catalysts that assist in enhancing catalytic procedures in the pharmaceutical and food and beverage (F&B) industries are creating a positive market outlook. Moreover, strategic collaborations amongst leading industry players to expand their global market reach, along with increasing investments in research and development (R&D) activities to enhance catalysts efficiency while minimizing operational costs, are impelling the market growth.
