In addition, the idea of large-scale reuse
of carbon dioxide, particularly to create
synthetic fuel sources, has gained traction
in recent years and will open up a number
of fresh opportunities.

By 2018, it is expected that the sector
could be worth more than $20bn, with
Reforming CO 2 into other high-value
molecules is a big area of exploration and
research, and there will be a wide range
of requirements for analytical purity
measurements, an area where Servomex
already has a strong position.

REVIEWS THE OPPORTUNITIES THE GLOBAL SPECIALTY
MARKET OFFERS INDUSTRIAL GAS MANUFACTURERS.
SPECIALTY GAS MARKET REVENUE,
BY GEOGRAPHY 2015 (%)
China is the largest consumer of specialty gases in the region
– with demand driven by the manufacturing industry, in
particular the expansion of semiconductor manufacturing.
India and South Korea
both display strong growth
in demand, driven by
electronics manufacturing.
North America remains a large, very
healthy market for specialty gases,
containing most global leaders in
specialty gas manufacturing. Because
of the market size and increasing
appetite for specialty gas in the US, the
region continues to show moderate
growth, with a consistent need for
specialty gases to convert shale gas
liquids into monomers and polymers.
Asia-Pacific is expected to
experience the fastest growth
in the next few years due to the
growing adoption of specialty
gases in health care and an
increased demand in industrial
manufacturing applications.

Specialty gases are high-purity gases for
specific applications, and are either ultra-
high-purity single component gases or
accurately prepared gas mixtures.
Specialty gases include high-purity
air-separated gases, noble gases,
ammonia, hydrocarbon gases, and
halogen gases. These gases require
rigorous chemical analysis to ensure
their composition meets stringent
specifications, particularly the detection
of moisture and oxygen impurities
that can contaminate the gas during
the transportation or production
process. Present in even minute ultra-
trace quantities, these impurities can
ruin the batch production of products
being produced, so rigorous analysis is
required to the very lowest detection
levels possible.

Globally, the multi-billion-dollar market
for specialty gases continues to grow,
with consumption having increased
significantly over recent years due to a
demand in key applications like LED
lighting/flat panel display production,
semiconductor chip manufacturing,
petrochemical production and the
calibration of analytical instrumentation. an average annual growth rate of
approximately 4-6%.
