Market Research Global Molecular Sieves Market Analysis 2018
The molecular sieves market was valued at USD 3,739.47 billion in 2017 and is projected to
reach USD 4,729.83 billion by 2023, with a CAGR of 6.12% during the forecast period (2018 -
2023). The growth is largely fuelled by strong growth in petroleum refining, petrochemicals,
wastewater treatments, and detergent industries.
Soaring Demand in Petroleum Refining & Petrochemicals Industry
Molecular sieves are mostly used in petroleum refineries, where they provide energy-efficient
options to certain separation processes that involve heating of oil. For purification purposes, they
are majorly used for water treatment and air purification. As desiccants, they are used to remove
impurities from many industrial gases and liquids. They can be reused through regeneration,
where the adsorbate molecules are removed from the molecular sieve bed, by heating and
purging with a carrier gas.
The market is expected to grow rapidly due to the presence of opportunities, such as the
development of anti-microbial zeolite molecular sieves. Apart from that, the FDA approval for
the use of these materials in food items has opened new prospects for the global molecular sieves
market.
However, this market faces certain drawbacks, like threat from chemical composites, enzymes
and other substitutes, which may act as a roadblock to the market growth.
