Chlorine Dioxide Market

Chlorine dioxide remains a strong contended in the widespread production of paper, as it promises with the creation of strong fiber. Moreover, the substance remains a key low-cost option to provide clean water treatment for industries, and environmental agencies around the world. There are many emerging alternatives to clean water treatments including peroxide, and UV. However, the low-cost application of chlorine dioxide for streams with low levels of persistent industrial residuals remain a promising prospect for growth in the chlorine dioxide market.

The demand for waste water treatment will likely witness significant expansion in near future, as growing environmental awareness is leading to more resistance around the world against environmental issues like waste dumping. For example, in October 2018, the Malaysian government spoke up against the illegal waste dumping on its shores, and sent back over 17 containers carrying 4000 metric tonne waste, with most being generated in North America, and Europe. Such growing resistance, and rising concern for the environment around the world, and growing efficacy of low-cost industrial waste treatment, will drive major growth for the chlorine dioxide market in near future.

Industrial Waste Water Treatment to Drive Growth as Demand for Electricity Rises

The demand for electricity generation continues to rise in the emerging nations like India, and China. Moreover, the prospects of IoT devices, smart cities, and electric vehicles will likely drive demand for electricity generation, and subsequently increase electrical waste emitting from products like batteries, and facilities like nuclear plants. On the other hand, the benefits of chlorine dioxide are many. Chlorine dioxide, a derivative of chlorine, is abundant in supply as composed to chlorine, which has experienced scarcity in the past. Moreover, chlorine dioxide remains an ideal substitute for the environment as pure chlorine dioxide promises to pollute less with zero waste from by-products like bromide, bromate ions, aldehydes, ketons, among others. The industrial application of wastewater treatments remains widespread as steel plants, mining sector, food industry, Oil & Gas extraction, textile industry, and paper industry will likely drive growth for chlorine dioxide market during the forecast period.

Covid-19 Shifts Growth Dynamic to Drive Growth of Chlorine-Based Disinfectants

World Health Organization released a statement during the covid-19 pandemic, and instructed people worldwide to use chlorine-based disinfectants in non-health related settings. Since then, the chlorine dioxide market has witnessed major growth as during covid-19, consumers flocked to get branded chlorine-based bleaches among other disinfectants to keep loved ones safe. Moreover, the Covid-19 pandemic will likely prolong as new strains of virus are being discovered. The prolonged duration of the pandemic, and rising health awareness will drive major growth for disinfectants products during the forecast period.

E-commerce, and Rising Demand for Paper in Packaging will Drive Robust Growth

The rising penetration of e-commerce will likely drive robust growth for paperboard products in near future. Paperboard products offer flexible, robust, and lightweight packaging. This packaging is ideal for catering to consumer base like millennials, which demand more natural-ingredient based products. The paper-based products also serve other core needs of e-commerce with strong packaging to meet potential challenges during transportation of goods. The chlorine dioxide remains a key addition to manufacturing of paperboard products, as it provides the strong fibre quality which is essential to their growth. Moreover, the demand from traditional industries like newspapers also remains robust in new regions of Asia Pacific, wherein printed copies of newspaper still continue to register strong growth.

The key players of this market are Accepta, Grundfos, Ecolab, Evoqua, ProMinent, CDG Environmental LLC, The Sabre Companies LLC, Iotronic Elektrogerätebau GmbH, Tecme Srl, Vasu Chemicals LLP and others.
