Market insight:
Rising demand for industrial catalysts for manufacturing eco-friendly fuels is a major factor driving revenue growth of the market. In addition, chemical catalysts and processes play a key role in the production of renewable fuels and value-added chemicals. The chemical industry relies on catalysts to perform reactions as close to ambient temperature as possible, reducing energy consumption and expenses. Today, the industry is under increased pressure to be cleaner and greener, which will necessitate the creation of novel catalysts. As a result, market companies are significantly investing in research & development operations, developing catalysts that enable industrial processes to be less polluting, work with a better atom economy, generate purer products, and last longer.

However, significant drawbacks of a chemical catalyst, such as high cost, toxicity, and reusability, are key factors, which could limit revenue growth of the market. For instance, if a catalyst capable of dissolving in solution is to be recovered for reuse, it must be isolated first. In high temperatures, catalysts such as homogeneous ones may have challenges linked with the evaporation of any volatile components. When used in industrial processes, catalyst compounds such as zeolites and others have considerable limits. For instance, zeolites are extremely sensitive to deactivation by irreversible adsorption or steric blocking of heavy secondary products, making them unable to use their microporosity to produce bulky compounds. Moreover, since functional chemicals are more polar than hydrocarbons, it is more challenging to use the shape selectivity of zeolites for their reactions.

Competition Landscape:
On 29 September 2022, BASF SE, which is a leading chemical company headquartered in Ludwigshafen, Germany, introduced CircleStar, which is a novel dehydration catalyst for processing renewable feedstocks. For the Ethanol-to-Ethylene (E2E) conversion, the unique star-shaped catalyst achieves 99.5% selectivity. CircleStar helps to reduce the carbon footprint in the bio-ethylene value chain for goods ranging from jet fuel to plastics by more than 10% while maintaining the same performance by operating at a temperature more than 25 degree Celsius lower than conventional processes. This WK Research market report is designed to help clients improve their market position, and in line with this, this report provides a detailed analysis of several leading sheet face mask substrate companies that include: BASF SE, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC, Clariant AG, Dorf Ketal, The Dow Chemical Company, Evonik Catalysts, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Johnson Matthey, W.R. Grace & Co., Arkema S.A.
