The global market for activated carbon has been growing at a
considerable rate with water treatment; air and gas filtration;
food and beverage; pharmaceutical; and automotive end-user
industries over the past five-years. The market for activated
carbon used in air and gas treatment applications is expected to
grow at a faster rate due to tightening government regulations. The
Asia-Pacific region dominates the
activated carbon market globally followed by North America and Europe. The opportunities for regeneration of
activated carbon are further driving the activated carbon market
worldwide.
To assess the market, activated carbon is divided into three
major types - powdered activated carbon (PAC), granular activated
carbon (GAC) and extruded activated carbon (EAC). Activated carbon
is a type of adsorbent made from coconut shells, coal and wood.
Activated carbons manufactured from coconut shells are mainly in
powdered and granular forms, while those from coal are commonly in
granular and extruded forms and those manufactured from wood are
majorly powdered form. Activated carbon has a porous structure with
a wide surface area where all contaminants are adsorbed.
Application of activated carbons in various industries to
reduce the level of contaminants and impurities as well as to meet
the regulatory standards for pure air and water is driving the
global market for activated carbon.
Calgon Carbon Corp., Cabot Corp., Haycarb PLC, MeadWestvaco,
Osaka Gas Company Ltd., Kuraray Company Ltd. and Evoqua Water
Technologies LLC are some of the major manufacturers of activated
carbon globally.
ADA Carbon Solutions LLC, Albemarle Corp., Arkema group,
Carbotech AC GMBH, Indo German Carbons Ltd., Kureha Corporation,
Ningxia Huahui Activated Carbon Company Ltd. and Oxbow Corporation
are the other key participants in the activated carbon market.
This report also highlights the major drivers and challenges
related to activated carbon and also focus on the market share for
major companies, including their profiles.
Activated carbon is the major adsorbent in global adsorbent
market occupying more than 65% of the volume market share due to
its high adsorption capacity and large surface area. Activated
carbon is mainly divided into three types; powdered, granular and
extruded. It has become the preferred option for use in potable
water purification, waste water treatment, aquariums, swimming
pools and sewage water treatment as well as air and gas filtration.
These applications are gaining popularity due to increasing
pollution levels, health concerns and stringent government
regulations.
Apart from this, activated carbon is used for decolorization and
deodorization of food and beverages; and purifies vitamins
antibiotics and active pharma ingredients in pharmaceutical
industry and 1medical applications. Some of the other applications
of activated carbon include control gas emissions in automobiles;
personal protection in defense sector; gold and precious metal
recovery; and as catalyst in removal of mercaptan in oil
refineries.
Scarcity of raw material and increasing concerns over supply
chain, the activated carbon market is currently facing pricing
issues; however, the market for activated carbon is on rise due to
its extensive use in liquid phase and gas phase applications.
The global market for activated carbon totaled $1.9 billion, in 2013, driven primarily by
Asia-Pacific and North American
region for applications in water treatment and air purification. As
per Ceskaa Research, the global market for activated carbon reached
$2.1 billion, in 2014, reflecting a
YOY growth rate of 10.2% from 2013. Further, the market is expected
to grow at a five-year CAGR of 11.3%, to reach $3.7 billion, by 2019. Stricter government
regulations across regions for air purification and water treatment
will drive the market for powdered and granular activated
carbon.
