Rising demand form oil & gas, and healthcare industry will proliferate the global Activated Alumina industry

The global Activated Alumina market size is anticipated to reach over USD 1 billion by 2025. Activated alumina is a coarse substance that is obtained through the di-hydroxylation of an aluminum hydroxide. It is a common form of aluminum, which exhibits porous characteristics for adsorption and filtration. It has capability to absorb water from the air and impurities such as selenium, arsenic, and fluoride from the water. As a result, it is further used for multiple applications including desiccant, catalyst, bio ceramics, and fluoride adsorbent.

High surface area to weight ratio, low-pressure drops, reduced abrasion, and improved crush strength are some of the key features offered by the product in comparison to the other available alternatives, which in turn is driving the industry growth. Its impressive characteristics have expanded its application across lithium compounds to remove impurities and has witnessed significant demand from the sector. Furthermore, its rising demand from healthcare, oil & gas, plastic industry is stimulating the industry landscape.

The report also throws light on various aspects of the global Activated Alumina industry by assessing the market using value chain analysis. The report covers several qualitative aspects of the Activated Alumina industry in market drivers, market restraints and key industry trends. Furthermore, the report provides an in-depth assessment of the market competition with company profiles of global as well as local vendors.

The global Activated Alumina market holds a strong competition among the well-established and new emerging players. These market players target to gain a competitive advantage over the other players by participating in partnerships, mergers, and acquisitions and expanding their businesses.

The Activated Alumina market is categorized into desiccant, fluoride adsorbent, bio ceramics, catalyst, and others on the basis of end use industry. The plastic segment is analyzed to grow at a CAGR of over 4% over the forecast timeline.
