- Materials and Chemicals
Applications of industrial gases ranges from areas like petrochemicals and biotechnology to nuclear power and aerospace. Other uses lie in small scale supply including hand-carried gas containers like whipped-cream chargers and. Sales are done not just to industries, but can also be done directly to the customers for use in items like balloon (helium), LPG and medical oxygen.
End-user/Technology
The end-users can be as follows:
--> Other industries making use of industrial gases: like petrochemical, energy, chemicals, healthcare, transport etc.
--> Small scale businesses
--> Direct customers
The process followed varies with the gases to be manufactured. Following are the major technologies common in most cases:
--> Air separation: Air is refined to produce largely available gases like nitrogen and oxygen, as well as rare ones like neon and xenon.
--> Liquefaction
--> Reforming: A chemical process used to convert natural gas and steam into syngas (constituting hydrogen and carbon monoxide, and a byproduct of carbon dioxide).
--> Manufacturing
--> Purification
The processes are done in a controlled manner, taking special care of sources of ignition and mixing of incompatible materials. Other measure vary with the raw materials used and end products manufactured.
Market Dynamics
The industrial gas market is set to grow in the years following 2015. There are multiple driving forces for this growth. The major reason being the increasing demand from consumer industries like the aforementioned petrochemicals, energy and chemicals. These in turn can be attributed to the ever-increasing population and continuous industrialization.
Other factors stem from the applications themselves. Following are some factors driving the demand in developing and developed countries:
--> Increasing environmental consciousness
--> Initiatives taken in the direction of climate control
--> Need for alternate energy sources: oxygen
--> Cleaner fuels in transport sector: hydrogen
--> Oil recovery activities: carbon dioxide
--> Healthcare needs
--> Increased energy demand
--> Increased demand in aerospace industry
--> Growth in pharmaceutical, food and beverage industries
--> Increasing demand in aerospace industry: for high quality gas solutions
Market Segmentation
--> Packaged
--> Merchant
--> On-site
The major market share lies with the packaged segment, accounting for about 45% of the total market share. The segments vary in the quantity of gases supplies as well as their applications. For examples, packaged distribution takes care of the consumers that require small volumes of industrial gases. The mode of storage can be metal cylinders.
Regional/Geographic Analysis
Rapid growth in the industry is expected to come from developing nations in Asia like India, China, South Korea as well as from Brazil, due to their growing economies. Factors like increasing refinery output, infrastructural expansions and other developments, regulations for climate control, etc.
In the year 2015, Asia-Pacific region accounts for the largest market share of 38.9% in the industry. China is the largest market, but India is expected to grow at the highest rate in the coming years.
Opportunities
Significant growth is expected to take place in developing economies, largely Asian countries, especially in pharmaceutical, food and beverages industries. Other factors that indicate future prospects are the adoption of cryogenic processes for various industry processes. However, the deterrents from entering the market include huge capital requirement and cost of production. Also, the ROI (return on investment) remains uncertain.
Key Players
The key players in the global industrial gas market include L'Air Liquide- accounting for more than one-fifth market share in 2015, Air Products and Chemicals, Linde, Praxair, Taiyo Nippon Sanso, Air Gas, and Matheson tri-Gas. These vendors, based out of different locations globally, captured approximately 80% of the market share in 2015. Other small and big vendors spread globally, having domestic and international presence account for the remaining market share.
