26-September-2018: The worldwide activated
alumina market size is estimated to touch USD 1.32
billion by 2025, according to a report by Grand View Research, Inc. Activated
alumina is a porous substance derived from aluminum oxide. The substance is
used as a desiccant, catalyst, and adsorbent in petrochemical, oil and gas, and
water treatment applications. Its properties of heat and shock resistance,
thermal conductivity, and hardness deem it suitable to be used in jewelry and
electric insulators.
Lithium is an element used globally in the electronics sector due to being a good conductor of electricity. The process used by manufacturers to extract lithium entails the use of purified lithium hydroxide undergoing electrolysis. This is possible with the help of activated alumina adsorbents which absorbed the moisture in the air. According to a paper in the Transactions of Nonferrous Metals Society of China, activated aluminum alloys were suitable for extracting lithium by precipitating salt lake brine.

The ever-increasing demand for
energy has led to refineries relying on adsorbents to filter out impurities.
BASF, one of the behemoths in the chemical sector, has a range of adsorbents
designed specifically for the energy sector. For instance, the Selexsorb series
purifies olefins and gases and possesses the capacity to eliminate amines,
disulfides, and oxygenates. Solid adsorbents and desiccants made from activated
alumina are a vital step in reducing carbon dioxide emissions. They are being
used in carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage, a technology used to
segregate CO2 for natural gas processing.
The activated alumina market is
expected to expand at a 5.4% CAGR over the forecast period (2014-2025) due to
rising demand from oil and gas and water treatment sectors. The booming
healthcare sector in North America is predicted to augur market demand over the
forecast period. Government policies supporting the use of the substance to
adsorb fluoride from water are estimated to contribute to market growth. Prominent
market players include Axens SA, BASF SE, Sumitomo Chemical Co., Ltd., and
Porocel Industries LLC.
