The refinery catalyst market consists of catalysts that aid in the refining of crude oil into useful petroleum products like gasoline, diesel, and others. Catalysts help speed up chemical reactions and improve product yields in refining units like the fluid catalytic cracking unit, hydrocracking unit, hydrotreating unit, and catalytic reforming unit.
The global Refinery Catalyst Market is estimated to be valued at Us$ 3.76 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR Of 8.9% over the forecast period 2023 To 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
Stringent environmental norms regarding sulfur content in fuel is a key trend driving growth of the refinery catalyst market. Governments worldwide have implemented strict regulations on sulfur content in automotive fuels to reduce emissions. For instance, the European Union has reduced the maximum allowed sulfur content in diesel from 50 ppm to 10 ppm. Meeting these stringent norms requires desulfurization of crude oil and intermediate petroleum products using hydrotreating catalysts. The demand for low-sulfur gasoline and diesel has thus boosted the Hydrotreating catalyst segment within the refinery catalyst market. Adoption of newer emission standards will continue driving the need for low-sulfur fuels and thereby support growth of the refinery catalyst market over the forecast period.
Segment Analysis
The global refinery catalyst market is segmented into fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydroprocessing catalyst, hydro refining, hydrotreating and other segments. Among these, the FCC segment dominates the market and accounted for over 35% of global refinery catalyst volume in 2023. FCC allows conversion of heavy residues into high-octane gasoline and plays a critical role in maximizing gasoline production. FCC helps increase production of transportation fuels and is largely used by refineries worldwide.
