簡介目錄

概述

2023年，全球硫磺錠劑市場規模達15億美元，預計到2031年將達到19億美元，2024-2031年預測期間複合年成長率為3.2%。

預計在預測期內，工業加工將佔全球硫錠需求的很大一部分。由於航空航太和汽車工業的快速擴張，鋰、鈷、銅和鎳的提取和精煉預計將創下多年來的新高。

鋰化學電池的發展也將為全球市場帶來新的成長機會。科學家正在研究使用硫陰極來提高鋰硫電池的能量密度和更持久的性能的可能性。這種電池可能成為下一代電動車的主流動力來源。

動力學

全球輪胎產量的成長

汽車產業目前正快速轉向大規模採用電動車。它為輪胎製造商帶來了重大商機，因為電動車的高扭矩和高速度意味著輪胎磨損更快，從而縮短更換週期。許多輪胎製造商推出了新的電動車專用輪胎系列，具有特殊的胎面花紋和更厚的材料。

許多產業分析師預測2024年產量將達2,270萬噸，較上年成長3.4%。製造商特別注重提高印度和中國等快速成長市場的產能。由於許多汽車製造商預計到 2035 年將全面轉向電動車，全球輪胎生產將在預測期內增加對硫磺錠劑的需求。

農業生產力的提高

聯合國最新資料顯示，到2022 年12 月左右，全球人口將達到80 億。此外，如果目前的預測可信，到2050 年，全球總人口預計將達到97 億左右。多邊組織帶來壓力。

現代農業實踐的出現極大地提高了作物產量和生產力。聯合國糧食及農業組織 (FAO) 進行的一項長期研究發現，2000 年至 2022 年的過去 20 年間，主要糧食作物的產量增加了 52%。硫磺錠劑主要用作農業肥料。隨著未來提高農業生產力的力度加大，未來幾年對硫磺錠劑的需求將會上升。

人們對硫污染的擔憂日益加深

使用硫錠劑和其他化合物的一個主要問題是空氣污染率迅速上升。當農民在使用硫肥後燃燒農作物飼料時，二氧化硫 (SO2) 等化合物會在硫化合物燃燒時釋放到空氣中。 SO2 污染也會導致酸雨，嚴重影響生物。美國肺臟協會指出，長期接觸二氧化硫會導致呼吸急促、氣喘和肺功能喪失等健康症狀。

各國政府正大力限制工業硫排放。此外，化學品製造商正在開發一系列環保添加劑，作為橡膠工業加工中硫磺的替代品。隨著政府法規逐步淘汰各種硫化合物，從長遠來看，全球市場可能會面臨潛在的成長挑戰。

The evolution of lithium chemistry batteries will also present new growth opportunities for the global market. Scientists are investigating the possible usage of sulphur cathodes for improved energy density and longer-lasting performance in lithium-sulphur batteries. Such batteries could become the mainstream power source for future generation of electric vehicles.

Dynamics

Growth of Global Tyre Production

The automotive industry is currently witnessing a rapid shift towards the mass adoption of electric vehicles. It has opened a major business opportunity for tyre manufacturers, since the high torque and speed of electric vehicles means faster wearing of tyres leading to shorter replacement cycles. Many tyre manufacturers have launched new lines of EV-exclusive tyres with special tread patterns and thicker materials.

Many industry analysts have forecasted annual production of 22.7 million tons in 2024, representing an increase of 3.4% from the previous year. Manufacturers are particularly focused on raising production capacity in rapidly growing markets like India and China. With many carmakers expected to fully shift towards electric vehicles by 2035, global tyre production will augment demand for sulphur pastilles during the forecast period.

Improvements in Agricultural Productivity

Recent UN data revealed that the global population reached 8 billion around December 2022. Furthermore, if current projections are to be believed, the total global population is expected to reach around 9.7 billion in 2050. A rising global population is putting pressure on governments and multilateral organizations to increase agricultural producitivity and ensure food security for the future.

The advent of modern agricultural practices have made considerable improvements to crop yields and productivity. A long-term study undertaken by UN's food and agricultural organization (FAO), has found that yields of primary food crops has increased by 52% over the past two decades spanning from 2000-2022. Sulphur pastilles are mainly used as agricultural fertilizers. As efforts to improve agricultural productivity will intensify in the future, the demand for sulphur pastilles will rise over the coming years.

Growing Concerns About Sulfur Pollution

A major concern about the usage of sulphur pastilles and other compounds is the rapidly rising rates of air pollution. Compounds like sulfur dioxide (SO2), are released into the air on the burning of sulfur compounds, which occurs when farmers burn crop fodder after using sulphur fertilizers. SO2 pollution also leads to acid rain, which severely impacts living beings. The American Lung Association states that exposure to SO2 can cause health symptoms like shortness of breath, asthma and loss of lung function after chronic exposure.

Governments are clamping down hard on industrial sulphur emissions. Furthermore, chemical manufacturers are developing a range of eco-friendly additives as a substitute to sulphur in the industrial processing of rubber. As government regulations lead to phase out of various sulphur compounds, the global market could witness potential growth challenges over the long term.

Segment Analysis

The global sulphur pastilles market is segmented based on type, process, application and region.

90% Sulphur is Expected to Have the Highest Growth Rate During the Forecast Period

Sulphur 90% is mainly being utilized to restore pH balance in alkaline soils, since slightly acidic conditions are more conducive for crop growth. Another factor is to correct soil balance which is disrupted due to excessive usage of pesticides. When crop demand exceeds natural sulphur levels in the soil, the resultant deficits can be remedied using sulphur 90% pastilles.

Rubber processing is another major application for sulphur 90%, especially for vulcanizing rubber in tyre production. As electric vehicle production rises, it is highly likely that rubber processing will overtake agriculture to garner the highest market share during the forecast period.

Geographical Penetration

The Growth of the Automotive Industry Will Propel Market Growth in Asia-Pacific

Asia-Pacific will garner roughly a third of the global market share. The current ongoing shift towards electric vehicles will continue to generate demand for sulphur pastilles during the forecast period. China has emerged as the largest global automotive exporter, overtaking Japan in 2023, with exports totaling nearly US$ 208 billion. With even consumer electronics companies like Xiaomi producing their own electric vehicles, it has created a rapid surge in demand for EV components and materials.

India is yet another major country in Asia-Pacific that is witnessing rapid growth of its domestic automotive industry. In 2023, India also displaced Japan to become the third largest automotive market in the world. As tyre and rubber manufacturers drive to localize production, it will continue to grow the demand for sulphur pastilles over the long term.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The pandemic marked a challenging period for the global market. The automotive industry experienced major production disruptions, which in turn reduced demand from tyre manufacturers. Furthermore, as countries increased the severity of their pandemic lockdowns, it led to labor shortages that significantly halted sulphur mining and processing.

The global market underwent a gradual recovery in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic as major end-user industries returned to normalcy. However, some regions had weaker recovery due to the lingering effects of supply chain disruptions. At least over the short term, the recovery of the global market is likely to be challenging.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact Analysis

One of the major consequences of the war in Ukraine was the disruption in the production and sales of Russian and Ukrainian fertilizer companies. The industrial assets of most Ukrainian fertilizer producers were destroyed by the war fighting. For Ukraine's agricultural sector, demand can only be fulfilled by imports from western European countries.

The economic sanctions on Russia for the war, has made it difficult to acquire sulphur pastilles as it is unable to conduct U.S. dollar transactions. Therefore, the Russian government has instituted an alternative barter arrangement, trading crude oil and other natural resources for for industrial and consumer goods.
