全球氯市場概況

2023年全球氯市場規模為416.8億美元，預計到2031年將達到632.6億美元，在預測期內（2024-2031年）複合年成長率為5.35%。

氯是一種強反應性元素和強氧化劑，在鮑林標度上具有最高的電子親和力和第三高的電負性，僅次於氧和氟。電流透過鹽溶液產生氯氣。電解是產生氯氣、燒鹼、氫氣和氯氣的過程。氯是地球上生產最廣泛的化合物。

氯最常用作紙張和織物生產中的漂白劑，但它也可生產殺蟲劑（殺蟲劑）、橡膠和溶劑。氯用於消滅飲用水和游泳池水中的有害細菌。作為衛生過程的一部分，它也用於處理工業廢物和污水。當氯漂白劑與其他清潔化學物質一起使用時，會產生氯氣。第一次世界大戰期間，氯被用作窒息（肺部）劑。

全球氯市場動態

在聚氯乙烯的製造中，氯是重要的原料。由於建築、汽車、複合材料製造和水處理應用的不斷成長，PVC 消費量預計將擴大。另一方面，氯化對健康的有害影響可能會限制市場成長。

近年來，用於衛生和飲用水的處理水的需求急劇增加，這一趨勢在未來幾年將在氯工業中持續下去。印度、泰國和巴西等新興經濟體越來越注重提高公眾對飲用不乾淨水的危險及其與傳播霍亂、傷寒和戊型肝炎等疾病的認知。越來越多用於水處理。

該化合物擴大用於淨化游泳池和灌溉系統的水。此外，許多國家的政府正在製定嚴格的法規來規範經過處理的清潔安全水的供應。這些原因預計將增加該化學品的使用，並推動市場向前發展。

PVC消費量迅速成長

氯廣泛用於製造 PVC 所需的氯化過程。該元素在 PVC 中的使用具有多種優點，包括在製造過程中提高熔體黏度和增強熱穩定性。因此，氯被廣泛用於 PVC，這是主要的市場促進因素之一。

由於建築業的壁板和管道應用、汽車行業的擋風玻璃系統零件以及醫療行業的不易破碎容器的需求不斷成長，PVC 的消費量正在增加，所有這些都推高了世界各地對氯的需求。

氯化的危險影響

用氯預處理水以減少生物污垢是最受歡迎的消毒方法。儘管氯化法應用廣泛，但它也有明顯的缺點，包括產生消毒副產物以及對某些微生物無效。雖然氯可以有效消除水中的大多數毒素，但它也會添加其他類型的毒素，例如三鹵甲烷 (THM)。當氯進入供水系統並與其他自然存在的元素結合時，就會形成三鹵甲烷。三鹵甲烷如果進入身體系統，可能會導致氣喘、膀胱癌和心臟病。

氯化的主要缺點包括對原生動物的保護有限、渾濁水中的消毒效率降低、潛在的味道和氣味問題、需要建立溶液品質控制以及氯化副產物的長期影響。

COVID-19 影響分析

由於為阻止冠狀病毒傳播而實施的全國封鎖，氯需求量有所下降。世界各國都致力於拉平感染曲線，這導致許多國家實施封鎖，數百萬人滯留在家中。這導致企業以及生產和製造設施關閉，沒有經濟活動。

此外，用於進口或製造疫苗的政府資源影響了塑膠、化學品、紙漿和造紙等其他工業製造部門的投資。然而，解除封鎖限制後，氯需求穩定成長。

Chlorine is a strongly reactive element and a potent oxidant, with the highest electron affinity and third-highest electronegativity on the Pauling scale, trailing only oxygen and fluorine. Electric current is passed through a salt solution to create chlorine. Electrolysis is a process that produces chlorine, caustic soda, hydrogen and chlorine. Chlorine is the most widely produced compound on the planet.

Chlorine is most commonly employed as a bleach in producing paper and fabric, but it also produces insecticides (insect killers), rubber and solvents. Chlorine is used to destroy hazardous germs in drinking water and swimming pool water. It's also employed in treating industrial waste and sewage as part of the sanitation process. When chlorine bleach is used with other cleaning chemicals, it can produce chlorine gas. Chlorine was utilized as a choking (pulmonary) agent during World War I.

Global Chlorine Market Dynamics

In the manufacturing of polyvinyl chloride, chlorine is a significant raw element. PVC consumption is expected to expand because of rising building, automotive, composite manufacturing and water treatment applications. The harmful health effects of chlorination, on the other hand, may limit the market growth.

Increasing demand for water treatment

The need for treated water for sanitation and drinking has expanded dramatically in recent years, a trend that will continue in the chlorine industry in the future years. Emerging economies like India, Thailand and Brazil are increasingly focusing on boosting public awareness about the dangers of drinking unclean water and its involvement in spreading diseases like cholera, typhoid and Hepatitis E & A. Because chlorine can kill germs and other diseases, it is increasingly used in water treatment.

The compound is increasingly used to purify water in swimming pools and irrigation systems. In addition, numerous countries' governments are enacting tight regulations to regulate the supply of treated, clean and safe water. These reasons are expected to increase the use of the chemical, propelling the market forward.

Mushrooming consumption of PVC

Chlorine is utilized extensively in the chlorination process required to make PVC. The element's use in PVC has several advantages, including increased melt viscosity and enhanced thermal stability during the manufacturing process. As a result, chlorine is widely utilized in PVC, one of the key market drivers.

PVC consumption is increasing due to the growing demand for siding and piping applications in the building and construction industry, windshield system parts in the automobile industry and non-breakable containers in the medical industry, all of which are driving up chlorine demand around the world.

The hazardous impact of chlorination

Pretreating water with chlorine to decrease biofouling is the most popular disinfection method. Despite its widespread use, chlorination has significant drawbacks, including the generation of disinfection by-products and ineffectiveness against certain microorganisms. While chlorine effectively eliminates most toxins in water, it also adds other types of toxins, such as trihalomethanes (THMs). When chlorine is put into the water supply and combined with other naturally existing elements, THMs are formed. THMs can cause asthma, bladder cancer and heart disease if they get into body systems.

The main disadvantages of chlorination include limited protozoa protection, decreased disinfection efficiency in turbid water, potential taste and odor objections, the need to establish solution quality control and the long-term impacts of chlorination by-products.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The chlorine demand has decreased due to a nationwide lockdown implemented to stop the spread of the coronavirus. Countries worldwide were focused on flattening the infection curve, which has resulted in lockdowns in many countries, stranding millions of people at home. It resulted in the closure of businesses and production & manufacturing facilities, with no economic activity.

Furthermore, government resources devoted to importing or manufacturing vaccines impacted investments in other industrial manufacturing sectors such as plastics, chemicals and pulp & paper. However, chlorine demand improved steadily post the lifting up of lockdown limitations.

Global Chlorine Market Segment Analysis

By application, the chlorine market is segmented into EDC/PVC, isocyanates and oxygenates, chloromethanes, solvents and epichlorohydrin, inorganic chemicals and others.

The rising demand for Super Absorbent Polymers (SAP) in Sanitary Pads

PVC is extensively used in the building, construction and infrastructure industries. Polymeric materials are often used to construct and operate structures, either partially or entirely. Roofing materials, pipe systems, seals, wall panels, coatings and other goods can all be used. PVC comes in two varieties: hard resins and flexible resins. The majority of growth potential is in rigid resins, with main end-users including fittings, pipe & fittings, windows, fencing, roof tiles and vehicle parts. Film & sheets, flooring, wire & cable coating, synthetic leather items and shower curtains are all examples of flexible PVC. EDC is utilized as a solvent in the metal cleaning, textile and adhesives industries.

In the production of EDC and PVC, a substantial amount of chlorine is required as a raw ingredient. According to Euro Chlor, European chlorine production reached 795,584 tonnes in February 2020. Irrigation, water & sanitation management, building & construction, transportation, power, retail and other industries continue to see significant investment. PVC items such as wires and cables, pipes, wood PVC composites and waterproofing membranes play a significant part in the sustainable management of these sectors. The need for residential and office space grows every year as the world's population grows and urbanization accelerates. As a result, demand for PVC in the construction industry is expanding, as the goods provide great function and a long life term.

Global Chlorine Market Geographical Analysis

The growing demand from end-use industries in Asia-Pacific

The use of chlorine is expanding due to urbanization and an increasing demand for fresh water in China and India.

The demand for chlorine in this industry is expected to rise throughout the forecast period, owing to rising demand for chemicals. Furthermore, China boasts one of the world's largest pulp and paper industries. China is among the world's top three paper producers.

Russia-Ukraine War Impact:

European natural gas supply heavily depends on Russia, a country abundant in natural gas and oil. Approximately 35% of Europe's natural gas consumption originates from Russia. This connection is facilitated by a network of crucial pipelines, the most significant of which traverses Ukraine. This route has also become a critical bottleneck amidst the escalating crisis between the involved parties.

According to the latest data released by the European Chemistry Council, the revenue sources from chemical sales in the 27 EU countries were distributed as follows: the EU domestic market accounted for 13%, intra-EU sales (excluding domestic revenue) accounted for 53%, and the external EU market accounted for 34%. Compared to data from the past decade, the proportion of the EU's external exports has increased by 5 percentage points, reflecting trends in global trade and the rising demand for chemicals in markets outside the EU.
