수소화 촉매 시장 : 현황 분석 및 예측(2024-2032년)

Catalysts for hydrogen, which spur hydrogen-related reactions without undergoing permanent change, have emerged as a popular commodity in the last few years because of their use in generating clean energy electricity, refining processes, and conforming to the strict environmental standards set down in industries. The Hydrogenation Catalyst Market is growing at a steady rate of 3.41% in the forecast period, driven by the current developments and trends in renewable energy sources, the water electrolysis process, and the establishment of efficient catalysts needed in the production process. For instance, newly developed nickel-based nanocatalysts were launched in the BASF for food hydrogenation. Honeywell UOP advanced desulfurization catalysts for cleaner fuel production are such current trends. Furthermore, the market continues to expand due to the adoption of increased governmental policies toward green technologies, the constant development of more efficient catalyst designs, and the growing incorporation of hydrogen into the perspectives toward achieving net-zero emissions.

Based on the type, the market is segmented into precious-metal-based, common metal-based, and alloy-based. The precious metal-based segment historically dominated the market and is expected to dominate in the foreseeable future due to its superior catalytic properties, including high activity and selectivity, which are crucial for efficiency. Precious metal-based catalysts are popular in the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries for hydrocracking hydrotreating and synthesizing fine chemicals, where the catalyst's ability to maintain moderate conditions and perform satisfactorily throughout the process is crucial. For instance, new palladium-on-carbon catalysts launched by Johnson Matthey in March 2024 increased hydrogenation efficiency in the pharmaceutical industry output while enhancing the yield and purity of APIs. In the same way, the BASF's platinum-based catalysts unveiled in April 2024 have improved the hydrogenation of vegetable oils in the food industry to produce reduced trans-fat with enriched product stability. However, they dominate due to the high price and excellent performance of precious metal-based catalysts in highly sensitive applications. However, the market dynamics are slightly changing due to increased technology and increased cost of the precious metallic material used to manufacture hearing aids.

Based on the form, the market is segmented into heterogenous catalyst and homogeneous catalyst. The heterogeneous catalyst segments generated the most significant revenue in 2023 and are expected to showcase in the same fashion in the forecast period. This sector's key advantages and technological advancements are the major factors contributing to the segmental growth. Heterogeneous catalysts offer easier separation from reaction mixtures, enabling straightforward catalyst recovery and recycling, which is particularly beneficial in large-scale industrial processes. This feature reduces operational costs and minimizes waste, aligning with sustainability goals. BASF's launch of new nickel-based nanocatalysts in April 2024, designed for the food industry, exemplifies the effectiveness of heterogeneous catalysts in enhancing hydrogenation efficiency and reducing trans-fat formation. These catalysts' solid form allows for easy separation from the final product, which is crucial in food manufacturing to ensure product purity and safety. Similarly, in the petrochemical industry, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company introduced an advanced hydrocracking catalyst in February 2024, enhancing the conversion efficiency of crude oil into valuable petrochemical products. This heterogeneous catalyst operates under high temperatures and pressures, demonstrating exceptional stability and longevity, vital for continuous operations in refineries.

Based on end-use, the market is segmented into food, petrochemicals, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and others. The petrochemicals segment dominated the market and is expected to dominate in the forecast period due to the increasing demand for high-purity olefins and aromatics, essential building blocks for various chemical products. Moreover, the petrochemical industry's focus on improving process efficiency and product yield has significantly boosted the demand for advanced hydrogenation catalysts. Additionally, the hydrogenation process plays an active role in the refining operations, and he needs to comply with stringent environmental regulations. For instance, in October 2022, BASF SE introduced the E 15x S and E 15x L catalyst families, specifically designed for the selective hydrogenation of petrochemical feedstocks. These catalysts enhance processing efficiency and allow for lower-quality feedstocks with higher impurities, aligning with the industry's move towards sustainable and cost-effective production. Furthermore, researchers focus on developing non-precious metal catalysts like nickel and cobalt to reduce costs and increase accessibility. These catalysts are being designed to match or exceed the performance of traditional precious metal catalysts, making them viable alternatives for large-scale petrochemical applications.

For a better understanding of the market of the hydrogenation catalyst market, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in countries such as North America (The US, Canada, and Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, The UK, France, Italy, Spain, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Rest of World. The North America hydrogenation catalyst market is expected to dominate in the forecast period due to several factors, including technological advancements, substantial investments in research and development, and stringent environmental regulations driving demand for more efficient and sustainable industrial processes. North America has been at the forefront of technological innovation in the hydrogenation catalyst market. Companies in the region are investing heavily in the development of advanced catalysts that offer improved performance and sustainability. BASF has introduced a new series of nickel-based nanocatalysts tailored for the North American market. These catalysts enhance hydrogenation efficiency and reduce energy consumption, making them ideal for applications in the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries. Moreover, the region's significant investments in research and development are driving the advancement of hydrogenation catalyst technologies, fostering innovation, and ensuring competitive superiority. For instance, in July 2022, Johnson Matthey (JM), a global leader in sustainable technologies, announced that it is building an approximately (USD 85 MILLION) £80 million gigafactory at its existing site in Royston, UK, to scale up the manufacture of hydrogen fuel cell components. Therefore, this has created a demand for hydrogenation catalysts in various industries.

Some of the major players operating in the market include BASF SE, Evonik, China Petrochemical Corporation (Sinopec), CLARIANT, Johnson Matthey, Axens, Honeywell International Inc., Topsoe, Solvias, Albemarle Corporation.
