The chlor-alkali process is a process that produces chlorine and hydrogen. In addition to providing chlorine and hydrogen, chlor-alkali chemicals are used as a feedstock in numerous chemical processes. This process plays a critical role in the chemical industry and its products are used in over 50% of all industrial chemical processes. The chlor-alkali process uses chlorine, oxygen and sodium chloride as raw materials. The chlor-alkali industry uses a variety of electrolytic cells. Most chlor-alkali plants today use membrane cells. These membrane cells have advantages over mercury cells, such as low toxicity, good energy efficiency and mercury-free operation. They are able to produce higher value gases, such as oxygen and hydrogen, and can be coupled with other systems.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing demand from various end-user industries such as food and beverage, construction, pharmaceuticals, and textiles is expected to boost the chlor-alkali market. In addition, surging construction activities and a growing demand from the paper packaging industry are also expected to drive the market growth. Chlor-alkali companies are working to increase their market share by investing in research and development, product development, and expansion of production facilities. In addition, several companies are entering into strategic alliances to enhance their offering to their customers. Moreover, several closed manufacturing facilities are being set up to manufacture chlor-alkali chemicals, which will play a vital role in the market's growth over the forecast period.
On the other hand, the chlor-alkali market is expected to hamper by several factors such as government regulations, the cost of raw materials, labor cost, and the availability of energy resources.
