The overall Industrial Salts Market is expected to grow from USD 13.80 billion in 20120 to USD 16.52 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 2.8% from 2020 to 2027. In 2019, the price of vacuum and open pan salt is estimated to stand at 220 U.S. dollars per ton. Moreover, the event of pepper and construction industries within the Asia pacific has led to rising consumption of the chloralkaline chemicals is additionally propelling the expansion of the worldwide industrial salt market within the region. India and china are the most important consumers of the economic salt within the Asia pacific region. However, the worldwide industrial salt market is predicted to witness steady growth by the top of 2027.
Industrial salts also find their applications in solar ponds and some energy production facilities that is anticipated to open new opportunities in the coming years. It maintains the required salinity in production of energy. It also servers the water treatment and agriculture industry in its various applications. Industrial salt is widely used by oil and gas industry and is majorly used by chemical industry.
Salt used by the pharmaceutical industry accounts for a sizable percentage of the industrial salt usage. Paper and pulp industry make use of industrial salt in processing of waste paper for washing, bleaching neutralization and pulping. Textile industry makes use of it as a deacidification agent in the production of spun rayon and is also used in leather tanning and dyeing.
In addition, it is used in the production of plastic called polyvinyl-chloride (PVC) which serves as an additive in making of other derivative salts such as calcium hypochlorite, sodium chlorate, chlorine dioxide, sodium perchlorate, sodium hypochlorite and sodium fluorosilicate, further inducing immense potential to the industry over the coming years. De-icing is anticipated to grow the market in the coming years owing to its usage as anti-icing agent that helps to delay the reformation of ice on the surface for certain period.
