Fertilizer catalysts are employed in fertilizer production to accelerate chemical reactions. These catalysts are substances used in the manufacturing of fertilizers to enhance reaction rates and reduce production time. By lowering the activation energy, catalysts facilitate the more efficient breaking of bonds between nitrogen and hydrogen.
The primary products of fertilizer catalysts include iron-based, vanadium-based, platinum-based, rhodium-based, nickel-based, palladium-based, ruthenium-based, zinc-based, cobalt-based, molybdenum-based, chromium-based, and copper chromite. Molybdenum-based catalysts involve a metallic element that shares properties with chromium and tungsten. It is utilized to strengthen and harden steel and serves as a trace element in plant and animal metabolism. The processes employed in fertilizer production include the Haber-Bosch process, the contact process, nitric acid production, potassium fertilizer production, and urea production. Various applications for fertilizer catalysts encompass nitrogenous fertilizers, phosphatic fertilizers, and other specialized applications.
The fertilizer catalyst market research report is one of a series of new reports that provides fertilizer catalyst market statistics, including fertilizer catalyst industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a fertilizer catalyst market share, detailed fertilizer catalyst market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the fertilizer catalyst industry. This fertilizer catalyst market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The fertilizer catalyst market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.87 billion in 2023 to $3.05 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to the imperative need for improved crop yields, a focus on enhancing fertilizer efficiency, compliance with environmental regulations, the adoption of sustainable agriculture practices, and efforts directed at preserving soil fertility.
The fertilizer catalyst market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.92 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as climate change adaptation, the demand for sustainable and eco-friendly catalysts, adherence to regulatory compliance, the use of crop-specific catalysts, and the rising adoption of precision agriculture practices. Noteworthy trends expected during the forecast period include the emergence of nano and micronutrient catalysts, advancements in nutrient release technologies, the integration of data-driven nutrient management practices, the development of customized catalyst blends, and the increased incorporation of technology in the fertilizer catalyst industry.
The anticipated increase in fertilizer production is set to drive the growth of the fertilizer catalyst market in the future. Fertilizers, chemical substances applied to crops to boost productivity, are produced using fertilizer catalysts in the manufacturing industry. Catalysts play a crucial role in enabling higher fertilizer production volumes at a reduced cost. Notably, in September 2023, S&P Global Inc., a US-based capital company, reported a significant surge in primary fertilizer demand from $115 billion to well over $231 billion in 2021. Consequently, the upswing in fertilizer production is a key factor propelling the growth of the fertilizer catalyst market.
The rising demand for agricultural production is another driving force for the fertilizer catalyst market. Agricultural production, involving the cultivation, growth, and harvesting of crops, as well as the raising of livestock for food and other agricultural products, relies on fertilizer catalysts to enhance fertilizer application efficiency, improve nutrient utilization, and ultimately boost crop yields. According to agricultural production statistics by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a US-based government organization, global production of primary crop commodities reached 9.5 billion metric tons in 2021, marking a two percent increase from the previous year. Therefore, the escalating demand for agricultural production is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the fertilizer catalyst market.
A notable trend gaining traction in the fertilizer catalyst market is product innovation. Major companies in this sector are actively engaged in innovating their products to strengthen their market position. In 2021, Clariant, a Switzerland-based chemicals company specializing in fertilizer catalysts, introduced a novel fertilizer catalyst named EnviCat N2O-S. This innovative product has demonstrated the ability to remove up to 95% of nitrogen generated as a by-product of nitric acid production. By curbing greenhouse gas emissions, Clariant aims to contribute to reducing the adverse environmental impact of fertilizer manufacturing. Product innovation remains a key focus for companies seeking to stay competitive in the evolving fertilizer catalyst market.
Major players in the fertilizer catalyst industry are increasingly adopting a strategic partnerships approach to provide essential fertilizer services to individuals, businesses, and governments. Strategic partnerships involve companies leveraging each other's strengths and resources to achieve mutual benefits and success. A noteworthy example is the partnership formed in March 2022 between Casale SA, a Switzerland-based chemicals company, Ferkensco Management Limited, an agricultural chemical company based in Uzbekistan, and Enter Engineering Pte Ltd., a construction company also based in Uzbekistan. This collaboration lays the foundation for future joint efforts among the three companies in supporting the development of an ammonia-based fertilizer plant in Uzbekistan.
