Global Activated Carbon Market Size, Share, Development,

Growth and Demand Forecast to 2020

Some of the major factors driving the growth of the global activated carbon market are the increasing demand of

activated carbon for air purification and water purification, and increasing food and beverage industries

compliance for activated carbon. Different governments have varied regulations for the reduction of mercury and

toxic content in the air; thus driving the growth of the global activated carbon market. In addition, activated carbon

has several applications in pharmaceuticals industry, such as removal of odor compounds, color compounds,

proteins, and other impurities from the raw materials for the production of pharmaceutical products; which is again

fueling the growth of the global activated carbon market.

The powdered activated carbon product segment leads the global activated carbon market, whereas granular

activated carbon product segment is anticipated to grow with the fastest rate in the global activated carbon

market. The air purification application segment is the largest application segment in the global activated carbon

market, owing to strict government regulations regarding the emission from industries and vehicles. The water

treatment application segment is the fastest growing segment in the global activated carbon market. The major

factors behind the fastest growth of the water treatment application segment are increasing concern and

awareness regarding the purity of water, and strict government norms for the treatment of industrial effluent.

Moreover, the increasing demand for activated carbon in metal finishing industry for electroplating solutions, and

significant growth of pharmaceutical and food and beverage industries in the emerging economies, such as

China, India, and Brazil are creating ample opportunities for the growth of the global activated carbon market,

during the forecast period. In addition, the technological advancements for recycling or reactivation of spent

activated carbon, and increasing adoption of high purity activated carbon are the key trends witnessed in the

global activated carbon market. However, the scarcity of raw materials, such as phenolic resins, coconut shell

charcoal, wood charcoal and different forms of coal is hindering the growth of the global activated carbon market

to some extent.
