Technavio analyzes that the Spherical Activated Alumina Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% during 2023 and 2028. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 231.8 million.There are various factors that contribute to the growth of the market. The Spherical Activated Alumina (SAA) market has experienced significant growth due in part to various government initiatives aimed at promoting its adoption in water treatment applications. These initiatives include funding for research and development, tax incentives for companies using SAA in their processes, and regulations mandating the use of advanced filtration technologies. These measures have boosted the market's expansion, particularly in regions with stringent water quality standards. The long-term outlook for the SAA market remains positive, with continued government support expected to drive demand for this effective and eco-friendly filtration solution.
The global spherical activated alumina market caters to various industries, with a prominent role in desiccant applications. Notable grades, such as AD-101 (SORB-I) and ALSORB-F from Sorbead India, distinguish themselves due to their large specific surface areas, approximately 415 square meters per gram. This extensive surface area enables superior water vapor and moisture adsorption, crucial for air drying applications. These grades are optimally suited for use in heated or heatless air dryers and compressor air dryers, where achieving a low dew point is imperative. Spherical activated alumina outperforms other adsorbents like silica gel and molecular sieves due to its superior adsorption capacity, making it a preferred choice in these applications. Particle size, sample purity, furnace atmosphere, time-temperature profile, and adsorption data are essential factors influencing the production process and performance of spherical activated alumina. Amorphous alumina is the base material used in the activation process, which significantly impacts the final product's characteristics.
