The global photocatalyst market reached a value of US$ 2.16 Billion in 2021. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 3.61 Billion by 2027, exhibiting at a CAGR of 8.4% during 2022-2027. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.
Photocatalyst is a substance that catalyzes the main reaction in photocatalysis. It absorbs light to bring it to a higher energy level and provides energy to a reacting substance, which results in a chemical reaction. It also destructs and degrades pollutants at ambient temperature and pressure compared to current air and water purification technologies. It is made using easily available materials, such as metal oxides, metal sulfides, oxysulfides, oxynitrides, and composites, and well-known techniques. As it is cost-efficient and consumes lesser energy, the demand for photocatalyst is escalating around the world.
There is currently a considerable scarcity of water on account of rapid industrialization and depleting freshwater resources worldwide. This represents one of the key factors impelling the market growth. Photocatalysts have superior chemical properties and the ability to decompose organic compounds that enhance the water treatment process. They are also environment friendly as they do not exhibit toxicity and absorb lamplight or sunlight for their functioning. Moreover, as they are made with self-cleaning materials and act as a barrier for dust and stains, photocatalysts are increasingly employed in the construction industry. This, along with the escalating demand for low volatile organic compounds (VOC) coatings and the expansion of the construction industry, is contributing to market growth. Furthermore, leading manufacturers are continuously investing in research and development (R&D) activities to introduce innovative photocatalysts materials using zinc oxide (ZnO) and calcium sulfide (CdS). This, in confluence with the increasing concerns about pollution, is positively influencing the adoption of these materials in the production of air conditioning systems, air filters, and ventilation. Besides this, the market is also driven by the growing applications of photocatalysts on glass surfaces, including glass film, optical lens, refrigerated showcase, road mirror, and bathroom or dresser mirror.
The publisher provides an analysis of the key trends in each sub-segment of the global photocatalyst market, along with forecasts at the global, regional and country level from 2022-2027. Our report has categorized the market based on type, form and application.
