The water purification industry’s growing need is one of the main factors driving the activated carbon market. Due to the surge in population, the need for water purification has significantly increased. Moreover, freshwater is required by several manufacturing industries, further indicating the ever-growing demand for water purification. Here, activated carbon plays an essential part in the water purification process, eliminating contaminants, such as color compounds and dyestuffs, toxicity, non-biodegradable organic compounds, and adsorbable organic halogens (AOX), among others.
Furthermore, activated carbon is utilized as an absorbent for the purification process in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors. The pharmaceutical industry requires excellent purity levels during all processing services. The significant impurities eliminated through the activated carbon include unwanted colors, metals, catalyst traces, and other process-related contaminants. Hence, the rising activities and investments associated with R&D in the pharmaceutical sector are likely to offer multiple growth opportunities to the activated carbon market.
However, the fluctuations in raw material prices are restraining factors affecting the studied market’s future. Activated carbon uses numerous raw materials, including coal and coconut shells. The prices of these products differ in accordance with the economic and environmental conditions. For instance, changing environmental conditions impact raw materials like coconut shells, whereas economic cycles impact coal prices.
