2024 年化学领域十大成长机会Top 10 Growth Opportunities in Chemicals, 2024 |
替代原料和产品创新将在2024年创造巨大机会
随着2024年的临近,化学工业正进入一个前所未有的变革时代。三个相互关联的大趋势支撑着这项变化。
永续性是当今化工公司的首要任务。摆脱石化燃料作为原料的压力,加上减少化学工业自身直接碳排放(以及更广泛的环境足迹)的愿望,将支持永续下游客户产业的发展。
同时,人工智慧等技术可能为开发新化学物质和材料创造重要机会。 2024年,化工产业预计将迎来新产品开发的大繁荣。
最后,当前的地缘政治紧张局势可能会为该行业带来多种影响。结果之一就是人们对在地化的兴趣日益浓厚。数位和自动化技术的进步使这一点变得越来越可行,因此未来更多的化工厂将不再是世界一流的,而是更小、更灵活、更方便客户,并且在许多情况下将更具成本效益。
Alternative Feedstocks and Product Innovation Will Create Major Opportunities in 2024
As we enter 2024, the chemical industry is going through a period of unprecedented change. Three interrelated Mega Trends are underpinning this change.
For chemical companies today, sustainability is the top challenge. The pressure to migrate away from fossil fuels as a feedstock is combined with a desire to reduce the direct carbon emissions (and broader environmental footprint) of the chemical industry itself-all whilst supporting the development of low-carbon downstream customer industries.
At the same time, technologies such as AI will create enormous opportunities to develop new chemicals and materials. The industry will experience a major upswing in new product development activity in 2024.
Finally, the current geopolitical tensions will have several knock-on effects on the industry. One outcome will be to accelerate the interest in localization. Advances in digital and automation technologies are increasingly making this feasible, so more chemical plants in the future will no longer be world-scale, but smaller, more flexible, closer to the customer, and in many cases even more cost-effective than the world-scale plants they will replace.
