预计2024年全球石灰市场规模将达507.5亿美元,2030年将达699.8亿美元,预测期间内复合年增长率为5.5%。

石灰基本上是一种散装、低成本、多用途矿物,由石灰石製成,主要用作化学添加剂。石灰是一种含钙无机矿物,由氧化物和氢氧化物组成,主要呈碱性。

根据世界卫生组织(WHO)预测,到2025年,全球一半人口将居住在缺水地区。据欧洲石灰协会称,钢铁业是氢氧化钙的最大消费者,目前使用了全球生产的 35% 以上的产品。

最终用途产业的需求增加

最近,世界各地的矿产产量大幅增加。这主要是因为石灰用于去除铁、钢、氧化铝、金、银、铜、铅等製造过程中的杂质,因此也用于去除汽车、建筑、航运和加工等最终用途行业中的杂质。是由于黑色金属和非铁金属的需求不断增加。

石灰的高碳足迹

石灰主要由石灰石生产,加热后将碳酸钙分解成氧化钙和二氧化碳。製造过程中产生的二氧化碳是一种温室气体,会造成多种灾难和全球暖化,导致严重的问题。此外,生产是一个高度能源集中的过程,会增加该行业的整体碳排放。

污水回收日益受到关注

人们越来越担心工业透过有害排放和低效率污水处理造成的污染。美国和西欧等国家正在收紧工业污水处理和回收的法规。印度和中国等新兴国家也着重工业水循环利用,以解决水资源短缺和地下水污染问题。

对石灰储存的担忧

由于吸湿性和大气中存在二氧化碳,石灰不能使用。储存期短也是石灰市场製造商面临的主要挑战,因为储存超过六个月后,石灰的物理和化学性质会改变。

COVID-19 的影响:

COVID-19 大流行对石灰市场产生了重大影响,导致供应链各个阶段的中断。停工和限制导致石灰产区劳动力短缺,影响了收穫和加工作业。此外,运输选择减少和港口关闭等后勤挑战也阻碍了石灰的分配。需求也出现波动,最初由于消费者对健康和免疫力的兴趣增加而激增,但随后由于餐饮业停业而下降。

预计生石灰产业在预测期内将是最大的。

由于生石灰在各行业的广泛使用,石灰市场的生石灰部分正在经历显着成长。生石灰,也称为氧化钙,广泛用于钢铁製造中作为去除杂质的助焊剂。在建筑领域,生石灰作为土壤稳定剂和水泥的主要成分也推动了需求。环境法规强制要求使用生石灰进行水处理和污水处理,进一步推动了生石灰市场的成长。此外,化学工业中钙化合物的生产及其在农业土壤改良中的作用也促进了需求的增加,使生石灰成为各种工业应用中的重要成分。

化肥和砂糖生产产业预计在预测期内复合年增长率最高

化肥和砂糖生产产业是石灰市场成长的驱动因素。在肥料生产中,石灰对于中和土壤酸度、增加养分利用率、改善土壤结构,进而提高作物产量至关重要。由于越来越需要高效的耕作方法来满足世界粮食需求,该行业对石灰的需求正在增长。全球砂糖业的扩张,特别是在新兴国家,也促进了石灰消费量的增加。在农业技术进步和全球砂糖消费量增加的支持下,两者预计将继续呈上升趋势。

比最大的地区

由于多种因素,北美石灰市场正在经历显着成长。建筑业是石灰的主要消费者,用于土壤稳定和沥青生产等应用,由于基础设施计划的增加,建筑业正在扩大。此外,使用石灰净化钢铁的钢铁工业正在捲土重来。环境法规促进在排烟脱硫中使用石灰以减少排放,进一步推动了需求。农业部门也利用石灰来改善土壤品质和作物产量,进而促进市场成长。技术进步和石灰产能的增加支持了这一上升趋势,确保稳定的供应以满足不断增长的需求。

复合年增长率最高的地区:

由于中国、印度和东南亚国家等国家的快速工业化和都市化,亚太地区的石灰市场正在经历显着成长。建筑业的发展,特别是基础设施的发展,正在推动对石灰作为水泥和混凝土生产主要材料的需求。此外,钢铁业是净化过程中石灰的主要消费者,由于製造活动的增加而蓬勃发展。鼓励使用石灰进行污水处理和排烟脱硫的环境法规进一步促进了市场的成长。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Lime Market is accounted for $50.75 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $69.98 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period. Lime is basically a high-volume and low-cost commodity mineral that is prepared from limestone and mainly utilized as a chemical additive. It is a calcium-containing inorganic mineral composed of oxide and hydroxide compounds and is primarily alkaline in nature.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2025, half of the world's population will be living in water-stressed areas. According to the European Lime Association, the steel industry is the largest consumer of calcium hydroxide and currently utilizes more than 35% of the product produced worldwide.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing demand from end use industries

There has been significant growth in the production of minerals across the globe in the recent past. This can be mainly attributed to the increasing demand for ferrous and non-ferrous metals from several end-use industries such as automotive, construction, shipping and fabrication, among others as lime is mainly used to eliminate impurities during the manufacturing process of iron, steel, alumina, gold, silver, copper and lead, among other metals.

Restraint:

High carbon footprint of lime

Lime is primarily manufactured from limestone, wherein it is heated to break from calcium carbonate to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide. The CO2 generated during the production process is one of the greenhouse gases that have led to several calamities and global warming while leading to drastic consequences. Furthermore, production is a highly energy-intensive process and adds to the industry's overall carbon footprint.

Opportunity:

The growing focus on wastewater recycling

There is growing concern about pollution caused by industries by way of harmful emissions and ineffective wastewater treatment. Countries such as the US and those in Western Europe are enforcing regulations on wastewater treatment and recycling among industries. Emerging countries such as India and China are also focusing on industrial water recycling to counter water scarcity and groundwater pollution.

Threat:

Storage concerns of lime

The absorption of moisture and presence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere makes lime incompatible for use. Along with this, less storage time is a major challenge faced by manufacturers in the lime market as the physical and chemical characteristics of lime change when it is stored for more than six months.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the lime market, causing disruptions across various stages of the supply chain. Lockdowns and restrictions led to labor shortages in lime-producing regions, affecting harvesting and processing operations. Additionally, logistical challenges, including reduced transportation options and port closures, hampered the distribution of limes. Demand fluctuations also occurred, with an initial surge due to increased consumer focus on health and immunity, followed by a decline as the foodservice sector suffered from closures.

The quick lime segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The quick lime segment in the lime market is experiencing significant growth due to its widespread application across various industries. Quick lime, also known as calcium oxide, is extensively used in steel manufacturing, where it serves as a flux to remove impurities. The construction sector also drives demand, utilizing quick lime for soil stabilization and as a key ingredient in cement. Environmental regulations mandating the use of quick lime in water and wastewater treatment further bolster its market growth. Additionally, its role in the chemical industry for producing calcium compounds and in agriculture for soil conditioning contributes to the rising demand, making quick lime a critical component in diverse industrial applications.

The fertilizer & sugar production segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The fertilizer and sugar production segments are significant drivers of growth in the lime market. In fertilizer production, lime is essential for neutralizing soil acidity, enhancing nutrient availability, and improving soil structure, thereby boosting crop yields. The demand for lime in this sector is growing due to the rising need for efficient agricultural practices to meet global food demand. The expansion of the global sugar industry, particularly in emerging economies, is contributing to increased lime consumption. Both are expected to continue their upward trajectory, supported by advancements in agricultural technologies and rising sugar consumption worldwide.

Region with largest share:

The lime market in North America is experiencing significant growth, driven by several factors. The construction industry, a major consumer of lime for applications such as soil stabilization and asphalt production, is expanding due to increased infrastructure projects. Additionally, the steel industry, which uses lime for purifying steel, is seeing resurgence. Environmental regulations promoting the use of lime in flue gas desulfurization to reduce emissions further boost demand. The agricultural sector also contributes to market growth, utilizing lime to improve soil quality and crop yields. Technological advancements and increased lime production capacities are supporting this upward trend, ensuring a steady supply to meet the rising demand.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia-Pacific region is experiencing significant growth in the lime market, driven by rapid industrialization and urbanization in countries like China, India, and Southeast Asian nations. The construction industry's expansion, particularly in infrastructure development, is boosting the demand for lime as a key material in cement and concrete production. Additionally, the steel industry, a major consumer of lime for purification processes, is flourishing due to increased manufacturing activities. Environmental regulations promoting the use of lime for wastewater treatment and flue gas desulfurization are further contributing to market growth.
