Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst market size was valued at US$ 1137 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 1249 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 1.4% during review period.

This report studies the Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst market, Hydrotreating, formally known as hydrodesulfurization (HDS), is a chemical process used on natural gas and refined petroleum. The aim of this process is to decrease the amount of sulfur in the petroleum by increasing the amount of hydrogen in the product. This is done for a variety of reasons, such as decreasing the environment impact when these petroleum products are used, and to keep the reforming units that process the petroleum from being poisoned. Most of the sulfur produced annually comes from this process.

In hydrotreating, hydrogen is introduced into a mixture to increase the overall hydrogen count. Petroleum undergoes what is specifically called hydrogenolysis. This is when the carbon and sulfur bond contained within petroleum is split, and a hydrogen atom is linked to both the carbon and the sulfur atom. Through this process, the sulfur can be removed from the petroleum until it reaches an acceptable level.

After hydrotreating, the remaining sulfur is reduced to either sulfuric acid or byproduct sulfur, which is similar to its natural elemental state. Most of the sulfur made and purchased comes from this process, because there is a large supply of sulfur leftover from the petroleum refineries after hydrotreating is finished. Aside from making the petroleum refinery more money, this means less sulfur has to be mined to adequately supply the market. Sulfur is the primary element removed from the fuel with hydrotreating, but there are other elements removed as well that are thought of as unwanted in petroleum. Both unsaturated hydrocarbons and nitrogen are taken out of the petroleum supply. This further purifies the fuel and improves its value.

The global Hydrodesulfurization Catalyst market is dominated by Advanced Refractory Technologies (ART), Albemarle Corp, Criterion, Honeywell UOP and Haldor Topsoe A/S, with the top six players accounting for about 80% of the market share.

The United States is the largest market for hydrodesulfurization catalysts, with a market share of about 40%, followed by China and Europe, each with about 20%.
