Market Definition
Liquid nitrogen is used in various commercial activities and is associated with production and utilization in different applications across industries. Liquid nitrogen is used as a coolant, cryogenic freezing agent, and preservation tool, serving a wide range of sectors such as food and beverage, healthcare, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals. The market is driven by the demand for efficient cooling and preservation solutions from various sectors due to their unique properties and applications.
Liquid Nitrogen Market Dynamics
Drivers:
- Increase in demand due to the advantageous properties: The liquid nitrogen demand is attributed to the beneficial properties it has, such as colorless, chemically unreactive, non-toxic, odorless, and non-flammable. These unique characteristics drive the increased adoption of liquid nitrogen, particularly in sectors like chemicals and pharmaceuticals, contributing to the market's growth.
- Rising need for liquid nitrogen from the healthcare sector: Liquid nitrogen is used in the removal of warts, unwanted skin, precancerous cells, and cryogenics, where it exhibits fast freezing properties on living cells and is anticipated to be a significant driver for the growth of the liquid nitrogen market.
- Expanding food and beverage industry: The rapid modernization, customer preference and increasing popularity of packaged food in the food and beverage industry have issues related to food preservation. The chemically unreactive nature of liquid nitrogen plays an important role in freezing and cooling food products thus extending its shelf life and improving food preservation.
Restraints:
- Side effects associated with liquid nitrogen: Although liquid nitrogen has several benefits, it too has potentially harmful effects. The rapid freezing of skin tissues by liquid nitrogen vapor can lead to cold burns. Moreover, ingestion of liquid nitrogen may cause stomach irritation. Extended exposure to liquid nitrogen can too result in various health problems that include loss of consciousness, vomiting, and nausea.
Opportunities:
- A diverse range of applications: The increasing demand of the population for ice cream offers new market opportunities for the growth of the liquid nitrogen market. Also, there is an increase in the application of liquid nitrogen in cryotherapies, cryopreservation, and cryosurgeries for various purposes such as mole removal, skin treatment, skin tag removal, and treatment of skin cancers.
Challenges:
- Supply chain issues: The market faces a challenge with respect to storage, transportation, and handling of liquid nitrogen because of its specialized requirements and infrastructure need that pose a challenge for manufacturers and suppliers.
