Market Definition
The Middle East oil refining catalyst market refers to the market that deals with the catalysts used in refining of crude oil. They are used to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of oil refining operations by converting crude oil into valuable refined petroleum products namely diesel, gasoline and other petroleum derivatives. They not only enhance the rate of reaction but also improve the quality of product and improving the overall refinery performance. The market growth of oil refinery catalyst is fuelled by factors such as rise in the global energy demand, government stringent regulations, and focus on improvement of fuel quality.
Middle East Oil Refining Catalyst Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Imperative Desulfurization in Refineries
Desulfurization of oil products gradually draws interest to oil manufacturers. The elimination of sulfur often improves oil and consumer product efficiency and eliminates adverse effects on the climate, while improving the intensity of the technical machinery in its oil treatment. The price of oil products is significantly affected by sulfur even though they contribute mainly to machinery and the pollution of the environment
- Rising Demand for Gasoline and Other Petroleum Derivatives
The global energy consumption is continuing to rise, as there is an increasing demand to meet transportation fuels needs. The catalyst plays an important role in increasing the quality of petroleum products such as gasoline and other refined products. They also meet the stringent environmental regulations of the government to improve fuel quality. Moreover, the growing population and urbanization are the factors that are accounted for demand growth of gasoline and other petroleum derivatives
- Stringent Regulations Regarding the Sulphur Content and Octane Number of the Fuel
Environmental regulations such as standards regarding to sulphur emissions and octane number regulations aims to reduction of sulphur content in transportation fuels and enhance the performance and quality of petroleum products such as gasoline respectively. Using the oil refinery catalyst will help refineries to comply with such regulations and produce high quality and clean fuels
Opportunities
- Growing Use of Catalysts for Biochemical Synthesis Reactions
The major developments in enzyme development and production, biocatalysts are primarily used for synthesizing fine chemical components and medicinal compounds. The researchers developed in vivo artificial enzyme tandem reactions through the development of synthetic biology and metabolic engineering tools to mimic the synergistic effects of cascade reagents catalyzed by various enzymes. Therefore, the production of A single tandem enzyme or chemical enzyme in vitro is increasingly centred because of its simple and concision catalytically systems and the method of oil purification
- Increasing Research and Development Activities for Improving the Efficacy of Catalysts
Developing new techniques for catalytic action in lipase applications for – anti-natural substrates is in high demand due to their biological processes. These insights highlight the ability of technology to prepare highly active semi-synthetic lipase such as enzyme nanomatopoly immobility, site-specific chemically controlled enzyme interfaces, which offered the ideal biocatalyst for a variety of critical bioprocesses, including biodiesel manufacturing, regioselective carbon identification and kinetic resolving of specific drug catalysts
Restraints/Challenges
- Volatility in Raw Material Prices
The raw materials that are used in catalyst production such as zeolites and metals experience price fluctuations because of various factors such as supply and demand. When such prices of raw materials are unstable they can affect the production cost of catalysts further can lead to high prices for end-users such as refineries
- Technological Advancements Leading to Decreased Consumption of Catalysts
The changing market trend for petroleum products would not only need an improvement in refining production, but would also involve a change in refining design. Given the need for an improved middle distillation, it is important to prioritize effective distillation and isolation of materials (in rough distilling and conversion plants), compiler optimization of feed and activities for Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC), optimum middle distillation column hydro cracker mode (in which possible),optimum hydro treater operations, and cutting-edge catalyst for maximum middle distillate production
