Global Industrial Nitrogen Market: Overview
Industrial nitrogen is high-grade purity nitrogen, which is obtained either via mechanical separation or fractional distillation of air. Generally, industrial nitrogen is obtained in a gaseous or liquid form. Liquid nitrogen is a cryogenic liquid, which is used to cool superconductors at high temperatures and transport food items. The global demand for industrial nitrogen can be due to the varied product applications in several end-use industries, such as healthcare, food and beverage, automotive, agrochemicals, metal production, and chemicals, among others.
Global Industrial Nitrogen Market: Growth Factors
The major growth driver in the global industrial nitrogen market is the rapidly growing food and beverage and steel industries. The rising population has further led to a huge boost in the demand for food products along with the need for maintaining safety and quality of products simultaneously. Furthermore, nitrogen also helps in keeping food items fresh by reducing the chances of discoloration and spoilage. The rising concerns related to hygienic storage and food safety are anticipated to further fuel this global market over the estimated time period. Additionally, the demand for cryogen by the healthcare industry to preserve and freeze blood, tissues, and reproductive cells, etc. Development of the healthcare industry due to substantial technological advances are likely to drive the growth of the industrial nitrogen market in the future. The increased use of nitrogen gas in the production of stainless steel and fertilizers, fire suppression systems, aircraft fuel systems are also contributing to the development of the industrial nitrogen market globally in the forthcoming years.
