Alkyl Amines Market Drivers
Growing wastewater treatment plants globally
Alkyl amine is an effective surfactant that can act as biocides due to their ability to kill microorganisms. Alkyl amine also enhance the biocidal effect of chlorinated phenolic when they are applied in water. The use of alkyl amines improves the water quality and also acts as resistant to corrosion due to its property of oxygen scavenging. The growing wastewater discharge into the waterways where it creates health, environmental and climate-related hazards further drive the demand for water treatment plants. Whereas, the growth of wastewater treatment plants in the developed and developing regions drive the market growth. For instance, in 2019, in India, Delhi Jal Board awarded SUEZ the contract to build and operate a wastewater treatment plant with a capacity of 564,000 m3/day amounting a value of €145 million (around US$196 million). Moreover, in 2019, the South African Government has released 341 million Rand ($24.3 million) to rehabilitate several wastewater treatments plants in Mpumalanga province. Thus, the developments in wastewater treatment activities globally also turn drive market growth.
Alkyl Amines Market Challenges
Harmful effects of alkyl amine and high maintenance cost
Exposure to alkyl amines is corrosive to the eyes, skin, and lungs. Moreover, the toxic nature of Alkylamines further incurs high maintenance and transportation costs. The harmful effects and high cost of alkyl amine acts as a challenging factor to the market growth. Additionally, fluctuating prices for raw materials and foreign currency can directly impact the overall market growth of alkyl amines. As Ethyl alcohol, ammonia and factory gasses are the primary raw materials used in the production of alkyl amines.
Emergence of COVID-19 the Pandemic
The pandemic is affecting operations of various industries such as agriculture, oil and gas, construction, packaging, and others. As, Alkyl Amines products are extensively used in these industries, the declining operations of these industries is directly affecting Alkyl Amines market growth. Moreover, it is expected that the outbreak of COVID-19 will be seen in the whole year of 2020, and a few months in 2021 and will have its major impact on the economy and global trade volume. According to World Trade Organization (WTO), global trade volumes are projected to decline between 13% and 32% in 2020 as a result of the economic impact of COVID-19.
