Global Sulfuric Acid Market Overview –
According to a recent report, the global sulfuric acid market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR of xx percent from 2015 to 2020. The growing need for sulfur-based fertilisers is a major driver of the global sulfuric acid market. The sulfuric acid market is expected to grow in the oil and gas industry and waste water treatment over the forecast period. Government regulations restricting the use of sulfuric acid and the high cost of raw material are the main impediments to the global sulfuric acid market growth. Sulfuric acid market growth is also being hampered by its adverse effects on human health, such as skin problems, eye irritation, and others.
The European and North American regions dominate the global sulfuric acid market share. However, the rapid industrialization in Latin America means that the region’s markets are also likely to grow at a significant CAGR. Because of a growing demand for consumer products in China, Japan, and India, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to take over the overall market during the forecast period.
