Global Refinery Catalyst Market (2009-2014)

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0167765/Global-Refinery-Catalyst-Market-2009-2014.html

Report Description

When the exploration for petroleum products to meet the rising demand in the 19th century sped up, the need for catalysts was felt to quicken up the production of petroleum products. A number of chemicals began to be used to make the extraction process faster and to simplify the purification process. As the extraction of petroleum products involves a number of processes, catalysts are being used in most of the processes. With the growing concern over environment protection, new types of environment protection catalysts also have been introduced. As the demand for crude oil went up from 83 million barrels/day in 2006 to 85.6 million barrels/day in 2008, the consumption of refinery catalysts also went up, following a similar trend. With the world-wide production of crude oil stated for an increase at a rate of slightly more than 1% in the next four years and the increasing concern over environment preservation, the demand for refinery catalysts is bound to increase at a decent rate.

MARKETS COVERED

All the major types of refinery catalysts like Fluid Catalytic Cracking(FCC) catalysts, Reforming Catalysts, Hydrotreating Catalysts, Hydrocracking Catalysts, Isomerization Catalysts, Alkylation Catalysts, Hydrosulphurization catalysts, Presulphurization catalysts, Sweetening catalysts, Sulphur recovery catalyst, Environmental safety catalysts, and Chain-degradation catalysts have been covered in great detail in the report. Major ingredients for these catalysts like the different types of metals, aluminosilicates and other chemical compounds have been explained in this report. We have done an in-depth geographic analysis for each of the markets and their sub-segments, covering the major regional markets, viz. U.S, Europe, Asia and Rest of the World.
