According to YH Research, the global adsorbent market size of about 33.18 billion yuan in 2023, the compound annual growth rate CAGR of about % in 2019-2023, is expected to continue to maintain a stable growth trend in the future, and the market size will be close to 46.38 billion yuan in 2030, with a CAGR of 4.9% in the next six years.

Global life sciences, drinking water, new energy, carbon emissions and other emerging markets for adsorption and separation materials to bring incremental demand, domestic small capacity tends to advanced production capacity has formed the trend of tightening supply and demand to bring new opportunities.

Characteristics and applications of adsorbents
Characteristic advantages:
Large specific surface area: this is the key factor for adsorbent to adsorb target components efficiently, providing more adsorption sites.
Suitable pore structure: Different pore sizes and pore structures can be targeted to adsorb molecules of different sizes and shapes, improving adsorption selectivity.
Strong adsorption capacity: Firmly bind the adsorbent by physical or chemical action (e.g. van der Waals force, electrostatic action, chemical bonding, etc.).
Chemical stability: avoid reaction with adsorbent or medium, ensure the stability and safety of adsorption process.
Easy regeneration: the adsorption capacity can be restored through simple treatment, reducing the cost of use and improving the utilisation of resources.
Good mechanical properties: maintain structural stability during processing and use, not easy to break.
Application areas:
Petrochemical industry: used in oil and gas separation, desulphurisation and denitrogenation, olefin/alkane separation, etc.
Oxygen industry: in the air separation device to remove nitrogen, carbon dioxide and other impurities, improve the purity of oxygen.
Environmental treatment: water treatment (e.g. removal of heavy metals, organic pollutants), air purification (e.g. VOCs treatment), soil remediation, etc.
Food and medicine: used in the purification of food additives, separation and purification of drug intermediates, etc.
New energy: used for gas purification and electrolyte purification in hydrogen energy, lithium battery and other fields.
