Key Market Trends

Rising Demand from the Mining Industry

  • Mining industry is the largest end user for froth flotation chemicals. The chemicals are used in mining activities, according to the nature of the mine explored in the area.
  • Froth flotation chemicals are primarily employed in the extraction of minerals, by allowing them to attach to air bubbles. The specific separation of minerals from the slurry is done using the difference in hydrophobic properties of the components.
  • Flotation of various minerals, such as feldspar, quartz, calcite, potash, barite, phosphate, fluorspar, etc., is carried out using the chemicals. Direct and reverse flotation are the two flotation methods, depending on the attachment manner of the mineral.
  • Froth flotation chemicals play a major role in the mining and processing of mineral ores. With the increase in consumption of base metals (such as iron, steel, aluminum, etc.) and precious metals (such as silver, gold, and platinum), mining activities for the aforementioned metals have surged globally.
  • Collectors are the major froth flotation chemicals that boost the wettability characteristics of the required minerals, for the adsorption of molecules on the mineral surface, to reduce the mixture stability and separate the minerals.
  • All the aforementioned reasons are expected to boost the demand for the market studied, in the mining industry, over the forecast period.
Froth Flotation Chemicals Market Key Trends

Asia-Pacific to Dominate the Demand

  • Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the market, owing to the rising demand from countries, such as China, India, etc.
  • China is the largest consumer of froth flotation chemicals, owing to the country’s large mining operations. The country is one of the largest producers and consumers of mining products.
  • Froth flotation chemicals are largely used in the mining industry for recovering minerals from the slurry, separation of impurities, purification of certain minerals, and many other applications. The chemicals are employed in wastewater treatment, paper and pulp production, and other major uses.
  • The froth floatation chemicals market in India is driven by the mining industry. Mining is a major economic activity in the country, owing to the presence of large metal and mineral reserves. The distribution of minerals varies from region to region, but the country roughly contains coal, iron ore, manganese, bauxite, and various other ferrous and non-ferrous minerals.
  • Rise in infrastructure development, automotive development, and power and cement industries are driving the growth for the metal and mining sector. The country’s coal ministry has allowed private companies to engage in mining activities for the first time in four decades, and 100% FDI was allowed in the mining sector.
  • The aforementioned factors, coupled with huge government support, have been contributing to the increasing demand for froth flotation chemicals in the Asia-Pacific region, in the recent times.
