The global ammonia market is anticipated to reach USD 76.64 billion by 2025,
according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Fertilizer is the major
application of the product as well as an important source of nitrogen in the agricultural
industry, which is expected to benefit the market over the forecast period.
Liquid ammonia segment
dominated the market in 2016. It is majorly used in fertilizer and industrial
& household cleaning applications. Ammonia is a colorless and pungent
alkaline gas composed of hydrogen and nitrogen. It is an essential gas, which
is used in various biological processes and industrial applications. It causes
irritation to the eyes, skin, nose, lungs, and throat. Globally governments
have established various safety-related regulations associated with the
production, usage, and transportation of the product. The regulations also
provide some directives for the equipment and methods used during the
production process and handling of ammonia.
Globally, the gap
between supply & demand of the product is gradually becoming surplus, hence
resulting in continuous price fluctuations. This gap is mainly due to
continuous capacity additions, especially in Southeast Asia (China and
Indonesia), Middle East, Central & South America, and the U.S. The
continuous increase in capacity additions and weakening of the demand owing to
lower crop prices, poor economic prospects, fluctuating energy prices, and
rising competition are anticipated to be the major challenges for the industry
over the forecast period.
