Battery Recycling Market to Reflect Robust Expansion During the Forecast Period

The global battery recycling market is expected to reach USD 21.04 billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 10.4%, according to a report by Grand View Research, Inc. The presence of stringent government regulations is expected to have a positive impact on the market growth over the next eight years.

Transportation application is expected to witness rapid growth in the battery recycling market. Growing demand for lithium-ion battery in electric vehicles and portable devices on account of its high efficiency, long life, and low maintenance is expected to positively impact the demand for recycled products.
The industry is price driven, which in turn is expected to restrain the market growth over the forecast period. Price becomes a key differentiating factor as most recyclers make use of more or less the same technology. High competition among the players does not allow large variation in the prices, thereby reducing the profitability of recycling firms.
Companies are making efforts to improve the competitiveness by setting up new collection centers and recycling plants. Moreover, new processes are being developed to bring down cost & combat environmental pollution. ECOBAT has developed its own collection system to collect spent batteries.

Sodium Chlorite Market to Account for USD 256.4 Million by 2025

The global sodium chlorite market is expected to reach USD 256.4 million by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 6.0%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Superior antimicrobial, bleaching and disinfectant properties offered by the product is expected to drive its demand in water treatment, pulp & paper, medical and textile applications.

Sodium chlorite manufacturers compete on the basis of product price, grades, and their global reach. Chinese companies are the price settlers for the product as the region dominates the production in the world. Increasing raw material prices coupled with competitive pricing in the industry are expected to hamper the profit margins for the players.

The product has been labelled as a hazardous material under USDOT regulations (49 CFR) and has to adhere to all 49 CFR regulations, which makes the shipping of the chemical an expensive proposition. Thus, shipping smaller quantities of the product is not a cost-effective practice, which compels manufacturers to trade their products in bulk quantities.
