Phosphorus and Derivatives Market Size, Share, Growth and Global Industry Analysis By Type & Application, Regional Insights and Forecast to 2024-2032
Growth Factors of Phosphorus and Derivatives Market
The phosphorus and derivatives market size were valued at USD 62.78 billion in 2020, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 65.13 billion in 2021 to USD 85.01 billion by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period of 2021-2028.
The COVID-19 has slowed the growth of the phosphorus and derivatives market and created delivery challenges, stoppages in production due to labor shortages, and limitations of accessing fertilizers. Hence, while revealing weaker seasonality demand and low input costs, prices dropped to 8.5% in May 2020. Measures were taken by governments to support transport of agriculture products which in turn hindered phosphate fertilizers firms from efficiently getting back to operation, thus experiencing a yearly utilization rate by 30% to 40%. This is anticipated to lead to increased phosphate fertilizer prices due to increased costs of production, and shortage of the product.
Phosphorus (P) is required for the agricultural industry as it comprises between 80% and 90% of total global demand because it is a necessary nutrient for plant development and food production. Agriculture’s principal source of phosphorus is the mined rock phosphate of which Morocco and China have the biggest percentages in the word. Other Phosphorus containing resources are found in Australia, India, and some parts of Europe. Some phosphorus sources are rare and rare, uniformly highlighting its value and without which it is impossible to practice modern farming.
Nickel-based batteries are most used in EVs as they supply great energy density but are potentially hazardous because of thermal runaway and require cobalt, a dangerous and scarce substance. Scientists from the Pennsylvania State University have put forward more specific lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries as safer and cheaper ones. It has been possible to achieve fast charging for LFP batteries where it only takes around 10 minutes to get the batteries fully charged and shorten the distance travelled by EVs. This approach also minimizes the effect of fire risks associated with over charging Nickel based batteries used in electric vehicles and the optimal utilization of energy mainly in electric automobiles.
