Chlorine Industry Procurement Intelligence, Supplier Intelligence, Supplier Ranking, Analysis Report, 2020 – 2027
Procurement
Outlook
Chlorine is a naturally occurring chemical element. It is highly
reactive and exists chiefly in compounds, bound to other types of atoms such as
sodium. To date, more than 2,000 naturally occurring chlorine-based compounds
have been identified in all kinds of organisms and places, including the human
body.
One of the most common sources of chlorine is sodium chloride
(NaCl) naturally available in ocean water and is also found in concentrated
mineral deposits remaining from ancient oceans that have dried up over long
periods of time. Once NaCl is mined, it must be transported to an industrial
chlorine manufacturing facility by dissolving in water to create a brine
solution and transported by pipeline or, transporting dry salt by rail or barge
to a manufacturing facility and then dissolved in water to make brine.
The brine needs to be purified to remove potential contaminants,
such as magnesium, calcium, and iron that have the potential to disrupt the
electrolysis process. The brine is filtered by ion-exchange membranes that
allow only the sodium and chloride ions, along with water, to pass through the
membrane.

Then electrolysis of brine is conducted to get chlorine.
However, this does not completely convert the saltwater to the final products.
It gives chlorine gas contaminated with oxygen. Then by cooling the gas, the
chlorine turns into a liquid, while the oxygen remains a gas, thus enabling its
separation.
Demand
Outlook
The global chlorine production is valued at ~100 million MT in
2020 and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 4% from 2021 to 2027 due
to rising demand from the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries and the
increasing demand for PVC from the construction industry. APAC is the leading
regional market and accounted for more than 50% of the total market volume in
2020. Increasing construction spending in China, India, Indonesia, and Thailand
is expected to drive the regional market during the forecast period. The region
is also expected to witness the fastest growth rate of 5% over the forecast
period due to the high demand for chlorine from the construction and chemical
industry.
Cost Drivers
The cost of processing sodium chloride holds the key in
determining the cost driver of chlorine production. Suppliers that can process
sodium chloride more cost-efficiently would have the major advantage in
increasing their profit margin for chlorine production. Moreover, the process
of chlorine production is also an important aspect while determining the
overall cost of chlorine production. This majorly includes fixed costs of
machinery, equipment, and maintenance costs.
