As per the report titled ‘Refinery Catalyst Market Size By Type, By Material, Industry Analysis Report, Regional Outlook, Growth Potential, Price Trends, Competitive Market Share & Forecast, 2019 - 2025’, available with Market Study Report, the global refinery catalyst market is projected to cross USD 5.5 billion by the year 2025.
 

Resurgence of global oil & gas industry has boosted the demand for refinery catalysts. Increasing usage of refined petroleum products coupled with the extensive utilization of catalysts in various processes including isomerization, reforming, desulfurization, and catalytic cracking are augmenting the growth of refinery catalyst market. These materials help in maintaining operational efficiency and managing fuel standards without affecting the environment. Shifting preference for sustainable practices and increasing use of fuels with extremely low sulfur content are other factors boosting the demand for refinery catalysts.
 

On the reverse, low availability of unique earth metals such as vanadium, molybdenum, and tungsten, along with the volatile prices of raw materials may hamper the market growth during the forecast period.  
 

Based on the type, refinery catalyst market is classified into fluid catalytic cracking, hydroprocessing, alkylation, and reforming & isomerization. Alkylation segment is expected to grow with 3% CAGR over the forecast timeline, owing to crucial application of refinery catalyst in converting low molecular weight alkenes and isobutane into alkylate.
