Flotation is the process used to
separate and concentrate ores by altering their surfaces to a hydrophilic or
hydrophobic condition. Flotation reagents are the chemicals used for the froth
flotation process. They include pH regulators, slime dispersants, conditioning
agents, collectors, resurfacing agents, wetting agents, and frothers. These reagents help in aeration of
minerals in water which facilitates the attachment of air bubbles to selected
minerals and drifts them.
Once at the surface, the selected
minerals are supported by a froth layer until they are removed. The materials
which are unattached to air bubbles remain submerged in the pulp. The mining
industry utilizes these chemicals in all stages of production to increase the
efficiency and productivity of the mining processes such as the extraction and
recovery of minerals from ores.
Among types, the flocculants
segment of the flotation reagents market is projected to register the highest
CAGR, in terms of value during the forecast period. The frother segment is
projected to lead the flotation reagents market between 2018 and 2023, in terms
of value.
The increase in consumption of
flotation reagents such as flocculants and frothers in various applications
such as water & wastewater treatment and the mineral process will drive the
market during the forecast period.
Based on application, the water & wastewater treatment segment is
projected to lead the flotation reagents market between 2018 and 2023, in terms
of value. The increasing demand for better quality treated water, reduction in
water wastage, and stringent environmental regulation is a major factor driving
the growth of this segment of the market.
APAC is estimated to be the leading
flotation reagents market in 2018, in terms of value. It is expected to be
followed by the North American and European regions. The growth of the market
in APAC can be attributed to the increased demand for flotation reagents from
China. The increase in mining activities in these regions will lead to an
increase in the consumption of flotation reagents.
The key companies operating in the flotation reagents market are BASF SE
(Germany), Cytec Solvay Group (Belgium), Clariant AG (Switzerland), Kemira OYJ
(Finland), Huntsman (US), Dow Chemical (US), AkzoNobel (Netherland), SNF
FLOERGER SAS (France), Evonik (Switzerland), and Orica (Australia).
BASF SE (Germany), which is one of the largest manufacturers of flotation
reagents in the world, has adopted the strategy of agreements to strengthen
its foothold in the market. The company is continuously expanding its business
of flotation reagents across the globe to maintain its position in the market.
For instance, in March 2018, the company had an agreement with Solenis (US), both the company agreed to join
hands by combining BASF’s paper wet-end and water chemicals business with
Solenis.
Clariant AG (Switzerland) is one of the leading manufacturers and
distributers of specialty chemicals across the globe. It offers mining
processing and flotation chemicals for the flotation reagent industry. The
company has adopted the strategy of acquisition to stay competitive in the
flotation reagents market. In October 2016, the company acquired the mining
service business of Flomin Inc. (US) which offers various products such as
frothers, collectors, and caters to the oil & gas industry. This
development enabled the company to expand its flotation reagents business in untapped markets.
