COVID-19 Impact on the Global Air Separation Plant Market

The air separation plant market includes major Tier I and II companies like Linde Plc (UK), Air Liquide SA (France), Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. (US), Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corporation (Japan), Messer Group GmbH (Germany), Daesung Industrial Co., Ltd. (South Korea), Air Water Inc. (Japan), Enerflex Ltd. (Canada), Yingde Gases Group Co., Ltd. (Hong Kong), INOX Air Products Private Limited (India), Hangzhou Hangyang Co., Ltd. (China), Universal Industrial Gases, Inc. (US), Nikkiso Cosmodyne, LLC. (US), and SIAD Macchine Impianti S.p.A. (Italy). These suppliers have their manufacturing facilities spread across various countries across Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, South America, Middle East, and Africa. COVID-19 has impacted their businesses as well.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a strong demand for medical oxygen for the treatment of critically ill patients. The COVID-19 induced logistic disruptions resulted in a shortage of medical oxygen across low and middle income countries of the world. This facilitated the strategy of installing on-site medical oxygen plants and generators to overcome shortfalls. As a result, the air separation plant market is witnessing increased demand from the healthcare end-use industry.

  • In March 2020, Lincare, a subsidiary of Linde Plc, played a critical role in caring for patients at home, including patients being tested positive for COVID-19. Lincare is the largest US provider of respiratory care, offering an extensive portfolio of products and services such as Respiratory Therapy, Sleep Therapy, INR Testing, Nebulizer and Respiratory Medications, Enteral Therapy, and Durable Medical Equipment. The company is helping to ease the burden on hospitals across the country by partnering with them to transition patients who are eligible for in-home care, which results in additional hospital capacity for patients requiring critical care.  COVID-19 positive patients have received respiratory services, including oxygen and nebulized respiratory medications, as well as ventilation services.
  • In April 2020, CryopAL, a subsidiary of Air Liquide, handles the manufacturing of the Freelox line of liquid oxygen vessels for medical use. These vessels are primarily used in home healthcare or long-term care facility settings to supply oxygen to patients suffering from respiratory insufficiency. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the company tripled its production capacity and prepared to further increase it to meet the needs of the home healthcare services and equip facilities that do not have an existing piped oxygen network. In response to the evolving COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, CryopAL mobilized its resources to increase production capacity for its Freelox vessels. These vessels can hold 32 or 44 liters of liquid oxygen and enable patients to self-monitor their treatment for about a week. Fabricated at its plant in Bussy-Saint-Georges, near Paris, the usual production capacity is around 100 vessels a week. Currently, the capacity has been increased to 300 vessels a week..
  • INOX Air Product Private Limited (INOXAP) has been catering to more than 60% of the total demand for medical oxygen in India. All INOXAP units have been running 24/7 to ensure continuous production and uninterrupted medical oxygen supply to more than 800 hospitals nationwide through a dedicated fleet of 550 transport tanks..

Air Separation Plant Market Dynamics

Drivers: Growing demand for industrial gases from dynamic manufacturing sectors

Global markets have undergone an unprecedented transformation over several decades. Political reforms have fueled the growth of the middle class worldwide and have led to increased disposable income and urbanization. This has led to a rise in consumerism, an idea that increasing consumption of goods and services is always a desirable goal, consumer spending is the key driver of the economy, and encouraging consumers to spend is a major policy goal. Economies such as Brazil, China, India, Mexico, the US, and Germany are laden with industries such as steel production, electronics, petrochemicals, power, chemicals, and food & beverages. The growth of the industrial sector in these countries has led to the demand for utility gases, which are critical components used in the fabrication of goods. This, in turn, is driving the air separation plant market.

Restraints: High costs associated with fabrication, component assembly, and operations

The air separation process requires a very tight integration of heat exchangers and separation columns to obtain good efficiency. All the energy for refrigeration is provided by the compression of the air at the inlet of the unit. The design of air separation may be influenced by factors like process requirements, economics, and safety. These factors act as a restraint to the growth of the air separation plant market. High energy consumption, sensitivity to environmental conditions, improper component selection, poor maintenance, high cost, and difficulty in fabrication are some of the major problems in some plants.

Demand for industrial oxygen in the African region due to COVID-19

Oxygen is primarily used in the healthcare sector but is also essential to many other industries, such as steelmaking, metals refining and fabrication, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and petroleum processing. According to Gas World, oxygen is in short supply in developing countries, such as South Africa, Nigeria, and Ghana, and companies are paying 30 times the usual rate to keep critical equipment and projects on track. According to a report published by the Steel and Engineering Federation of South Africa (Seifsa), over 80% of its members currently face disruptions in their manufacturing facilities due to the scarcity of oxygen. Some companies had canceled projects or put them on hold, while others estimated a time of two weeks before their stock of industrial oxygen ran out.

Challenges: Development of affordable as well as effective technologies

Components used in air separation plants such as sensors, detectors, transmitters, and analyzers can be expensive for customers but play an important part in a plant’s operations. Sensitivity, selectivity, stability, cost, and portability are features that customers consider while installing air separation plants. For instance, plants using gas detection devices based on laser and infrared technologies are expensive compared to metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) and electrochemical devices but offer far better accuracy and reliability than the latter. These devices are designed to meet requirements such as high sensitivity and selectivity but are highly-priced compared to infrared or electrochemical devices. MOS devices require higher operating temperatures and more power, resulting in higher cost and complex configurations than electrochemical or infrared devices. Also, the need for a longer recovery period, lack of selectivity due to economic factors, structural instability, sensor drift, and other detection defects limit their areas of application in the air separation plant.

Based on process, cryogenic process segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Cryogenic technology was commercialized in 1902 and has since been used extensively by companies across multiple industries that require gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, and others. Being the oldest air separation technology available, it has evolved considerably over the years, resulting in improved efficiency and high purity of yield gases. The growing demand for fabricated metals and alloys across the globe, the increasing dependency on pure gases for enhancing metal properties, and rapid industrialization are expected to drive the air separation plant market during the next five years.

Nitrogen is expected to be the fastest-growing gas segment of the air separation plant market.

The inert properties of nitrogen make it a good blanketing gas in many applications. Nitrogen blanketing is used to protect flammable or explosive solids and liquids from contact with air. Certain chemicals, surfaces of solids, and stored food products have properties that must be protected from degradation by the effects of atmospheric oxygen and moisture.  This is achieved by keeping these items in a nitrogen-enriched atmosphere.

Among end use industries, the iron & steel segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2021 to 2026.

Iron & steel are used in cars, appliances, roads, bridges, ships, airplanes, and in engineering and construction applications. Hence, with the development and growth of any country, the production and consumption of iron & steel increase proportionately. Countries such as China, the US, Japan, Russia, Italy, Germany, India and Brazil lead in the production and consumption of steel.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional segment in the air separation plant market.

Market growth in the Asia Pacific region can be attributed to the increasing metal production, fabrication, and consumption in countries such as Japan, China, and India. The Asia Pacific region accounts for the highest production and consumption of steel in the world, along with one of the highest oil refining capacities. It is also the manufacturing hub of the world, with abundant heavy machinery and equipment manufacturing companies.
