21 Jun 2023

The global sodium carbonate market size was evaluated at USD 13.26 billion in 2022 and is expected to touch around USD 21.3 billion by 2030, growing at a noteworthy CAGR of 6.10% from 2022 to 2030.

Sodium Carbonate Market Size and Growth Rate From 2022 To 2023

Sodium carbonate, widely known as soda ash, is a whitish inorganic chemical that has the presence of alkaline properties and is also used in the production of multiple products such as detergents, glasses, chemicals, feed & food sectors. The chemical formula of sodium carbonate is N2CO3 which is also referred to as a hygroscopic and amorphous substance that has increased the solubility in each solvent including water. Sodium carbonate is also extracted from ashes of vegetation with high contents of sodium.

The chemical is also an industrial formula of limestone and sodium chlorides using the processes known as the ‘Solvay Process.’ It is also referred to as a chemically active substance which releases the carbon dioxide after treatment with acids. Although sodium carbonate chemical has low levels of toxicity, prolonged exposure to such chemical may induce eye or skin irritation. Moreover, the ingestion of sodium carbonate is likely to cause vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, and stomach ache. The sodium carbonate also aids in reducing the furnace temperatures which is essential for the melting of sand in the glassmaking industries that need to focus on the reduction of cost of production. 

Regional Snapshots:

The geographical sectors of North America have also developed the largest market which has resulted from the large presence of leading market players in this region. Additionally, the existence of advanced processing facilities that are supplied by the governments in the form of compensation services as well as helps people opt for advanced sodium carbonate products. The growing demands for steel, electricity, and aluminum due to the growing industrialization has resulted in the growth of the mining sector.

The U.S. market for sodium carbonate also result in increased demand from the domestic mining sectors which also exceeded USD 20 million in 2022. This creates lucrative growth opportunities for the sodium carbonate market owing to the beneficiation of product & processing of mineral ore and multiple metals such as steel & cobalt. Furthermore, the enhanced ability of soda ash to augment the reactions of dyes with the presence of fiber, which allow permanent dye fixation is expected to drive the adoption of the dye, textile, and leather sectors.
