The global carbon dioxide market size was USD 10.36 billion in 2020 and is projected to grow from USD 10.69 billion in 2021 to USD 13.65 billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 3.6% during the 2021 to 2028 period. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to this market’s demand and growth, returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. The global impact of COVID-19 has been unprecedented and staggering, with the product witnessing a fueling demand shock across all regions amid the pandemic. Based on our analysis, the global market exhibited a growth of 3.0% in 2020.


Carbon dioxide is a colorless gas and is often referred to by the chemical formula CO2. It is a chemical compound consisting of one carbon atom bonded with two oxygen atoms and is 60% denser than dry air. CO2 is present in the earth’s atmosphere in low concentrations and acts as a greenhouse gas. This gas is used in various industries for several applications that are usually obtained during the production of hydrogen by steam reforming of natural gas or the production of ethanol by fermentation.


Owing to its properties, CO2 is a versatile compound and has many applications in different forms. It is used as an acidifier in water treatment, inert gas for metalworking and fire suppression, and solvent for oil recovery, and freezing applications. The rising demand for carbonated beverages from consumers is fueling the carbon dioxide market growth.


Surge in Demand from Food Industry Amidst Pandemic to Support Market Development


The recent COVID-19 pandemic has led to a decline in global productivity, decreased production capabilities, and negatively impacted several countries worldwide. The stagnant nature of CO2 manufacturing facilities has led to declining production rates. The temporary shutdown of ethyl alcohol manufacturing facilities resulted in a dip in the availability of CO2 globally. According to the Renewable Fuels Association, ethanol production and consumption in April 2020 declined by 40% compared to the same month over the last few years. However, shifts in the focus of governments toward healthcare facilities during the pandemic support the market's growth. Furthermore, the global need for vaccines is projected to propel the demand for dry ice use during transportation and storage.

Adoption of CCS Technology for CO2 Procurement to Encourage Market Growth


Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a technology used to capture CO2 emissions produced from burning fossil fuels for electricity generation, cement manufacturing, and biomass power plants, thereby preventing this gas from entering the atmosphere. This captured carbon dioxide is suitable for enhanced oil recovery applications in the oil & gas industry. Although CCS is an expensive technology, it helps minimize the environmental impact caused by emissions. This factor makes it a beneficial technology and will increase its implementation across the globe during the forecast period. Furthermore, in August 2021, the United States Department of Energy announced the funding of USD 24 million for nine research projects to explore and develop new technologies for capturing carbon emissions directly from the air. This investment is estimated to encourage market growth.


CARBON DIOXIDE MARKET GROWTH FACTORS


Increasing Use in Medical and Food & Beverage Industries to Drive Progression of Market


Carbon dioxide is used as an insufflation gas in several applications in the medical industry, including minimally invasive surgery to stabilize body cavities, cryotherapy, and respiratory stimulation. The gas is also used for tissue freezing and tooth sensitivity assessment. The extensive use of CO2 in the rapidly growing medical industry is expected to drive the market. Moreover, it is also used by the food & beverage industry. Carbonation of beverages is done by food-grade of the gas, and for freezing of meat & poultry. However, industrial-grade gas is used in other food products. The rising demand from packaged food & beverage producers will boost the growth of the market.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Transportation Concerns Related to Carbon Dioxide to Impede Market Progress


A critical challenge hampering the market's growth is the concerns related to the transportation of carbon dioxide. Pipelines are widely used to transport gas. However, the lack of standards for pipeline quality authentication will hinder market growth. Transporting CO2 involves high maintenance costs and the risk of leaking into the atmosphere, which, in turn, hinders the market's growth. Additionally, protocols such as the Kyoto Protocol, which commits the involved countries to limit the emission of greenhouse gases, will also be responsible for the decline in market growth.


CARBON DIOXIDE MARKET SEGMENTATION ANALYSIS


By End-Use Industry Analysis

Food & Beverage Segment to Continue Strong Growth during Forecast Period


Based on the end-use industry, the market is fragmented into food & beverage, oil & gas, metal fabrication, medical, and others.


Amongst these segments, food & beverage accounts for the major share of the carbon dioxide market. In the food & beverage industry, CO2 is used to carbonate drinks, freeze poultry and food products, and control pH levels. Changing lifestyle choices has increased the demand for ready-to-make and frozen foods, thereby increasing carbon dioxide consumption. Additionally, the exponentially increasing population has propelled the demand for food and beverage products, which will support the market's growth. The growth of the medical segment is associated with the development of advanced surgical procedures such as endoscopy and laparoscopy. In addition, the rising need for vaccines globally will propel the consumption of dry ice.


Furthermore, the oil & gas segment is witnessing growth in carbon dioxide demand due to its use as a solvent for oil recovery. This gas is used as a supercritical solvent for enhanced oil recovery and can increase oil output by 15%-20%. The demand for this gas increases the fabrication of metals, as it is used to protect the molten metal from atmospheric contamination during welding processes. The gas is also used as a cooling agent during electric arc welding. Hence, the rising metal fabrication industry would drive the demand for CO2.
