MARKET INTRODUCTION

Fluid catalytic cracking is also known as FCC is a conversion process used in petroleum refineries. It is mostly used in the conversion of the high-boiling, high-molecular-weight hydrocarbon fractions of crude petroleum oils into more valuable gasoline,olefinic gases and other products. Fluid catalytic cracking has replaced the traditional thermal catalytic process to derive higher gasoline quantities to meet stringent carbon emission standards imposed by the government of developing countries.

MARKET DYNAMICS

The fluid catalytic cracking market is growing at a faster pace owing to economic growth in developing regions such as China, India, Cambodia, Laos, Mongolia, etc. Furthermore, globalization and rising international trade practices have triggered a number of industries utilizing the rapidly diminishing resource. The soaring demand for olefinic gases, gasoline and petroleum products for meeting the increasing need for power and fuel is anticipated to fuel the growth of the fluid catalytic cracking market. Escalating global fuel consumption to meet rising demand from transportation & industrial sectors is thus likely to boost the demand for fluid catalytic cracking. However, high operation and investment costs are expected to hamper growth. A gradual decline in gasoline demand from Europe and North America is further expected to negatively impact FCC industry growth in these regions.
