According to a Comprehensive Report by MRFR/Market Research Future (MRFR), “Non-Metallurgical Alumina Market Information by Type, by Application and Region – Forecast till 2030″, The non-metallurgical alumina market can expand from USD 2,009.41 million in 2022 to USD 3,380.43 million by 2030, with a CAGR of 6.72% during the appraisal period (2022 – 2030).

Market Synopsis

The ceramic proppants market is expected to expand over the coming years and become a sizable market for non-metallurgical bauxite. Both directly and through brown fused alumina, more than 20% of the non-metallurgical bauxite was used in refractories. It is projected that there would be a large increase in demand for calcined bauxite in the manufacture of ceramic proppants as North America and China work to increase the extraction of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs.

The majority of proppants are created from rounded quartz sands that are found in nature. Because they have a higher crush strength than natural sand proppants, ceramic proppants are better suited to high-pressure drilling situations. Consumption of ceramic proppant is anticipated to increase, particularly in China and North America, where unconventional gas deposits, such as the Sulige tight sandstone gas field in Inner Mongolia, are now being explored. Bauxite and alumina have considerable non-metallurgical markets in and of themselves, but they are typically discussed in reference to the much bigger industry of aluminum feedstock. Even though non-metallurgical grades are typically far more specialized and expensive commodities, this is still the case.
