Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts Market – Overview
Hydrodesulfurization, one of the most critical market processes in the oil refining industry, is a catalytic chemical process used to reduce pollutants in the fraction of petroleum distillates. Hence, the market is gaining significant momentum during the continuous period. It is widely used to remove sulfur from natural gas and refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, kerosene, and fuel oils.
The Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts Market is projected to register a CAGR of over 4% during the forecast period, 2020–2028, with the North American region being the leading regional market.
The purpose of removing the sulfur from these fuel oils and natural gas is to reduce the sulfur dioxide emissions resulting from several combustions. In the catalytic reforming units, sulfur removal is essential as it can poison noble metal catalysts such as rhenium and platinum, even at low concentrations. These are subsequently used to upgrade the octane rating of the naphtha streams. Damage to these precious metal catalysts can severely impact the process and high costs.
The government bodies globally are concerned about the rising emission of harmful gases in the atmosphere due to the combustion of hydrocarbons, leading to alarming air pollution problems. However, with the continual use of hydrocarbons as the primary energy source, pollutants such asSOx, CO, NOx, and hints of some heavy elements are generated by the combustion of fuels.

Countries have made stringent environmental regulations considering this to decrease the amount of air pollutant emissions. Legislations have been issued worldwide to reduce the amount of sulfur content in transport fuels close to zero sulfur ppm (ultralow sulfur fuels). In the US, as a part of the North American region, the Clean Air Act (Tier 3) by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is focused on controlling the sulfur contents of gasoline and diesel fuels below ten ppm. The Kyoto Protocol, as a prominent environmental regulation regulates the emission of CO2 by the petroleum refinery.
