Digital Chemical Industry Market Size

The global digital chemical industry market is projected to grow at a CAGR value of 16.5% between 2021 and 2026. Digitization of the chemical industry is expected to increase productivity in the industry, greater innovation, modify supply chains, and create new market channels. Chemical industries that have incorporated existing technologies generate and store large amounts of data at lower costs due to the greater computational capabilities of modern technology. With the help of digitization, chemical industries can increase productivity in manufacturing, improve marketing and sales revenues, and implementation of new technologies in research and development.

By exploiting the availability of advanced data analytics, industries can analyze data at the management level to increase production capabilities without increasing their input. Most chemical industries produce large amounts of data during their manufacturing process but with efficient utilization of the generated data, companies can improve their yield, lower energy consumption, and provide proactive and effective maintenance. Polyurethane manufacturers that have introduced data analytics through their manufacturing process improved their output of isocyanates by 10% without any capital investment and can generate savings by lowering their usage of high-pressure steam.

Implementation of technologies like IoT and digital twins with cloud computation capabilities allow plant operators to remotely monitor the plant’s productivity and optimize the working parameters to improve profitability. Augmented reality, virtual reality, 3D printing, and other technologies are becoming increasingly common in the research and development of new products and improving manufacturing processes. Predictive analytics and digitization will allow chemical industries to stay a step ahead of demand cycles and predict opportunities that are not as apparent.

The growing demand for optimization of manufacturing processes, supply chain modifications, and increasing market revenue through new products and market channels is expected to increase the demand for digitization in the chemical industry. Technological innovations in mobile app and devices and their growing penetration are expected to further enhance the digital chemical industry market during the forecast period.

The advantages of digitization in the chemical industry are plenty, however, the market is restrained by various environmental and safety regulations. The high cost of implementing new technologies and the need for a skilled labor force capable of efficient utilization of said technology is expected to hamper the growth of the market.

The heavy demand for petrochemicals and polymers in various end-use industries is the major driver of the segment. Petrochemicals and polymers are used extensively in plastic manufacturing and the ever-increasing demand for plastics is expected to increase the demand for digitization in the chemical industry.

Environmental regulations and safety regulations are forcing chemical industries to improve their products to reduce their carbon footprint and develop new recyclable products. Digitization allows chemical industries to address regulatory restrictions and incorporate recyclable materials in their production processes and invest in recycling technologies. The growing demand for sustainability and recycling in the chemical industry is expected to further enhance the demand for digitization among petrochemicals and polymer chemical industries.

Digital Chemical Industry Market: By Process

Based on the various processes in the chemical industry, the market is segmented into research & development, manufacturing, procurement, packaging, supply chain management & logistics, and others. The manufacturing segment is expected to hold the largest share of the revenues generated in the digitization of chemical industries. Digitization of the manufacturing process allows industries to increase productivity without any capital investments. The use of digitization in chemical manufacturing processes can reduce raw material requirements and cut down emissions.

The implementation of novel technologies such as AR, VR, and 3D printing is expected to result in the research and development segment becoming the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. The growing investment in the research and development of innovative products and manufacturing processes will only further enhance the growth of the research and development segment.
