과초산은 강력한 산화제이며 식품 가공, 헬스케어, 수처리 등 다양한 분야에서 살균제, 살균제, 살균제로 널리 사용되고 있습니다. 무색투명한 반응성이 높은 액체로 아세트산과 비슷한 매운 냄새가 납니다. 과산화물의 일종으로 산소-산소 단결합을 포함합니다. 아세트산과 과산화수소의 반응에 의해 생성되어 그 자리에서 과초산을 생성합니다. 또한 바이러스, 박테리아, 곰팡이, 포자 등 다양한 미생물에 대해 높은 효과를 발휘합니다. 광범위한 항균 활성을 가지고 있으며 미생물의 세포막을 파괴하여 죽일 수 있습니다. 또한 다양한 산업에서 오염의 원인이 되는 생물막 제거에도 효과적인 것으로 알려져 있습니다. 물, 산소, 아세트산 등 무해한 부산물로 빠르게 분해되기 때문에 환경 친화적인 소독제로 보입니다. 유해한 잔류물을 남기지 않기 때문에 소독제 잔류가 식품의 품질과 안전에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 식품 산업에서 사용하기에 적합합니다.
농업 산업의 괄목할 만한 성장이 세계 시장을 주도하고 있습니다. 이는 토양과 작물에서 박테리아와 곰팡이의 번식을 방지하고 관리하는 능력으로 인해 농업 분야에서 과초산이 널리 채택되고 있기 때문입니다. 또한 효율적인 수처리 솔루션을 위한 과초산의 채택 증가와 안전한 식수에 대한 세계 수요 증가가 시장을 크게 지원하고 있습니다. 이와 함께 의료 환경에서 표면 소독, 기기 살균, 의료기기용 고농도 소독제로 과초산 사용이 확대되고 있는 것도 수요를 지원하고 있습니다. 이러한 배경에는 병원내 감염(HAI) 증가와 효과적인 소독 및 멸균의 필요성이 있습니다. 또한 고품질 종이 제품에 대한 수요 증가와 친환경 생산 관행에 대한 요구가 증가함에 따라 펄프 및 제지 산업에서 과초산 사용을 촉진하고 있으며, 이 또한 성장을 가속하는 요인으로 작용하고 있습니다. 이와는 별도로, 유해한 화학물질과 독소가 없음을 보장하여 지속가능하고 친환경적인 제품에 대한 수요 증가에 부응하기 위해 유기농 및 천연 제품에서 과초산 사용이 증가하고 있는 것도 시장을 주도하고 있습니다. 또한 첨단 반응기와 최적화된 생산 공정의 통합으로 과초산 생산 능력이 향상되어 시장 전망이 밝아지고 있습니다. 시장을 촉진하는 다른 요인으로는 급속한 산업화와 지속적인 기술 발전이 있습니다.
The global peracetic acid market size reached US$ 977.2 Million in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 1,813.3 Million by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9% during 2024-2032. The widespread adoption of peracetic acid in the agricultural sector, the rising adoption of peracetic acid for efficient water treatment solutions, and the growing utilization of peracetic acid in healthcare settings represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Peracetic acid is a powerful oxidizing agent that is commonly used as a disinfectant, sterilant, and sanitizer in various fields, such as food processing, healthcare, and water treatment. It is a clear, colorless, and highly reactive liquid with a pungent odor, which is similar to the smell of acetic acid. It is a peroxide family member, which means it contains an oxygen-oxygen single bond. It is produced by the reaction of acetic acid with hydrogen peroxide, which generates peracetic acid in situ. Additionally, it is highly effective against a wide range of microorganisms, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and spores. It has a broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and disrupts microorganisms' cellular membranes, leading to their death. It is also known to be effective in removing biofilms, which are a common cause of contamination in various industries. It is considered to be an environmentally friendly disinfectant as it rapidly breaks down into harmless byproducts, such as water, oxygen, and acetic acid. It does not leave any harmful residues, making it ideal for use in the food industry, where residues of disinfectants could affect the quality and safety of food products.
Significant growth in the agriculture industry majorly drives the global market. This can be supported by the widespread adoption of peracetic acid in the agricultural sector due to its ability to prevent and manage bacterial and fungal growth in soil and crops. Additionally, the rising adoption of peracetic acid for efficient water treatment solutions, as well as the growing global demand for safe drinking water is significantly supporting the market. Along with this, the growing utilization of peracetic acid in healthcare settings for surface disinfection, equipment sterilization, and as a high-level disinfectant for medical instruments is significantly supporting the demand. This is due to the increasing prevalence of hospital acquired infections (HAIs) and the need for effective disinfection and sterilization practices. In addition, the growing demand for high-quality paper products and the rising need for eco-friendly production practices are driving the use of peracetic acid in the pulp and paper industry, which is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the increasing use of peracetic acid in organic and natural products to ensure the absence of harmful chemicals and toxins, thereby meeting the growing demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly products, is also driving the market. Furthermore, the integration of advanced reactors and optimized production processes enhance the production capacity of peracetic acid, is creating a positive market outlook. Some of the other factors driving the market include rapid industrialization and continual technological advancements.
