H1 2023: Sodium Chlorite prices fluctuated in Asia Pacific region in H1 2023. During January 2023, market prices experienced a decline in India as downstream industries faced sluggish demand, and imports arriving in India remained subdued due to weakened international demand sentiment. In the subsequent month, prices saw a substantial increase due to heightened production rates and a surge in domestic demand from downstream sectors like textiles and water treatment. However, in March 2023, prices took a downturn amid weakened cost support from upstream Hydrogen peroxide and subdued demand, exacerbated by elevated inventory levels of the product in India. However, April onwards, the Sodium Chlorite market in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in China, underwent a substantial price decline. The demand for Sodium Chlorite from downstream textile industries saw a significant reduction, primarily attributed to a lack of interest. However, there was still moderate demand from wastewater treatment sector. Additionally, the Asian market experienced an oversupply situation, with ample product availability in the ports, resulting in subdued purchasing activities. There were no supply issues during the period of April-June 2023 in the Asia Pacific region. In the North American market, the Sodium Chlorite sector underwent a varied pricing trajectory during the first quarter of 2023. Positive market sentiments characterized the in January 2023, marked by heightened production rates and increased demand from downstream sectors like textiles and water treatment. Sodium Chlorite market prices experienced a further uptick in February 2023 driven by robust demand from downstream textile and water treatment industries. However, March saw a shift in market dynamics due to looming inflationary pressures, economic uncertainties, and the collapse of two banks in the US. April 2023 witnessed a significant loss of momentum, followed by a gradual decrease in May and June 2023. Reduced consumption from downstream textile and paper industries played a role in the market dynamics during this period.
The global Sodium Chlorite market stood at approximately 250 thousand tonnes in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period until 2032.
Sodium chlorite, a versatile chemical compound, serves a myriad of applications across diverse industries. Primarily recognized for its role in water treatment, it acts as a disinfectant, controlling microbial growth and purifying water in municipal treatment plants and industrial processes. Beyond its water treatment capabilities, sodium chlorite is extensively utilized as a potent bleaching agent in the textile and paper industries, effectively removing color and stains from fabrics and paper pulp. As a precursor in chemical synthesis, sodium chlorite contributes to the production of chlorine dioxide, a robust oxidizing agent with applications in various chemical processes and disinfection. Its antimicrobial properties make sodium chlorite valuable in disinfection and sterilization, finding use in healthcare, food processing, and the manufacturing of medical equipment. Approved as a food additive in some regions, it also plays a role in the food and beverage industry by controlling microbial growth. Additionally, sodium chlorite is employed in the oil and gas sector for well stimulation and bactericidal purposes. Its application extends to wastewater treatment, where it aids in odor control and reducing microbial activity . As a surface disinfectant, sodium chlorite ensures hygiene in spaces such as hospitals and laboratories, underlining its significance in promoting public health and safety.
Sodium chlorite is driving the water treatment market as a versatile solution to a myriad of challenges. Its efficacy as a disinfectant against bacteria and viruses positions it as a critical component in water disinfection, while its bleaching capabilities enhance water quality by removing color and odors.
