Needle Coke Market: Dynamics
The demand for needle coke is increasing in the manufacture of electrodes and batteries. Needle coke plays a major role in the steel industry. It is used as a raw material in graphite electrode production. Graphite electrodes are further used in steel manufacturing. The expansion of the metal industry in developed and developing economies is driving the global needle coke market.
Needle coke is an important material used as a heating element in electric arc furnace (EAF) for steel production. Steel manufacturers are preferring the EAF method for the production of steel over the blast furnace-blast oxygen furnace (BOF) processes, owing to stricter environmental regulations. The 0.2 kg to 0.3 kg of graphite electrode is required to produce 1 ton of steel through the BOF process. However, the 0.7 kg to 0.8 kg of graphite electrode is required to produce the same amount of steel by employing the EAF process.
The expansion of the nuclear industry is a major factor driving the global needle coke market. Needle coke is a raw material used in the production of nuclear graphite, which is widely employed in applications required for nuclear industry such as nuclear furnaces.
Rise in the number of nuclear projects and increase in population are expected to drive the nuclear industry in the near future. Growth in global population and economy; and rapid urbanization are likely to boost the demand for energy over the next few years. The United Nations (UN) estimates that the world’s population is estimated to increase from 7.6 billion in 2017 to 9.7 billion by 2050.
