WORLD CHLORINE AND CAUSTIC SODA
Third Edition
The latest in-depth report from Harriman Chemsult
Although the world economy is gradually emerging from the recent recession, the global chlor-alkali market continues to face a number of significant issues. How these play out will determine the development of the industry in the years to come.
On the chlorine side of the business, the ongoing malaise in vinyls is having a significant impact: how will chlorine recover and could limitations on output in turn affect caustic soda? Caustic soda demand was also hard hit in the recession, especially in the important alumina and pulp markets. Although recovering, how fast will this rebound be, and what are the prospects for previously announced pulp and alumina projects? On a regional basis, Asia has undergone most growth, but what is the outlook in China? What are the prospects in the European market, which entered a period of significant change over the past few years?
The Third Edition of Harriman Chemsult’s publication World Chlorine and Caustic Soda addresses these issues and many more. The study provides a detailed insight into this truly global business and is the ideal reference volume. All major aspects of the sector are covered for both chlorine and caustic soda; as well as historical and forecast data, an in-depth discussion of important market issues is also included.
