Global Hydrochloric Acid Electrolysis Market – Overview
HCl electrolysis is cheifly deployed where hydrogen chloride or hydrochloric acid recycling is desired. Hydrogen chloride is a byproduct of numerous processes in chemical industry, which use chlorine due to its high reactivity for selective formation of desired products. In many cases, chlorine is subsequently removed and the final products are chlorine-free. Simply recycling the HCl through electrolysis obviates the need for on-site chlorine production even the transport of chlorine.
The global hydrochloric acid electrolysis market analysis is a very dynamic market and is expected to witness high growth over the forecast period. The growth of the HCl electrolysis market is majorly influenced by the growing demand for making businesses free of volatile chlorine and HCl prices. Furthermore, developing on site HCl electrolysis technology nullifies the need for developing new chlor-alkali plants for chlorine production. However, existence of other commercially available technology for the production of chlorine and environmental impacts of chlorine, are likely to act as restraints for the market.
With the increasing consumption of chlorine related products around the world, there is a need for safe and economical production of chlorine techniques. Chlor-alkali demand increases in countries with higher GDP growth rates such as China and India where there is a huge demand for chlorine. Increasing environmental regulations and stringent government policies in these regions are forcing chemical manufacturers to look for less energy intensive and high product output processes such as HCl electrolysis.

July 2010 - Uhde has been awarded an engineering and procurement contract for the construction of a hydrochloric acid electrolysis plant by Yantai Juli Isocyanate Co. Ltd. The plant, with a production capacity of 100,000 tpa hydrochloric acid, will be constructed at Laiyang, Shandong Province, China. Uhde's scope of supplies includes the process licence, major components of the engineering package, supply of the electrolysers, and assistance with the construction and commissioning of the plant.
Apr 2010 - Bayer MaterialScience signed a contract with plant engineering company Uhde to build a new plant for chlorine production based on common salt. The plant, which will have an annual capacity of 20,000 metric tons and built at Chempark Krefeld-Uerdingen in Germany.
November 2008- At BISS (Bayer Integrated Site Shanghai), Bayer Material Science has started a new hydrochloric acid electrolysis plant to supply the 350,000 tonnes/year MDI train with chlorine. It uses the energy saving Oxygen Depolarized Cathode technology, which has been developed by Bayer and partners.
