Noble Gases Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Trends, Analysis, Growth and Forecast (2012 - 2018)

Noble gas includes helium, argon, xenon, radon, krypton and neon which have similar properties under standard conditions. Noble gases are all tasteless, odourless, colourless, and non flammable gases. Helium is obtained from natural gas whereas argon, krypton, neon, and xenon are separated from the air by using the process of fractional distillation and liquefaction of gases. Noble gases play an important role in industries such as space exploration, lighting, and welding. Noble gases have applications in superconducting magnets, cryogenics, semiconductors, satellite propellants, plasma displays and television, gas chromatography, creation of inert atmosphere, light bulbs, excimer lasers, and medicine. Geographically the market is segmented into the U.S., Japan, Canada, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East.

Noble gases can be segmented into industrial gases and speciality gases. Speciality gases include krypton, neon, and xenon whereas industrial gases include argon, helium, and neon. Helium is a widely used industrial gas and is expected to fuel the growth of the segment. Since 2011, the industry is facing a shortage of helium because the demand is exceeding the current production capacity. Both industrial and speciality gases are expected to show moderate growth in the market and onsite gas segment is the fastest growing one in both industrial and speciality noble gases. The supply argon, krypton, and xenon which are a by-product of large scale oxygen production are driven by the demand for oxygen and not the rare gas.

Environment and semiconductor are the fastest growing application segments in the noble gas industry. The U.S. continues to be the largest market for noble gases followed by Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East. Increase in concentration of semiconductor, food and health care industries in India and china will lead to more opportunities for the noble gas industry in the region. It is expected that the noble gas manufactures worldwide will continue to grow as the growth in global market of healthcare, electronics, and the energy sector will drive the demand.
