Brown Hydrogen Market Size and Forecasts (2021 - 2031), Global and Regional Share, Trends, and Growth Opportunity Analysis

MARKET OVERVIEW
Brown hydrogen is created through the coal gasification process. Coal gasification is the process of converting solid coal into gas. Methane gas is produced during gasification, breaking down coal into its chemical constituents. Under high pressure and temperatures, coal is exposed to oxygen and hot steam. Gasification systems involve the partial oxidation of coal with steam and oxygen at high temperatures and pressures. As a result, synthesis gas is produced, a mixture of carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and some steam. The synthesis gas, known as syngas, is then reacted with water to increase the hydrogen yield. The gas can be cleaned conventionally in order to recover hydrogen and the high concentration carbon dioxide stream, which is then disposed of after isolation.

MARKET SCOPE
The "Global Brown Hydrogen Market Analysis to 2031" is a specialized and in-depth study with a special focus on the global market trend analysis. The report aims to provide an overview of the brown hydrogen market with detailed market segmentation by technology, industry, and geography. The report provides key statistics on the market status of the leading brown hydrogen market players and offers key trends and opportunities in the market.

MARKET SEGMENTATION

•  Based on technology, the market is segmented coal gasification with carbon capture storage and coal gasification without carbon capture storage.
  
•  Based on industry, the market is segmented into refining, chemicals, iron and steel, and other.
  

MARKET DYNAMICS
Drivers:

•  The global brown hydrogen market is driven by factors such as low raw material cost, low production cost, and raw material availability.
  
•  Alternative hydrogen production processes are relatively more expensive. For example, green hydrogen costs more to produce than brown hydrogen. In addition, the production method of brown hydrogen, namely coal gasification, is well established, especially in the Asia-Pacific region.
  
•  The growing interest in coal gasification with carbon capture and storage is expected to provide lucrative opportunities over the forecast period.
  

Restraints:

•  The high carbon footprint of coal gasification hinders the market. Moreover, the development of the renewable energy-based hydrogen market, also known as the green hydrogen market, is expected to restrain the market growth.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON BROWN HYDROGEN MARKET
The outbreak of COVID-19 in China, which spread to many other countries around the world, halted industrial manufacturing, which hampered brown hydrogen production as well. The major players in the global brown hydrogen market include Air Liquide, Air Products Inc., and Bloom Energy. COVID-19 has severely impacted their businesses. Raw material purchases were also hampered as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. The most noteworthy impact of the pandemic on global supply chains will be on hydrogen technologies, which require a well-managed supply chain and a substantial amount of capital to demonstrate. However, the brown hydrogen market is expected to witness notable growth in the forecast period.
