Asia-Pacific Bitumen Industry Analysis By Grades, By Product, By Application & By Countries With COVID-19 Impact | Market Outlook 2017-2030

Market Overview

In Asia Pacific, China itself is the 13.2 million metric ton asphalt industry attributing to new construction and maintenance/repairs. By identifying a solvent or solvent blend, capable of selective flocculation and precipitation of the clay−water clusters while precipitating only a minor amount of asphaltene bitumen recovery can be improved. Water-based bitumen extraction from Athabasca oil sands involves four steps: Oil sand lump size reduction, bitumen liberation, aeration, flotation and interactions. Bitumen demand in Asian countries is strong, however China have been suffering from oversupply and accounting for the lion’s share i.e. nearly two-third of total bitumen consumption. It is predicted that in the upcoming years (probably after 5-6 years) Asian bitumen market will be totally oversupplied too.

Shell’s pioneering inventions in colored binders, low-temperature solutions; low-odor bitumen and underwater adhesives have set the industry standards for these applications and range of solutions from airports and highways to roofing and Formula One tracks.
