The increasing use of bentonite in iron ore pelletizing, pet litter, drilling mud, civil engineering and refining applications will fuel the product demand. Rising application scope of bentonite as a bonding agent in non-ferrous and ferrous foundries is expected to propel product growth over the forecast period.
Sodium bentonite is employed as a key constituent of drilling fluids for boring holes of small diameter in environmental monitoring wells, and mineral exploration. Furthermore, it is used in horizontal directional drilling as lubricants to place pipelines and utility cables under highways, streets, buildings & environmentally sensitive areas without disruptive surface trenching. The growth of aforementioned application segments is expected to fuel product demand over the forecast period.
Bentonite possesses properties like water absorption which makes it an excellent sealant for environmental applications. Bentonite products are also used in boring tunnels, subways & highways and pipelines installation to transport sewage, storm water & drinking water. This is expected to fuel product need over the next eight years.
