CALCIUM OXALATE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global calcium oxalate market size was USD 0.011 billion in 2024 and market is expected to reach USD 0.012 billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific is dominating the calcium oxalate market share in 2025.

Lime oxalate, also known as calcium oxalate, is an oxalate of a calcium salt with the chemical formula CaC2O4(H2O) x, where x is a variable that runs from 0 to 3. Insoluble in water and changing to an oxide when heated to temperatures above 200 degrees Celsius, calcium oxalate is a white, odorless powder. For all varieties of oxalates, including calcium oxalate, oxalic acid serves as the main raw material. Nitric acid and vanadium pentoxide act as catalysts in the oxidation of glucose or other carbohydrates to produce it. Heating sodium in the proximity of an alkali catalyst produces calcium oxalate, which is then transformed into oxalic acid by reacting with sulfuric acid. But at the moment, calcium oxalate is manufactured using sugarcane syrup and Molasses.

Oxalic acid serves as the primary raw material for all types of oxalates, including calcium oxalate. With the use of nitric acid and a catalyst called vanadium pentoxide, it is produced by oxidizing glucose or other carbohydrates. Calcium oxalate is created by heating sodium in the presence of an alkali catalyst and combining it with sulfuric acid. Oxalate synthesis and the isolation of rare earth metals are two examples of the many uses for calcium oxalate. A sizeable portion of the market for applications is accounted for by ceramics production. The two main drivers driving the calcium oxalate market are an increase in the usage of ceramic tiles and calcium oxalate in the building sector.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Halt on Manufacturing Operations to Slower Market Growth"

The COVID-19 epidemic had a detrimental effect on the market. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the global calcium oxalate market is probably going to slow down, which will generate decreased demand and supply chain disruptions. Flight cancellations travel bans, quarantines, restaurant closures, restrictions on all indoor and outdoor events, the declaration of states of emergency in more than 40 countries, a significant slowdown in the supply chain, and stock market volatility are just a few of the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak. The calcium oxalate market is experiencing a severe economic crisis. This is anticipated to cause a market decline in Asia-Pacific.

LATEST TRENDS

"Demand for Ceramic Glazes Due to Urbanization to Promote Industry Progress"

Due to urbanization, there is a sharp increase in demand for ceramic tiles. The number of people moving to metropolitan regions is expected to increase over the next several years, and more than half of the world's population already resides there. Ceramic glazes, which are used to create ceramic tiles for floors and walls, mostly consist of calcium oxalate as a component. To ensure a consistent supply of calcium oxalate for the end-user market, ceramic tile producers are forging partnerships with distributors and wholesalers of the substance.

CALCIUM OXALATE MARKET SEGMENTATION
