Utilization as a ‘Cryogenic Food Grade Gas’ in Food Processing Applications to Spur Demand
The implementation of cryogenic solutions in high-quality food processing has been gaining significant momentum, driven by the increasing clamor for food preservation and safety. Use of liquefied carbon dioxide in cryogenic freezing and cooling applications is evolving as indispensable for adding to the refrigeration value of food products, primarily for meat, poultry, and baked goods.
With multiple advantages over mechanical freezing, implementation of cryogenic freezing in food applications has become imperative to attain economic viability. The demand for cryogenic freezing across food processing applications is likely to pick the pace, which is expected to propel the growth of CO2 market in the forthcoming years.
Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) in Oil and Gas Industries Complementing Sales of Carbon Dioxide
As per a revelation by the American Petroleum Institute, the oil & gas industry has been registering a burgeoning demand for carbon dioxide from last 35 years for additional oil recovery. An analysis by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) conveys that around 137 billion barrels of potential oil resources are recoverable through carbon dioxide enhanced oil recovery, with close to 67 billion barrels recoverable at the cost of around US$ 85 per barrel.
This statistical data provides substantial credence to the fact that carbon dioxide usage is highly likely to offer potential benefits for enhanced oil recovery (EOH) in the oil and gas industry, underpinning the growth of CO2 market. Furthermore, the carbon dioxide market is also likely to benefit from the rising intervention of governments worldwide to promote and incentivize enhanced oil recovery techniques.

Growing Eminence in Manufacture of Precipitated Calcium Carbonate to Offer Key Revenue Streams
Precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) is extensively used across a multitude of applications and industries, with carbon dioxide being a vital part of its manufacture. Carbon dioxide is used during manufacturing of PCC, in a bid to establish a uniformity in the particle size distribution.
Tailored versions of PCC have been picking pace across multiple domains such as paper industry, polymer applications, and healthcare applications. This increasing vigor of PCC across a diverse set of applications, the carbon dioxide market is further likely to carry promising aspects for the carbon dioxide market.

Transportation Concerns of Carbon Dioxide to Adversely Impact Market Potential
Growth of carbon dioxide market is expected to be adversely impacted by the concerns apropos of transportation. Deployment of a pipeline infrastructure for transporting carbon dioxide has been in practice for decades, but absence of standards authenticating pipeline quality is one of the prominent limitations hindering the market growth.
The transportation of carbon dioxide in bulk entails high scale maintenance, holding back growth aspects of the market. Moreover, international protocols, such as the Kyoto Protocol, can also have an adverse impact on the transportation process, if a massive amount escapes into the atmosphere from a truck or ship carrying carbon dioxide.
