Hydrogen peroxide is the simplest form of peroxide that acts as a strong oxidizing and bleaching agent. It can be manufactured through various manufacturing processes; however, anthraquinone autoxidation is the most widely used process. Hydrogen peroxide is used in various end-use industries such as paper & pulp, chemical, mining, wastewater treatment, and electronics due to its eco-friendly applications. Inhalation of hydrogen peroxide can cause irritation of the nose, throat, and respiratory tract. Accumulation of fluid in the lungs may occur in severe cases.
Diluted solutions of hydrogen peroxide may cause bleaching or whitening of the skin. Contact with high concentration of hydrogen peroxide can result in severe burns, blisters, irritation and redness, ulcers, and permanent scarring. If high concentration of hydrogen peroxide comes in contact with the eyes it can result in conjunctivitis, pain, severe eye burns, sensitivity to light, and also permanent injury, including blindness. Rapid pressurization and peroxide/organic vapor phase explosions are also some critical safety concerns related to hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, potential health hazards associated with hydrogen peroxide can hamper the global hydrogen peroxide market.

However, the steady rise in demand across key end-use industries will result in promising growth opportunities for the global hydrogen peroxide market over the report’s forecast period. According to the report, the market was valued at US$ 2.44 Bn in 2016 and is likely to reach US$ 3.68 Bn by 2025, expanding at a CAGR of 4.7% between 2017 and 2025.
Paper and Pulp Industry to Remain Highly Promising for Hydrogen Peroxide Market
The key applications of hydrogen peroxide covered in the report include usage across paper and pulp, chemical, waste water treatment, and mining industries. Of these, the paper and pulp industry accounted for a substantial share of the global hydrogen peroxide market in 2016. Hydrogen peroxide is extensively used as a bleaching and oxidizing agent in the paper and pulp industry. Use of hydrogen peroxide helps achieve a grade of brightness that is suitable for high-grade magazine papers, board, and tissue products. Demand for hydrogen peroxide is expected to increase from this industry in the near future owing to increasing usage of paper across the globe. Advent of internet and digitalization has reduced the use of newsprint paper in developed countries. However, rising demand for paper in personal care and packaging industries in developing countries has propelled the overall demand for paper.
