Like many industries, the chemical industry is benefiting from advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and cloud computing capabilities. Both large tech companies and small startups are capitalizing on the capabilities of AI to spur development in the chemical industry. Research and development, process design, supply chain management, and predictive maintenance are the […]
How large can the AI market grow?
Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), cloud computing, and other technologies are leading to rapid implementation in various industries around the world. These developments have only been possible due to recent increases in computing power and availability of vast datasets needed to train AI programs. This along with improved algorithms for training […]
Key drivers for SCR systems for NOx removal
Traditional power plants produce a mix of toxic gases as they burn fuels such as coal and natural gas for power. These emissions include greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and acid rain-forming oxides of sulfur (SOx) and nitrogen (NOx). NOx can cause severe respiratory problems, stimulate algae growth in waterways decreasing water […]
What goes into making a Techno-Economic Analysis
A techno-economic analysis (TEA) is a very useful tool to evaluate the economic performance of an industrial process or product. The TEA can be used to study the impacts of implementing a new technology into a current process, optimize existing processes, or to evaluate the economic feasibility of a process before an investment is made. […]

Tear down of a modern detergent
There are two forms of detergents that dominate the global laundry market – liquid and powder detergents. Liquid detergents are more effective for lifting out everyday stains and ground-in dirt while powder detergents are better with food, greasy, or oily stains. While liquid detergents are mostly common in the U.S., powder detergents are popular elsewhere […]
Tie the Bond 2: Global tie layer resins market assessment
As discussed last month, polymers are increasingly designed keeping very specific properties in mind. Thus, multi-layered polymers are often required when multiple properties are needed in a single structure. Depending on the type of polymer used for the targeted properties, tie layer resins are often required to produce these multi-layered structures. Exhibit 1 below shows […]
Portfolio growth and churn at Saudi Aramco
Saudi Aramco, the Saudi Arabian state oil company is the world’s largest integrated oil and gas company. It recently disclosed its financials for the first time providing great insight into its footprint, economics, and financial and operational performance.

A promising future beckons for Vaca Muerta
The Vaca Muerta shale play in Argentina has one of the greatest oil reserves in the world. The field has attracted investments from global majors such as Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Shell, many of which have started shifting into full development on their blocks in the play last year. There has been study progress in Vaca […]
Tie the Bond: Global tie layer resins market assessment
Polymers are increasingly being designed keeping very specific properties in mind. This often requires multi-layered polymers when multiple properties are needed in a single structure. Depending on the characteristics desired, the final structure can include anywhere from three to 11 layers. Multi-layered structures using different resins are difficult to manufacture especially when two dissimilar layers, […]
