The global rice husk ash market is projected to reach USD 2.54 billion by 2021, at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2016 to 2021. The construction industry is one of the largest end users of rice husk ash (RHA). The increasing urbanization, infrastructure development in emerging economies, and the growing demand for cost-effective construction solutions have influenced the construction industry to innovate in terms of mineral admixtures. Huge differences can be witnessed in structures built today as compared to the ones built over a decade ago. Among the various commercially available mineral admixtures, including fly ash and silica fume, RHA is considered to be the most cost-efficient solution for a wide range of applications and requirements.

On the basis of application, the global RHA market has been segmented into building & construction, silica, steel industry, ceramics & refractory, rubber, and others, which include paints, cosmetics, agrochemicals, and flame retardants. The silica application segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2016 and 2021 as RHA has a large amount of silica, and its extraction is also economically viable making RHA an ideal source for silica. In the food industry, silica is used as an anti-cracking agent. Silica is also used in cosmetics processing. Additionally, the demand from the construction industry for fine amorphous silica for producing high performance cementing materials for marine, nuclear power plants, and bridges has been positively influencing the growth of the silica segment over the years.
By silica content, the RHA market has been segmented into silica content between 80-84%, silica content between 85-89%, silica content between 90-94%, and silica content more than or equal to 95%. The 90-94% segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2016 and 2021, as it caters to the majority of the applications, such as building & construction, steel industry, ceramics & refractory, silica, flame retardants, and specialty paints, among others. The increasing use of RHA with 90-94% silica content in the building & construction and silica extraction applications is expected to contribute to the segment’s high growth.
By region, the Middle East & Africa RHA market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2016 and 2021, owing to heavy investments in the construction and silica extraction application segments. In the Middle East & Africa region, the transportation, power, manufacturing, and construction industries are expected to emerge as the major drivers for the RHA market in the coming years. Growth in the economy of GCC countries, such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Iran, has also led to extensive infrastructure development in the region, thereby propelling the demand for RHA in the Middle East & Africa region.
