Dublin, July 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Middle East & Africa Liquid Nitrogen Market Forecast to 2031 - Regional Analysis - by Manufacturing Method and End-use Industry" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Middle East & Africa liquid nitrogen market was valued at US$ 1.40 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 1.98 billion by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 4.4% from 2023 to 2031.



Development of Sustainable and Lab-Friendly Liquid Nitrogen Bolsters Middle East & Africa Liquid Nitrogen Market

Traditionally, liquid nitrogen is obtained from cryogenic separation and pressure swing adsorption process in which the nitrogen gets separated from atmospheric air and then processed into a liquid format. However, the process emits greenhouse gas emissions, increasing the environmental concern among manufacturers. Thus, manufacturers are now developing environment-friendly production processes to limit the impact on the environment. For instance, these processes include the use of biomass that has been gasified with nitrogen. This technique produces liquid nitrogen by mixing hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide gas into a gaseous state.

This trend of advanced development of liquid nitrogen offers high efficiency of industrial processes for producing liquid nitrogen; the process is also eco-friendly and user-friendly. It does not cause greenhouse gas emissions, making this process a popular option among manufacturers. ECHEMI GLOBAL CO is a leading chemical manufacturer and offers sustainable and lab-friendly liquid nitrogen. Thus, the development of sustainable and lab-friendly liquid nitrogen is expected to bolster market growth in the coming years.
