New Phytoextraction Strategies Help Stakeholders Tackle Issues of Heavy Metal Pollution in Soil

Innovations in phytoremediation are creating incremental opportunities for manufacturers in the metal scavenging agents market. The prevalence of heavy metal pollution is one of the key drivers for the metal scavenging agents market. Companies are increasing their production capacities of chelating compounds as stakeholders involved in phytoremediation are increasingly benefitting from heavy metal tolerance, with the removal of toxic ions in sensitive sights.

Stakeholders in the metal scavenging agents value chain are adopting new strategies for phytoremediation. These involve increased adoption of physical and chemical processes of chelation that are steering market growth. Another winning strategy to alter the metal availability in polluted soil is the technique of chelate-induced phytoextraction. Likewise, synthetic chelating agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is found to reduce heavy metal pollution in soil.

Companies in the metal scavenging agents market are developing new biodegradable chelating agents such as nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) and ethylenediaminedisuccinic acid (EDDS) to enhance the efficacy of phytoextraction.

8-hydroxyquinoline Derivatives Serve as Alternative Solution to CQ for Treatment of NDDs

New developments in metal-based drugs and chelating agents are creating a scope for new treatment options in neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). This phenomena is relatable, since the pharmaceutical industry accounts for the highest volume in the metal scavenging agents market, with an estimated output of ~5,300 kgs by 2027.

Disruptive disorders affecting the brain are increasing the demand for efficacious metal-based drugs. This trend is leading to growth of the metal scavenging agents market. Other drivers such as high prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disorder are further catalyzing market growth. Hence, companies in the metal scavenging agents market are increasing research efforts to understand the different factors related to NDDs, to introduce novel treatment methods and therapies in the healthcare landscape.

Clioquinol (CQ) is a novel chelating agent that is found to showcase promising results to reduce cognitive deterioration in patients. However, CQ cannot be used for large-scale synthesis, and has led to side effects such as the induction of myelinopathies in patients. Hence, manufacturers in the metal scavenging agents space are now increasing the production of second generation 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives that are found to improve the quality of life in patients.

Analysts’ Viewpoint

Manufacturers are using metal protein attenuating compounds to correct abnormal concentrations of metals in the drugs meant for NDDs. They are expanding their business in the F&B space to avoid instances of flavor deterioration in bakery products. However, the metal scavenging agents market is highly consolidated, with only five major players holding ~70% of the global market share. Hence, emerging market players should gain expertise in biodegradable agents, as conventional agents lead to complications of metal leaching in the area of phytoremediation. They should develop novel silica-based scavengers, since silica dominates the market in terms or value and volume.
