Chitosan is the deacetylated form of chitin, a biopolymer extracted from the shells of crustaceans such as shrimp, crabs, and others. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAOSTAT), around 750,000 tons of crustaceans’ shell waste is generated annually in Europe. In the processing of crustaceans, around 40% of the total mass is the shell whereas rest is consumed.

This shell waste is characterized with high amount of chitin that is further processed to produce chitosan, glucosamine, and other derivatives. On an average, a waste crustacean shell comprises of 30-40% protein, 30-50% calcium carbonate, and approximately 30% of chitin. The shell waste containing chitin is treated with specific alkalis and acids under optimal reaction conditions.

After undergoing successive demineralization and deproteinization, chitin is obtained that is further deacetylated to produce chitosan. Apart from crustacean shell waste, chitosan can also be produced from certain fungi. However, low amount of chitin in the cell walls of fungi and the absence of an optimal procedure for extraction of chitin on a commercial scale makes it a less used source for obtaining chitosan.

The global chitosan market report focuses on chitosan and its major applications including, water treatment, food & beverage, cosmetics, biomedical & pharmaceuticals, bioprinting & agriculture, and others.

Furthermore, the report includes market segmentation based on sources of chitosan such as shrimp, crab, krill, and squid. The report does not put much emphasis on the chitosan that can be produced from the chitin present in the fungus cells. It presents chitosan market size in terms of both value and volume. The data has been gathered majorly from the secondary sources such as company publications, Hoovers, Factiva, and others. The data has been validated after analysis from the C-level executives and directors of the companies present in the global chitosan market.

The major factors driving the chitosan industry are the abundant raw material availability and emerging applications from various end use segments. The ongoing R&D activities focused on finding novel applications of chitosan as well as developing the existing technology is also expected to contribute towards the growth of chitosan market during the analysis period. However, the high production cost of chitosan and its derivatives and product inconsistency due to seasonal, regional, and chemical modification could hamper the market growth.
