A fermentation defoamer is a chemical agent that minimizes and hinders the creation of foam in industrial process liquids. Fermentation defoamers reduces existing foam and prevent the formation of further foam. Commonly used anti-foaming agents are insoluble oils, silicones, water-based defoamers and others. Generally, fermentation defoamer is insoluble in the foaming medium and has surface active properties. An important feature of a fermentation defoamer product is a low viscosity and a facility to spread rapidly on foamy surfaces.

Market Dynamic- Global Fermentation Defoamer Market

The global fermentation defoamer market has been seeing tremendous growth from the past few years. Primary growth factors such as increasing demand for food & beverage products across the world, increased demand for biofuels and rapid growth in the pharmaceutical industry specially in developing countries are attributed to the growth of the global fermentation defoamer market. Besides, increasing use of fermentation defoamer in wide range of application in the pharmaceutical industry during the production of bacterial vaccines, steroids, antibiotics, gene therapy vectors, and therapeutic proteins is further contributing to the market growth.

COVID 19 Impact on Fermentation Defoamer Market Report 

The exclusive COVID 19 impact analysis report by Axiom MRC provides a 360 degree analysis of micro and macro-economic factors on the fermentation defoamer market. In addition, complete analysis of changes on fermentation defoamer market expenditure, economic and international policies on supply and demand side. The report also studies the impact of pandemic on global economies, international trade, business investments, GDP and marketing strategies of key players present in the market. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the global fermentation defoamer market and defoamer manufacturers on a slight negative level in the early pandemic period. This is owing to the decreased demand for end use products and decreased production of food and beverage, dairy and alcoholic beverage products during pandemic period as many manufacturing and processing facilities were closed.
