The president of Abiquim, Ciro Marino, said the Brazilian <strong>chemical industry<\/strong> is the sixth-largest in the world; still, it could leap to the fourth position. \u201cFew countries have the potential Brazil has,\u201d said Marino, presenting figures for the sector, which generates 2 million direct and indirect jobs, around USD 190 billion in revenue, and accounts for 11% of the Brazilian industrial Gross Domestic Product (GDP).<\/p>\n<p>According to Abiquim, demand for chemical products in Brazil had an average annual growth of 3.1% from 1990 to 2021. <strong>Imports<\/strong> played a \u201ckey role in this phase of economic recovery Brazil is going through,\u201d detailed the entity, informing in 2021, imports of chemical products accounted for 46% of the domestic market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConsidering what chemistry makes, starting from natural inputs, with Brazil\u2019s wealth, being in sixth place is subpar from our possibility. We think the fourth position would be very reasonable,\u201d added the Abiquim director.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by El\u00fasio Brasileiro<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-313879\">\u00a9Wladimir Bulgar\/Science Photo\/AFP<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Brazilian Chemical Industry Association reported the sector could obtain the amount by 2024.
