Dried soap stock adds nutrient value as feed improves pelletizing and provides flexibility in utilization and processing. It is often treated with a strong mineral acid and is converted into a crude mixture of fatty acids, known as acidified soap stock. This mixture is widely used as a calorific component in animal feed. However, factors such as increasing feed prices, food shortages, and shrinking water resources are likely to hinder the growth of the dried soap stock market in KSA. In addition, pure acid oil is cheap and acts as a good source of biodiesel. Both palmitic and stearic acids add hardness to soaps and is widely available in Saudi Arabia.

In addition, demand for mixed soft oil fatty acid distillate is the expected to drive the fatty acid distillates market in Egypt during the forecast period. The animal feed industry is a vital resource in Sudan. Dried soap stock is widely incorporated in animal feeds and poultry nutrition, as an effective energy source. Moreover, there are large number of soap manufacturing industries in Sudan, which use various edible oil by-products as a cost-effective alternative for the production of bio-degradable soap with natural ingredients. Palmitic acid contributes stable creamy lather to soaps. Moreover, it is also used for personal care products and intermediate chemicals. Thus, the market for palmitic acid in Sudan is anticipated to develop during the forecast period. Additionally, the demand for fatty acid distillates in Sudan is primarily driven by the agricultural end use such as fertilizer (covered under other end use segment) and animal feed. Additionally Egypt has seen significant rise in the price of raw feed materials.
