The fatty amines are used as surfactants in various industries. Fatty amines are characterized as any variation of amine that is associated with at least eight carbon atoms in a hydrocarbon chain. These amines are regularly placed in oleochemicals and are fabricated by the process of hydrogenation in greasy nitriles. These are obtained by hydrogenation of fatty nitriles, which are produced by the reaction between triglycerides, fatty acids, or fatty esters and ammonia with the elimination of two molecules of water at high temperature in the presence of dehydrating catalyst (such as silica gel, alumina, or iron-based catalysts). The main types of product types of fatty amines are primary fatty amines, secondary fatty amines, and tertiary fatty amines. Primary fatty amines are used as cationic surfactants (textile softeners, dyeing aids, anti-static agents, pigment aids, bactericides, and germicides), corrosion inhibitors, amphoteric surfactants (shampoos and detergents), asphalt emulsifiers, anticaking agents for fertilizers, releasing agents for molded rubber parts, fuel additives, and sludge inhibitors.

The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global architectural, engineering consultants and related services market is expected to grow from $1,773.06 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 3.8%. The rise in demand for environmentally safe and certified buildings is expected to drive the architecture and engineering services market. Consumers, state governments, and NGOs are working towards making residential and commercial buildings more energy efficient and self-sufficient. Private constructors and real estate developers are redesigning projects to fulfil these demands, leading to many benefits such as an increase in rental and resale value, home-owner satisfaction, lower operating costs, and regional or international recognition. The US Green Building Council launched the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification program to establish a set of rating systems that define the construction, design, and maintenance of residential projects. According to a study by the US Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED-certified buildings have managed to reduce carbon, energy, waste, and water waste by almost 30–97% and operating costs by more than 9%. Major companies in the architecture, engineering, and other related services market include PowerChina, Fluor Corporation, AECOM Technology Corporation, WorleyParsons Limited, McDermott International Inc., Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., John Wood Group PLC, KBR Inc., Babcock International, and WSP Global Inc. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a restraint on the architectural, engineering, and related services market in 2020 as governments globally imposed lockdowns and restricted trade, thereby limiting the need for professional services. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China and has spread globally, including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of "lock down." The outbreak has had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the architectural, engineering, and related services market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan' event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. Architectural and engineering consultants are using 5D building information modelling (BIM) to create dynamic building designs that can be altered at later stages of the project. BIM software is a tool used to design buildings and structures, including lighting, HVAC systems, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. It can also be used for clash detection, cost estimation, and safety analysis. 5D building information modelling (BIM) involves creating architectural designs that can be modified and customized in real time. This system collects data from different project teams and helps collaborate with the entire construction chain, eliminating project delays. For instance, construction management company The Korte Company is using 5D BIM technology for project design, planning, and cost estimation, thereby enabling faster decision-making. The Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation in the Indian state of Maharashtra is using 5D BIM in its construction projects worth $3 billion to reduce costs and litigation.
