The new systems will be renovated, retrofitted, and modernized to reduce particulate emissions and comply with the air quality standards set for the power plants.
Increasing Health Concerns
Rising health concerns among individuals are supporting the air pollution control systems market growth. Poor air quality causes various respiratory issues among individuals, which is catalyzing the demand for solutions that lower the pollutants in the environment. Besides this, manufacturers in the industry are introducing equipment that benefits in lowering pollution. For instance, Devic Earth, the leader in air pollution control equipment, launched the world's first-ever "Clean-Air-as-a-Service" on 15 July 2021 to help improve ambient air quality in India. Their state-of-the-art air pollution control technology, 'Pure Skies', is targeted at addressing the problem of large indoor or outdoor area coverage at lowest cost while providing an affordable plug and play solution, with zero hassle to the end users and highest efficacy of up to 90%.
Introduction of Advanced Technologies
Top players in the market are introducing new technologies that benefit in improving air quality by incorporating advanced features, such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and the Internet of Things (IoT). On 9 March 2023, Siemens Smart Infrastructure launched Connect Box, an open and easy-to-use, the IoT solution designed to manage small to medium-sized buildings. It is a user-friendly approach for monitoring building performance, with the potential to optimize energy efficiency by up to 30% and to improve indoor air quality in small to medium sized buildings, including schools, retail shops, apartments, or small offices.

Scrubbers account for the majority of the market share
Scrubbers are air pollution control devices that use liquid to wash unwanted pollutants from a gas stream. Scrubber systems, such as chemical scrubbers, and gas scrubbers are a diverse group of air pollution control devices. They are beneficial in removing particulate matter or gases from an industrial exhaust or flue gas stream. They are a good choice for handling high-temperature, and high-humidity gas streams. In addition, they are compact in size and can be retrofitted into an existing industrial facility.
On 4 January 2023, B&W strengthens environmental offerings with Hamon Research-Cottrell emissions control technologies. Moreover, Hamon Research-Cottrell environmental technologies enhance B&W's already-robust portfolio of advanced air quality control system (AQCS) technologies and processes, including wet and dry electrostatic precipitators, fabric filters, wet flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems (scrubbers) including a wet gas scrubber specifically designed for oil and gas refineries, spray dryer absorbers (SDA), and circulating dry scrubbers (CDS).

Power generation holds the largest share of the industry
The rising adoption of air pollution control systems in power generation due to stringent environmental regulations is contributing to the market growth. The power generation sector is rapidly employing these systems to maintain CSR initiatives. On 5 August 2022, Taketoyo Thermal Power Station Unit 5, where JERA Co., Inc. engaged in replacement work through its subsidiary JERA Power Taketoyo G.K., began commercial operation. Thermal Power Station Unit 5 is a high-efficiency coal-fired power station that uses an ultra-supercritical (USC) power generation system. With a generating capacity of 1,070MW, it contributes to the stability of the electricity supply. By co-firing woody biomass fuel, it reduces carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions as much as possible to mitigate environmental impact.
