Air Pollution Control Systems Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Type (Electrostatic Precipitators (ESP), Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD), Scrubbers, Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), Fabric Filters), and by End Users (Power Generation, Cement Industry, Iron and Steel Industry, Chemical Industry and Others), Forecast Period (2025-2035)
Air pollution control system market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 9.4% for the forecast period (2025-2035). The growth in the market is driven by the increase in environmental pollution concerns and changes in strict government regulations that aim to reduce industrial emissions, thereby driving the growth of the market. The air pollution control system plays an important role in reducing the release of harmful pollutants from industrial and commercial sources such as Particulate Matter (PM), Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), and Nitrogen Oxides (NOX). The market is witnessing increasing attention to energy-efficient and durable solutions in the market which include significant progress in filtration and scrubbing technologies. The adoption of electrostatic precipitators, active carbon filters, and catalytic converters is increasing in industries such as manufacturing, power generation, and chemicals. Certainly, these devices are integrated with IoT & AI-driven tools that provide access to real-time data collection.
The global air pollution control systems market is segmented by type and end users. Based on the type, the market is sub-segmented into electrostatic precipitators (ESP), flue gas desulfurization (FGD), scrubbers, selective catalytic reduction (SCR), and fabric filters. Further, based on end users, the market is sub-segmented into power generation, cement industry, iron and steel industry, chemical industry, and others (transportation). Among the end users, the cement industry is expected to hold a considerable part of the market, inspired by the increasing adoption of Electrostatic Precipitators (ESPs). These advanced systems' exhaust gases are highly effective in trapping and eliminating particulate substances, making them an important solution to reduce emissions in cement manufacture.
The flue gas desulfurization (FGD) sub-segment is estimated to be a key driver of growth in the global air pollution control systems market. The development is inspired by the adoption of techniques in various industries such as power generation, metal processing, and cement manufacturing that produce a lot of sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, thereby requiring effective control measures. These FGD systems are gaining attraction in the market owing to benefits such as low water consumption, compact design, and low operating costs. Certainly, these systems help industries to follow strict environmental rules by increasing stability efforts. For instance, in September 2024, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved the inclusion of indirect source rules (ISR) of Southern California in the state's air plan. This groundbreaking policy empowers communities to keep the warehouse owners responsible for pollution as a result of truck traffic associated with their operations. ISR requires large warehouses to implement things such as investing in zero-enforcement technologies, setting up onsite charging or fuel infrastructure, and paying mitigation fees to offset emissions from trucks serving trucks to apply measures.
The global air pollution control systems market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, ASEAN countries, Australia & New Zealand and Rest of Asia), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). Among these, Asia-Pacific is estimated to hold a major share of the market across the globe, owing to the increased investments in pollution control technologies for sustainable practices to reduce emissions and promote cleaner air.
The North American region is anticipated to grow at a considerable CAGR over the forecast period. Regional growth is attributed to the increasing number of installations and rising industrial activities in the region. This substantial growth in regional development is mainly owing to stringent environmental rules & regulations along with advanced emission technologies. Regulatory bodies such as the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Environment Canada are implementing strict policies to reduce industrial air pollution, forcing entire businesses to invest in efficient pollution control solutions. Certainly, this region has also seen a rise in the adoption of smart devices integrated with IoT & AI to access real-time data. These technologies help industries monitor emissions in real time, optimize filtration processes, and increase compliance with developing environmental standards. Market players across these regions are actively investing in R&D to introduce the next-generation air pollution control technologies.
The major companies serving the air pollution control systems market include Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises, Inc., CECO Environmental, Freudenberg Sealing Technologies GmbH and Co., General Electric, MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD., and others. These market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market.
