Executive Summary

A scrubber system is a pollution control device designed to eliminate harmful substances and materials from industrial exhaust fumes, thereby preventing their release into the environment.

There are two primary types of scrubber systems such as wet scrubbers and dry scrubbers. Wet scrubbers employ a combination of wet materials to effectively remove acidic gases and hazardous pollutants from industrial exhaust gases before they are discharged into the environment. They are commonly utilized to eliminate acid gases and harmful pollutants by employing a liquid scrubbing process on exhaust gases generated by furnaces or other industrial devices. Wet scrubbers are available in both wet and dry technology variants and find applications in various sectors, including onshore and offshore industries such as oil and gas, automotive, food and beverage, and chemical industries.

This scrubber system market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

The scrubber system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.72 billion in 2023 to $4.01 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. During the historic period, the growth observed in scrubber systems can be attributed to several key factors. These include the introduction of international maritime regulations aiming to control emissions, the enforcement of stringent air quality standards to reduce pollutants, fluctuations in fuel prices that drove interest in more cost-effective solutions, initiatives for ship retrofitting projects to comply with regulations, the global implementation of sulfur caps on emissions, and incentive programs encouraging the adoption of cleaner technologies in maritime operations. These elements collectively contributed to the observed growth in the adoption and installation of scrubber systems within the maritime industry.

The scrubber system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.41 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. Anticipated growth in the forecast period within the scrubber systems industry is expected to result from various factors. These include the global push towards achieving carbon neutrality goals, the expansion of emission control areas necessitating stricter pollutant control measures, growing demand for environmentally friendly or 'green' shipping solutions, efforts to enhance the efficiency of scrubber systems, and the ongoing transition within the shipping industry towards alternative fuels for reduced emissions. Key trends projected for the forecast period encompass the integration of scrubber systems with smart ship technologies to optimize performance, the increased adoption of exhaust gas cleaning systems to comply with emissions regulations, ongoing technological advancements in scrubber designs for improved efficiency and effectiveness, the utilization of various scrubber system types including open-loop, closed-loop, and hybrid systems catering to different operational needs, and a rising demand for hybrid scrubber systems that offer enhanced flexibility and efficiency.

The anticipated surge in demand for scrubber systems within the marine industry is poised to drive growth in the scrubber systems market. The marine industry, encompassing waterborne commerce and the operation of various vessels, utilizes scrubber systems to mitigate or eliminate harmful substances from ship exhaust emissions. This proactive approach aligns with environmental regulations, minimizing toxic releases into the surroundings. As of October 2022, a study conducted by Chalmers University of Technology highlighted that approximately 16% of cargo ships and one-third of cruise ships globally, amounting to around 4,000 vessels, utilize scrubbers, underscoring the escalating demand driving the growth of the scrubber systems market.

The growth trajectory of the scrubber systems market is expected to be significantly influenced by the increase in international trade through major sea routes. International trade involves the cross-border exchange of goods, services, and capital, fostering global economic interconnectedness. The movement of cargo and vessels through major sea routes has propelled the demand for scrubber systems, driven by ship operators seeking cost-effective solutions to meet emission standards without compromising operational efficiency. Notably, in 2021, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) reported that Asia remained the world's leading maritime freight area, handling approximately 42% of total goods loaded in ports worldwide. This underscores the pivotal role of major sea routes in propelling the growth of the scrubber systems market.

A noteworthy trend shaping the scrubber systems market is the emphasis on product innovation by key industry players. Major companies within the market are directing their efforts towards research and development to introduce innovative products, reinforcing their market positions. For instance, in November 2021, Wartsila Corporation, a Finland-based company specializing in innovative technologies for the marine and energy markets, unveiled the IQ Series exhaust gas treatment system. This small scrubber system, designed for container vessels, introduces a groundbreaking design that is 25% smaller, 30% lighter, and 35% smaller in volume compared to conventional systems. The IQ Series achieves comparable exhaust gas cleaning results within a reduced footprint and offers additional customization options, such as integrating exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) to reduce NOx and a black carbon filter to diminish particulate matter (PM). This strategic focus on product innovation exemplifies the dynamic trends driving advancements in the scrubber systems market.

Key players in the scrubber system market are actively engaged in the development of innovative products, exemplified by the introduction of the multi-stream scrubber system, as part of their strategic initiatives to maintain market leadership. The multi-stream scrubber system represents an advanced pollution control technology capable of simultaneously managing multiple exhaust gas streams. This capability addresses the complexities associated with diverse emission sources, positioning multi-stream scrubber systems as crucial elements in the evolving landscape of pollution control technologies. The heightened adoption and market expansion of these systems are indicative of their effectiveness. In March 2022, Wartsila Corporation, a Finland-based company specializing in innovative technologies for the marine and energy markets, introduced a groundbreaking modular multi-stream scrubber system, the first of its kind in the marine industry. This modular design offers flexibility in installing scrubber units incrementally, meeting technical requirements for new builds, ensuring compliance with current regulations, and serving as a foundational element for future sustainability innovations.

In a strategic move to bolster its position in pollution control, Andritz AG, an Austria-based international technology group, acquired GE Steam Power in July 2021 for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enhances Andritz AG's product portfolio, particularly in pollution control solutions encompassing electrostatic precipitators, dry/semi-dry flue gas treatment, and industrial scrubbing. GE Steam Power, a US-based energy technology company, brings expertise in industrial scrubbing, offering solutions such as condensation scrubbers and low-temperature heat recovery.
