Industrial Emission Control Systems Market Definition And Segments
Industrial emission control systems refer to the equipment and technologies designed to reduce or eliminate harmful emissions produced by industrial processes, such as manufacturing, power generation, and chemical production. These systems are used to reduce the release of pollutants such as particulate matter (PM), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other hazardous gases into the atmosphere.
The main types of equipment included in industrial emission control systems are electrostatic precipitators, scrubbers, fabric filters, cyclone separators, thermal oxidizers, catalytic reactors, and others. An electrostatic precipitator refers to an air pollution control device that removes particulate matter from industrial exhaust gases by using electrostatic forces. It includes several types of technologies, such as particulate control systems, gas treatment systems, and VOC (volatile organic compounds) control systems, with several types of emission sources available, including power generation, cement, pulp and paper, chemical industry, mining and metal processing industry, manufacturing, and others.

The industrial emission control systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $19.92 billion in 2023 to $21.42 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to stringent environmental regulations, growing environmental awareness, technological advancements, rising industrialization and urbanization, volatility in energy prices, and corporate sustainability initiatives.
The industrial emission control systems market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $28.94 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to continued tightening of environmental regulations globally, escalating concerns about air pollution and its impact on public health and the environment, advancements in emission control technologies and the emergence of innovative solutions, and increasing adoption of cleaner energy sources. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of multi-pollutant control systems to address diverse emissions simultaneously, growing investment in renewable energy and low-carbon technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, increasing demand for decentralized and modular emission control solutions for flexibility and scalability, expanding applications of digitalization and data analytics, growing emphasis on circular economy principles and resource efficiency in emission control technologies.
Industrialization Propels Growth Of The Industrial Emission Control Systems Market
The increasing industrialization is expected to propel the growth of the industrial emission control systems market going forward. Industrialization refers to the process of transforming an economy from primarily agrarian and rural-based to one dominated by manufacturing, industry, and urbanization. Industrialization is on the rise due to a combination of technological, economic, social, and environmental factors that create opportunities for economic growth and development. Industrialization often leads to increased pollution levels, which can have adverse effects on public health and community well-being. Emission control systems help mitigate these effects by reducing air pollution and protecting local communities from exposure to harmful pollutants. These systems enable industries to comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations imposed by governments worldwide. For instance, in July 2023, according to Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based government statistical agency, industrial output in the European area witnessed a 0.2% increase. Moreover, a 0.1% increase was reported in the European Union during the period between May and April 2023. Therefore, increasing industrialization is driving the growth of the industrial emission control systems market.
