Automotive Exhaust System Market Trends

• 
  

  Growing consumers' awareness of the environment is driving the market growth.

  
  

Market CAGR for automotive exhaust systems is being driven by the growing consumer's awareness of the environment. The emission norms are getting strict across the globe. Therefore, there is a rise in the demand for cutting down the exhaust gas emission particulars and quantities. The combination of after-treatment devices helps automotive OEMs and exhaust system manufacturers to minimize vehicle emissions within required regulatory guidelines. Therefore there is an increase in demand for zero-emission automobiles globally.

The automotive exhaust system is included in the vehicles to amalgamate the exhaust gases from the cylinder, eliminate harmful substances & impurities, minimize the noise level, and purify exhaust gas is discharged. The exhaust system is inclusive of one or two channels depending on the engine, and the flow resistance has opted so that the exhaust backpressure does not damage the engine performance. In an exhaust system, the main components are the exhaust manifold, exhaust pipes, catalytic converter, muffler, and tailpipe. In addition, the automotive exhaust system is mainly installed to minimize the emission of harmful gases into the environment and pump the efficiency of the engine. On an annual basis, global emission standards are becoming stricter there is a need to reduce the exhaust stream emission. The car emissions can be controlled by the utilization of the after-treatment system provided by the automobile's original equipment suppliers and performance exhaust producers. The most popular after-treatment equipment combination is SCR & DPF. This combination can eliminate over 70 percent of all particulate and gaseous pollution. As a result, these mixtures are boosting the market for exhaust systems with the after equipment. The SCR converts NOx to N2 and liquid in the presence of a reduction agent, whereas the DPF separates the particulates

The technology for particulate filters, like emission after-treatment solutions & exhaust stream regeneration mechanisms, has been developed rapidly due to the strict governmental pollution regulations. The gasoline exhaust fumes technologies which minimize NOx emissions to fulfill upcoming vehicle quality rules are being developed by automobile manufacturers. The growing urbanization and disposable income of the individual in developing countries have boosted automobile manufacturing and sales. Manufacturers are continuously developing eco-friendly technologies to provide low-emission vehicles as people are becoming more aware of the detrimental consequences of pollution on the environment and human well-being. Thus, driving the Automotive Exhaust System market revenue.
