Electrostatic Precipitator Market Trends




  • Increase in Regulation against Air Pollutionis driving the market growth




Due to the implementation of an act by the Environment Protection Agency (EPA) to maintain clean air quality, all industries are mandated to install electrostatic precipitators. Due to rapid industrialization, there is a significant increase in air pollution in urban areas. There is an increasing need to control air pollution due to several health-related issues that are caused due to bad air. The emission of harmful gasses from industries needs to be controlled due to which the demand for electrostatic precipitators will increase. This factor increases the market CAGR in the forecast period.


Additionally, the rapid rate of industrialization in both developed and emerging economies and the growing degree of awareness regarding the need to preserve high air quality is estimated to propel the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) market—the worsening air quality results from increased toxic emissions from industrial industries, power plants, and automobiles. The electrostatic precipitator (ESP) market is driven by this trend as more such solutions and products are used.


Additionally, the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) market is likely to see significant demand due to growing awareness about the detrimental impacts of poor air quality on the respiratory health of humans. The market is also expected to grow Electrostatic Precipitator market revenue due to the rising demand for electrical energy, which forces the major players in the power sector to optimize their energy-producing capabilities.
