Market Overview:
The global flue gas desulfurization unit market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for power and metallurgy plants across the globe. In addition, stringent environmental regulations regarding sulfur dioxide emissions are also contributing to the growth of this market. The global flue gas desulfurization unit market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, it is divided into dry flue gas desulfurization unit (DFGDU), semi-dry flue gas desulfurization unit (SDFGDU), and wet flue gas desulfurization unit (WFGDU). DFGDUs are further classified into baghouses and scrubbers while SDFGDUs are classified into absorbers and adsorbers. WFGDUs include limestone wet scrubbing systems, seawater scrubbing systems, direct contact water cooling systems etc., Among these segments, WFGDUs held a major share in 2017 owing to their high efficiency in removing sulfur dioxide from exhaust gases emitted by industries such as power plants and metallurgy plants. On the basis of application, it is segmented into power plant industry ,metallurgy plant industry ,and others .
Product Definition:
A flue gas desulfurization unit, also known as a FGD unit, is a piece of pollution control equipment used to remove sulfur dioxide from the exhaust gases of power stations that burn coal or oil. The importance of flue gas desulfurization units is that they help reduce atmospheric pollution caused by these types of power plants.
Dry Flue Gas Desulfurization Unit:
Dry flue gas desulfurization unit is used to remove sulfur from flue gas before it is released into the atmosphere. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and other compounds are emitted during coal combustion, the dry flue gas desulfurization removes sulfur dioxide before it is released into the atmosphere. The process of removing sulfur dioxide uses a variety of techniques including membrane contactors, coke ovens, electrostatic precipitators and wet scrubbers among others.
Semi-Dry Flue Gas Desulfurization Unit:
Semi-Dry Flue Gas Desulfurization Unit (SDFGDU) is a device used to remove sulfur from flue gas before it is released to the atmosphere. SDFG units are primarily employed in coal-fired power plants for the removal of both hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide. The byproduct produced by these devices includes water, carbon monoxide, and other gaseous compounds.
Application Insights:
The power plant application segment led the global flue gas desulfurization unit market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growing demand for electricity generation from fossil fuels, such as coal and natural gas, is expected to drive the product demand for power plants application over the forecast period.
The others segment includes chemical manufacturing industries, cement production facilities and iron & steel industry. Growing industrialization along with increasing environmental regulations regarding sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions are anticipated to increase product penetration in desulfurizing units for these applications over the coming years.
Flue gas desulfurization process eliminates SO2 emission by utilizing GFD technology which consists of three stages; heat exchange stage, separation stage.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market over the forecast period. The region has been witnessing increasing coal consumption and power plant installations owing to economic development, which in turn is anticipated to drive FGRU market growth. China accounted for a major share of global coal production and it also emerged as the largest consumer of FGD systems globally. In addition, India’s power sector has witnessed an upsurge in demand for FGD systems due to stringent government regulations regarding sulfur dioxide emissions from thermal plants.
North America was estimated as one of the prominent regional markets in 2017 owing to high demand from U.S., where there are several old operating units with aging infrastructure that require replacement or upgrading work on FGD system components such as scrubbers or flue gas desulfurization devices (FGDs).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for electricity due to population growth and industrialization in developing countries
- Stringent environmental regulations for emissions of sulfur dioxide from power plants
- Availability of government subsidies and incentives for installation of flue gas desulfurization units
- Rising prices of natural gas, a key fuel used in power generation, which increases the cost competitiveness of coal-fired power plants equipped with flue gas desulfurization units
- Growing demand for clean energy sources such as wind and solar, which has led to the retirement or retrofitting of many older coal-fired power plants
