Product Definition:
The definition of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) Treatment & Recovery is the process of removing volatile organic compounds from air or water. The importance of VOC Treatment & Recovery is that it helps to protect the environment and public health by reducing emissions of harmful pollutants.
Regenerative Thermal Oxidation:
Regenerative thermal oxidation (RTO) is a process used for the treatment of gaseous pollutants. It utilizes the heat generated from an external source to boil water, which is used for treating pollutants. The treated effluent gas is then released into the atmosphere. RTO has several advantages over conventional thermal processes including high efficiency, low cost and no by-products along with reduced greenhouse gas emissions & toxic waste material.
Recuperative Thermal Oxidation:
Recuperative thermal oxidation (RTO) is a process used for the treatment of gaseous pollutants. It utilizes solar energy to convert harmful pollutants into less noxious components. The process takes place in two basic steps, i.e., collection and purification of the gas stream, followed by heating at a higher temperature to release the purified gas back into air with minimal contamination from impurities present in it.
Application Insights:
The other application segment includes paints and coatings, printing inks, adhesives and sealants, leather goods, textiles and fabrics. The global market for basic chemical raw materials is expected to witness growth owing to the increasing demand for various products such as fertilizers, pesticides along with an increase in population.
Global synthetic material consumption has been growing at a significant rate over the past few years. Rising disposable income coupled with changing lifestyles has resulted in increased spending on consumer durables including electronics which have high VOC content. This trend is projected to continue over the forecast period thereby driving product demand globally from 2018 to 2030.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the presence of a large number of manufacturers and suppliers. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period due to increasing demand for organic compounds from various end-use industries such as food & beverage, plastic & rubber, pharmaceuticals, and others.
The Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rapid industrialization coupled with rising product demand from major end-use industries such as paints & coatings; automotive; construction; electronics; textile etc. In addition, growing environmental awareness among consumers has resulted in increased spending on VOC treatment technologies across this region. This factor is also expected drive regional growth during the forecast period.
Europe accounted for a significant share in terms of revenue generation owing to stringent regulations by governing bodies like European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) regarding production and use of volatile organic compounds (VOC).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing awareness about the health hazards of VOCs and their impact on human health is driving the demand for VOC treatment and recovery systems.
- Stringent environmental regulations to control air pollution are also propelling the growth of this market.
- Growing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, pharmaceuticals, and electronics is contributing to the growth of this market.
- The increasing adoption of green technologies for air purification is providing a major impetus to the growth of this market.
- Technological advancements in VOC treatment and recovery systems are providing new opportunities for players in this market
