Marine Electrostatic Precipitator Market Size

Marine Electrostatic Precipitator Market Size

The global marine electrostatic precipitator market was valued at USD 170.8 million in 2023 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2024 to 2032. It is an air pollution control device used on ships and other marine vessels to remove fine particulate matter, such as soot, ash, and heavy metals, from exhaust gases. It works by charging particles in the exhaust stream with an electrical field and then collecting them on oppositely charged plates or electrodes. This process significantly reduces harmful emissions, including black carbon, improving air quality and helping vessels comply with environmental regulations.

Increasing stringency of global environmental regulations including the IMO 2020 sulfur cap mandates that the sulfur content in marine fuel be reduced to 0.5%, significantly lower than the previous 3.5% limit will propel product adoption. In addition, rising regulations regarding particulate emissions, especially in Emission Control Areas (ECAs), where more stringent air quality standards are applied will augment the product penetration.

Growing global focus on climate change and the environmental impact of shipping will foster product demand to reduce black carbon emissions, especially in sensitive regions such as the Arctic will complement the business scenario. Shifting trend of the shipping companies on sustainability and reducing their environmental footprint will create lucrative opportunities for ESP adoption.
