The global wet flue gas desulfurization system industry is expected to surpass USD 32 billion by 2032. The growing population and rapid industrialization in emerging nations have led to an increased demand for manufacturing operations, thereby promoting the use of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems, and thus driving the industry growth. As per the U.S. Department of Defense, manufacturing contributes to 35% of American productivity growth, 60% of all exports, and 70% of total R&D investments in the country. This significant contribution of the manufacturing sector is expected to further propel the market growth.
Based on application, the power plant application industry will grow at a CAGR of over 5.5% through 2032. Stringent environmental regulations aimed at reducing sulfur dioxide (SO?) emissions and the rising demand for cleaner energy solutions is driving the application industry grwoth. Wet FGD systems are preferred due to their high efficiency in removing SO? from flue gases. Additionally, advancements in technology and increasing investments in sustainable power generation are further propelling the market growth.
Asia Pacific wet flue gas desulfurization system market is projected to surpass USD 22 billion by 2032. Prominent development and investment in new thermal power plants, along with a favorable outlook toward energy-intensive industries in rapidly growing nations such as India and China, are driving regional market growth. The rising trend of upgrading and retrofitting power plants to improve their efficiency by removing SO? from emissions before release into the atmosphere is further boosting industry growth.
The U.S. wet flue gas desulfurization market is expanding due to stringent EPA regulations on sulfur dioxide emissions and a shift towards cleaner energy solutions. Significant investments in retrofitting older power plants to meet these standards are driving market growth, ensuring compliance and improving plant efficiency.
