Flue Gas Desulfurization System Market Set to Reach USD 36,593.3 million by 2033, Driven by Environmental Regulations and Power Demand

Flue Gas Desulfurization System

The flue gas desulfurization system industry share is forecasted to thrive at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2023 to 2033. The global market size is slated to surpass a valuation of USD 22,252.3 million in 2023 and is anticipated to clock a valuation of USD 36,593.3 million by 2033.

Flue gases from power stations, industrial facilities, and other sources that burn fossil fuels are processed using a method called flue gas desulfurization (FGD) to reduce sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions. To combat air pollution and minimize hazardous emissions, governments throughout the world are enacting strict environmental laws. Sulfur dioxide is a significant atmospheric pollutant that causes acid rain and has detrimental effects on human health. Industries have been implementing FGD systems to considerably reduce SO2 emissions in order to fulfill emission limits and comply with environmental laws. Implementation of further governmental regulations is expected to proliferate market growth during the forecast period.

In addition to removing SO2, FGD systems are also able to lower dangerous pollutants like particulate matter (PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and mercury (Hg). The potential of FGD systems as a component of a multi-pollutant management approach has been recognized by governments and businesses, making them a preferred method of minimizing environmental effects as a whole. The increasing adoption by end-user industries is predicted to bolster market growth.

The global quest for cleaner, more sustainable energy sources has resulted in the incorporation of renewable energy and the eventual retirement of older, more polluting power plants. By lowering emissions from existing fossil fuel-based power plants, FGD systems serve a crucial role in bridging the transition phase as greener energy sources gain popularity.

Recent Development Observed by FMI:

  • GE announced its plans to reduce emissions at Anuppur Thermal Power Plant by 51000 tons of SO2 in January 2022. Apollo International Limited will supply MB Power (Madhya Pradesh) Ltd. with electricity as part of the partnership. The power source, General Electric (GE), also provided critical components and designed the entire Wet Flue Gas Desulfurization (WFGD) system for the 2X600 MW Anuppur Thermal Power Plant in Madhya Pradesh. GE plans to eliminate 51,000 tons of SO2 annually and clean 7.4 million cubic meters of flue gas per hour as part of India’s effort to lessen the environmental impact of thermal power facilities. The project is going to allow the end-user to comply by 2024 with SO2 emission standards for thermal power plants.
