The electrostatic precipitator (EPR) is a device that uses electrostatic force to separate dust particles from the exhaust gas stream in different industries including chemical, paper and power. The electrostatic precipitator (EPR) is preserving and protecting human life from polluted air-induced diseases. The primary electrostatic precipitators are the plate-wire precipitator, the plate-precipitator wet precipitator and the tubular precipitator.
The overall electrostatic precipitator (EPR) market size is expected to grow from US$ 8 billion in 2018 to around US$ 16 billion by 2025.
The global market for electrostatic precipitators is increasing significantly due to the urbanisation, which made a major contribution to air pollution in urban areas and thus tends to drive market share of the EPR. The strict international standards to reduce air pollution coupled with rapid industrialisation in emerging markets are key drivers for the growth of the industry.
The growing public awareness regarding environmental and health concerns raise the demand for better air quality and air pollution control systems. Similarly, the expansion of coal-fired power plants, steel mills and the development of the cement industry also offer some of the largest opportunities for the electrostatic precipitator market.
On the other side, the high cost of installing electrostatic precipitators will impede the growth of the market. Moreover, the emergence of various alternative and renewable sources of energy in power generation can also impede the growth of the market.
