Industry Insights
When oil or coal is burned to generate energy, over 90% of the sulphur under normal temperature is
converted into sulphur dioxide. Flue gas desulfurization is a process to remove sulphur dioxide from gas
before it emits to atmosphere. This is done in thermal power plants during combustion of fossil fuels
such as coal and oil. On the basis of desulfurization technique, flue gas desulfurization (FGD) can be
segmented into wet sulphuric acid process, wet & spray dry scrubbing, dry sorbent injection system, and
SNOX FGD.
Increasing concerns over air pollution caused by release of sulphur dioxide in atmosphere is expected to
be a major driving factor for FGD market over the next five years. Stringent government regulations over
the emission of harmful gases in the atmosphere are anticipated to drive FGD market over the
foreseeable future.

Growing electricity demand coupled with increasing dependency on coal for power generation is
expected to boost the market demand over the next five years. Growing need of electricity in emerging
nations coupled with rapid industrialization is anticipated to have positive impact on FGD system market
in near future. Technological advancement in the field to get high efficient system is expected to open
new opportunities for the market participants over the next five years. However, high maintenance and
operation cost owing to disposal of waste during FGD process is expected to hamper the market in near
future. In addition, alternative process to treat sulphur dioxide such as fluidized bed combustion,
hydrodesulfurization, and THIOPAQ are expected to restrain the market growth over the next five years.
Technology Insights
Based on technology, FGD systems are categorized into dry and wet systems. In dry systems, reagents
such as limestone and lime are directly injected into flue gas to eliminate sulphur dioxide. While in wet
systems, reagent is mixed with water to eradicate sulphur dioxide from gases. Wet FGD system is the
dominant technology widely used owing to low maintenance and high efficiency.
Application Insights
Application segment for FGD market include reagents & replacements and FGD systems. Growing need
for electricity in emerging nation such as India and China coupled with rapid industrialization is expected
to boost the demand for coal fired power generation, which in turn likely to boost the market for new
FGD systems over the forecast period. Reagents & replacements are primarily used in valves, nozzles,
pump impellers, and filter belts. Increasing demand for reagents in this application is expected to drive
the demand for reagents and replacements in near future.

Regional Insights
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market accounting for over 50% of the total market in 2013. This
trend is expected to continue over the forecast period owing to large number of thermal power plants in
India and China. Furthermore, increasing concerns over air pollution caused by coal combustion is
expected to complement the market growth in this region. North America and Europe together covered
over 40% of the market share in 2013. Replacement of used parts in existing FGD systems is anticipated
to drive the demand for FGD systems in these regions.
