North America Flue Gas Desulfurization Market By Type (Wet FGD & Dry FGD), By Application (Power Generation, Chemical, Cement Manufacture, Iron and Steel & Others), By Countries - Regional Trend & Forecast to 2019

The North American Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) market was valued at $2,312.0 million in 2013 and is forecast to reach $3,018.0 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2014 to 2019.

The report analyzes the FGD market on the basis of type, application, and geography. The market has been segmented on the basis of type into wet FGD and dry FGD. The applications covered in this report are power generation, chemical, cement manufacturing, and iron & steel, among others. The market is further segmented based on the major countries in the region, such as the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
North America is one of the major regions for flue gas desulfurization market owing to the stringent government regulations for the treatment of flue gases, which mostly contains harmful pollutants, before releasing them to the environment.

The growing energy demand has led to increased power generation in North America. Most of the power plants are coal fired power plants in which high sulphur content coals are used. The burning of such coals results in emission of flue gases, which contain air pollutants such as sulphur oxides, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxides. Thus, power generation is the most dominating application segment in the North American FGD market. 

The chemical industry also contributes to a high amount of sulphur emission as the processing of chemicals emits large amounts of sulphur into the environment. Acid rain and smog are some of the consequences of sulphur dioxide emission. This sulphur dioxide is also dangerous for human health, and controlling such emissions has become mandatory in order to avoid environmental degradation.

The report also provides an extensive competitive landscaping of the North American market, along with strategic profiles of the key companies operating in the North American flue gas desulfurization market. Some of the key players operating in the market are Babcock & Wilcox Company, Alstom SA, Advatech LLC, Marsulex Environmental Technologies, Burns & Mcdonnell Inc., and FLSmidth, among others.
