Dust Suppression Control Market by Chemical (Lignin Sulfonate, Calcium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, Polymeric Emulsions, and Others) and End-Use Industry (Mining, Road Construction, Airports & Military, Oil & Gas, Power & Steel, and Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2030
The global dust suppression control market was valued at $8.5 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $13.4 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2021 to 2030.
Dust suppression agents are chemicals that are developed to contain ground surface particles together, thereby preventing the creation of dust. It is sometimes blended with water for dilution. Dust suppression chemicals are an effective way of controlling air pollution at the source of its creation. For instance, in a coal mine, lot of coal dust is created due to drilling and excavation process. Further, dust is generated during transportation of coal from mine to the next point. If left uncontrolled, it leads to many health and safety hazards for employees and residents. In such areas, dust control agents work as effective binding agents that form a surface film coating when used in higher concentrations.
Dust suppressants are used to reduce fugitive dust particles created in mining and construction environments. Environments could be a coal exploration mine or roads that are used to transport coal. In such areas, the need for site visibility is of utmost priority. In addition, the health of mine workers and people living in the vicinity of the quarry is also important. Coal dust have a lot of health issues upon long exposures. Hence, governments tend to tighten rules around the permissible value of dust particles near coal mines. Therefore, mitigating dust particles at the source of their generation are expected to increase demand for dust suppression control products during the forecast period.
However, lack of product awareness among various end-use industry participants tend to hamper the global dust suppression control market. In Asian countries such as India, the concept of using a dust control agent to mitigate dust is still dim. Spraying water on road surface is still a common dust controlling method. Moreover, there are mechanical dust collectors that do not use any chemicals to remove dust particles. Such alternatives tend to limit growth of the global dust suppression control market.
On the contrary, rise in awareness for effective dust control measures increase prospects of chemical-based dust binding agents. Chemical-based dust suppressants bond to the surface upon evaporation of water. Compared to plain water, this bond lasts longer, thereby saving application time and resources. All such factors are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for growth of the global dust suppression control market during the forecast period.
The global dust suppression control market is segmented on the basis of chemical, end-use industry, and region. On the basis of chemical, the dust suppression control market is segmented into lignin sulfonate, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride, polymeric emulsions, and others.
