The Global Heavy Duty Diesel (HDD) Catalysts Market is Projected to Reach US$2.5 Billion by 2024
Stringent
Emissions Norms Drives the Global Heavy Duty Diesel (HDD) Catalysts Market,
According to a New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA launches comprehensive analysis of industry
segments, trends, growth drivers, market share, size and demand forecasts on
the global Heavy Duty Diesel (HDD) Catalysts market. The global Heavy Duty Diesel (HDD) Catalysts market is projected to reach
US$2.5 billion by 2024, driven by stringent
vehicular emission norms, and increasing commercial vehicular production.
Diesel engines are known for their high efficiency,
reliability, durability, and low-cost operation, which make them most preferred
engine type in automotive vehicles including passenger cars, trucks, buses and
non-road equipment such as construction machines. Offering unmatched levels of
efficiency in land transport operations, trucks equipped with heavy duty diesel
engines have become a mainstay in the domestic economy of many nations,
connecting production, import, export and wholesale and retail markets in the
nation or a region. Similarly, heavy duty buses are performing the important
role of carrying general, business, commercial, and leisure commuters to and
fro from origin points to their respective destinations, in urban, sub-urban
and rural locations.
However, diesel engines, whose efficiency in
delivering performance and costs benefits remains unperturbed in on-road and
off-road applications, associate themselves with certain major drawbacks
relating to environmental pollution. Diesel engine emissions typically contain
pollutants such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), particulate matter
(PM) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). Being a widely used
automotive engine type, in on-road as well as non-road applications, diesel
engines are acknowledged as one of the primary contributors to environmental
pollution globally.
Considering the negative impact of diesel exhaust
emissions on environment and human health, governments across the world have
formulated stringent regulations to reduce and contain the Green House Gas (GHG) emissions releasing from
diesel engines. Such regulations on use of heavy duty diesel engines are
prominent in regions such as the United States and Europe, which have launched
successive regulatory legislations to monitor and supervise the diesel engine
performance over the past few decades. The regulatory norms formulated by the US and
European agencies are being followed, either in their original form or in a
localized format, by several other countries including India, China, Brazil,
and Japan among others.
The stringent regulatory scenario has created a
fertile ground for the proliferation of innovative heavy duty diesel (HDD)
catalysts, the catalytic systems specifically designed to convert toxic
substances present in diesel engine exhaust into non-toxic and less harmful substances
through chemical reaction. With regulatory legislations becoming harsher with
every successive amendment, the importance of HDD catalysts is gaining
precedence day-by-day. Against this backdrop, HDD catalysts such as Diesel
oxidation catalyst (DOC), diesel particulate filter (DPF), selective catalytic
reduction (SCR), Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR), Lean NOx Catalysts (LNC), and
Lean NOx Traps (LNT) are increasingly being equipped in the OEM/factory-built
vehicles and machinery and are also being widely marketed in the aftermarket.
As stated by the new market research report on Heavy Duty Diesel (HDD) Catalysts, the
United States represents the largest market worldwide, closely followed by
Europe. Asia-Pacific region, comprising of fast growing markets such as China
and India, is forecast to witness the fastest growth among all regions, with a
CAGR of 12.3% over the analysis period. Adoption of advanced vehicular emission
norms and high growth of medium and heavy commercial vehicles in these
countries is expected to drive the prospects of Heavy Duty Diesel (HDD)
Catalysts.
Leading players in the market include BASF SE,
Clariant, Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (CDTi), Johnson Matthey plc, N.E.
Chemcat Corporation, and Umicore N.V. among others.
