The purpose of this report is to cover the definition, description, and forecast of the Europe Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) market. The report involves a deep-dive analysis of the market segmentation, which is based on the types and applications of FGD. The report also gives profound insights into the competitive landscape of the market through a strategic analysis of the key participants in the market. The Europe FGD market, in terms of the type of FGD has been segmented into wet and dry FGD.

The Europe Flue Gas Desulfurization market constitutes 15% of the global FGD market in 2013, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.0% from 2014 to 2019. The large share is attributed to the rising stringent government regulations regarding emissions. These rigid regulations force industry players to install and upgrade FGD systems in their manufacturing plants. This thereby influences the growth of the FGD market.

Energy forms the quintessential requirement of any industry. In order to generate energy, industries burn varied kind of fuels, out of which coal constitutes of a major part in generating energy. The burning of coal results in the production of flue gas. Flue gas consists of nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, and particulate matter among others that results in air pollution. Sulfur oxides when released in air react with rain water, which in turn leads to acid rain. Hence, reducing the sulfur emissions and regulating industrial emissions have become mandatory to reduce environmental degradation. Developed nations of Europe have stringent regulations on the emission of sulfur oxides. Such regulations serve to become the key driving factor of the FGD industry.

The end users of FGD market include power generation, cement manufacturing, chemical, iron and steel, and other industries. The power generation industry and cement manufacturing segments are the maximum users of FGD systems due to the high-grade by-products that are generated during the flue gas treatment process.

The report also provides a detailed competitive landscape of companies operating in this market. Segment and country-specific company shares, news and deals, mergers and acquisitions, contracts and agreements, joint ventures, new technologies developed by the companies, and geographical and business expansions have also been profiled in the report. The key players operating in the Europe FGD market are Alstom SA (France), Babcock & Wilcox Company (U.S.), Clyde Bergemann Power Group International Ltd. (U.S.), Hamon Corporation (U.S.), FLSmidth & Co. A/S (Denmark), and Siemens AG (Germany).

The coal-fired power plant is the major source of sulfur dioxide as it contains high amount of sulfur, and burning it will lead to the emission of sulfur oxides into the atmosphere. These sulfur oxides are harmful for human beings as well as environment. The Flue-Gas Desulfurization (FGD) technology is used in plants, to remove sulfur oxides from flue gases before its emission into the environment, thereby reducing the adverse consequences brought upon by the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere.

Stringent regulations are made in Europe for the treatment of flue gases. Therefore, it has become a mandate for plants to install FGD systems in order to effectively comply with the air pollution control regulations.

This report estimates the FGD market in terms of type, application, and geography. The FGD market in Europe was valued at $2,269.8 million in 2014, and is expected to reach $2,766.5 million by 2019. The market is expected to register a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.0% from 2014 to 2019. Germany held a major share of approximately 30.1% in the Europe FGD market, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period.

The applications of FGD include power generation, chemical, cement manufacture, iron and steel, and others. Power generation was the biggest application segment with 68.0% share for FGD, followed by cement manufacture, and chemical segments with 10.2% and 9.5%, respectively in 2013.

An in-depth market share analysis, by revenue, of the top companies is included in the report. These numbers are arrived at, on the basis of key facts, annual financial information from annual reports, and interviews with industry experts and key opinion leaders, such as CEOs, directors, and marketing executives. Top market players that have established their base in the Europe FGD market are Alstom SA (France), Babcock & Wilcox Company (U.S.), Clyde Bergemann Power Group International Ltd. (U.S.), Hamon Corporation (U.S.), FLSmidth & Co. A/S (Denmark), and Siemens AG (Germany).
