Top Eight Thermal/Catalytic Treatment Suppliers Have 18 Percent of the World Market

The market for companies selling thermal oxidizers, regenerative thermal oxidizers, catalytic oxidizers, replacement catalysts and packing in 2012 was $1.8 billion. The leading eight suppliers captured fewer than 18 percent of the market.  This is the conclusion reached by the McIlvaine Company in Thermal Catalytic World Air Pollution Markets published by the McIlvaine Company.  (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

Suppliers include companies oriented around catalysts such as Johnson Matthey and BASF.  They also include companies who make the systems which cause volatile organic compound emissions. This would include Durr, Eisenmann and MEGTEC.  A third category is companies such as Anguil who are focused on the air pollution control industry.

These totals do not include flare system revenues or revenues where both liquids and gases are incinerated.  Thus, many oil and gas applications are not included.

There are twenty additional companies which accounted for 2012 revenues of $150 million. The balance of just under $1.3 billion was generated by two hundred companies averaging less than $1 million in 2012 revenues.
