Title: Major Shift in the World Air Pollution Control Market

The U.S., Europe and Japan are no longer dominating the world air pollution control market. The extent of this transfer of power is analyzed in Air Pollution Management published by the McIlvaine Company. Coal-fired power plants will continue to be the largest purchasers of air pollution control equipment. However, most of the purchases will be in Asia and Africa. The U.S. is effectively banning the construction of new coal-fired power plants. Europe is reducing output from coal-firing in favor of gas and renewables. At one time a few companies controlled the power plant air pollution market. In the 1950s, the big market was electrostatic precipitators. Western Precipitation and Research Cottrell shared the U.S. market. Lodge Cottrell and Lurgi controlled the European market. Japanese licensees (Mitsubishi and Hitachi) controlled the Asia market.
