The report on activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas captures the global market size by volume and value. The global activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas is growing at a rapid pace in North America and Asia-Pacific. The demand of activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas is driven by the following factors:
  • Strict norms and regulations imposed by EPA and other regulatory bodies has increased the demand of activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas .The coal burning has a major share in the North American activated carbon for mercury control industry .
  • Rapid increase in number of power plants has increased the demand of activated carbon for mercury control in Asia-Pacific. Countries including India are developing more power plants of several materials, such as, coal, plastics and paper in order to increase their production capacity. These power plants, in turn, release harmful gases and chemicals which can be captured by equipment such as scrubbers, FGD, ESP and activated carbon.
About the market:

The global market of activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas has grown significantly during the last few years and is expected to grow at a rapid pace in the next five years, and is driven mainly by the government norms in North America.

Aramid fibers are long-chain synthetic polyamides. Aramid fibers have extremely high tensile strength, which is why they are commonly used in armor and ballistic protection applications. They are frequently used in advanced composite products that require high-strength and light-weight properties. Aramid fibers are available in several forms, such as roving, continuous filament yarns, spun yarns, pulp, and woven fabrics. These fibers are employed as reinforcement for tires and plastics, cables, ropes, and as a substitute for asbestos. They are also used in the production of bulletproof vests and fireproof clothing. The end-user industries for aramid fiber include homeland security, defense, infrastructure, and automobiles, among others. Safety & protection applications such as fireproof clothing and bulletproof vests, among others, dominate the global demand for aramid fibers and this trend is anticipated to continue during the forecast period. Moreover, high strength and friction resistance of aramid fibers have led to the surge in demand for aramid for infrastructure applications, such as bridges and cabling ropes. Optical fiber is projected to be the fastest-growing application for aramid fibers.
