Market Growth Factors
The worldwide incinerator market is driven by increasing amounts of waste from urbanization and industrialization, as well as the healthcare industry, which generates biohazardous medical wastes that require treatment. Energy recovery given off by modern incinerators, in other words, conversion of heat energy from the waste incineration process into electricity or heat for industrial and household use, is more cost-effective. Population growth provides opportunities in developing nations.
Increasing stringency in waste disposal and emission laws and regulations by governments across the world, related to hazardous waste, GHG emissions, and plastic waste in landfills, is one of the important factors driving growth of the global incinerators market. Increasing closure of open dumps and shift towards compliance with emission standards is increasing demand for high temperature incinerators. Low emission and high efficiency incinerators are further driving the growth.
The need for waste-to-energy (WtE) systems which work as both a waste disposal and energy generation mechanism has prompted investment in incineration as an alternative to landfill. Incinerators accept a variety of wastes, including municipal, industrial and hazardous wastes, making them suitable systems for WtE conversion. WtE is also aligned with environmental policies targeted at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and is growing.
