Emission control catalysts proficiently reduce the toxic emissions from vehicles and harmful effects caused by hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide. 

Emission Control Catalyst Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Rising demand of emission control catalysts in automotive sector

Growing manufacturing of automobiles in developing countries on account of increasing domestic consumption of vehicles may increase the use of these emission control catalysts. According to International Trade Administration, the government of china is expecting that the output of automobile will reach 30 million units by 2020 and 35 million by 2025. The upsurge in automotive production increases the demand for emission control catalysts, which is expected to upsurge the growth of the emission control catalysts market.

• Growing demand of palladium based emission control catalyst

Palladium is being extensively used as oxidation catalyst in the gasoline autocatalysts (petrol-based engines) of diesel engines due to its ability to maintain the suitable performance at sustained temperatures for a lifetime. The emission control catalysts comprising equivalent ratios of palladium and platinum are being launched to improve catalytic converters quality and curb the growing emissions. The growing demand for palladium-based emission control catalysts coupled with its relatively low price is expected to increase the demand for the palladium-based emission control catalysts and drive the growth rate of the targeted market during the forecast period.

Furthermore, rising awareness regarding the reducing carbon footprints in the automotive sector, rising demand for SCR in heavy diesel engines, increasing aftermarket for catalytic converters and rising production of automobiles in emerging economies are expected to drive the emission control catalyst market.

Opportunities

• Strict government norms

The introduction of strict government rules would increase the demand of equipment such as automotive telematics, emission control catalysts, and other tools which is used to reduce the vehicle emissions in the environment. Research and development authorities are testing, designing, and learning new methods to improve the catalytic systems to meet up with new emission standards which is getting stringent with each passing day due to escalating global warming are expected to create immense opportunities for the growth of the market in upcoming years. 

The increasing sales of emission control catalyst due to the growing population and increasing disposable income, will further create lucrative opportunities for emission control catalyst market.

Restraints/Challenges

• High cost associated with raw materials

The rise in the cost of raw materials used in the manufacture of emission control catalyst has made it difficult for the manufacturers to maintain the sustainable growth in the market. Also, an increase in the prices of rhodium and platinum metals used in emission control catalysts is also expected to pose a major challenge for the manufacturers and restrain the growth rate of the emission control catalyst market.
