Market Driver

The Emission Control Catalysts (ECCs) market is anticipated to experience significant growth, particularly in developing countries. APAC is the largest market for light- and medium-weight vehicles, accounting for over 50% of the global automotive market. China, as a leading country in APAC, is a key consumer and sourcing hub for raw materials. Japan, a mature automotive market and leading producer, also contributes to the market. India, now a top-five automotive market, and Thailand are other significant players. Rapidly increasing automotive production in APAC, driven by rising disposable income and low labor costs in countries like Vietnam and Indonesia, will likely boost ECC demand, benefiting manufacturers during the forecast period. 

The Emission Control Catalysts (ECC) market is experiencing significant growth due to increasing emission standards for both mobile and stationary sources. Automobile manufacturers and the mining industry are major consumers of ECCs, particularly catalytic converters for automobiles and SCR systems for power generation plants. The automotive sector, including lighter vehicles and hybrid vehicles, is driving demand for gasoline auto catalysts and diesel engines catalysts. Harmful chemicals like nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide are being effectively controlled through the use of PGMs in ECCs. The industrial sector, including the mining industry, is also addressing industrial emissions and environmental issues by implementing ECCs. Financial incentives such as stimulus packages, purchase bonuses, and tax savings are encouraging the adoption of ECCs. Rapid industrialization and rising oil prices are further boosting the ECC market. The market for ECCs is expected to continue growing as stricter emission standards are implemented and the need to reduce environmental pollution becomes increasingly important.

Market Challenges

• The long-term effects of pollution and the necessity to reduce emissions have led to a heightened focus on electric vehicles (EVs) as an environmentally-friendly solution. Strict emission regulations in regions such as APAC, North America, and Europe, coupled with tax incentives for EV adoption, are driving market growth. Governments worldwide offer incentives for EV manufacturers and buyers, with examples including the US's federal tax rebate of up to USD7,500 and China's tax incentive of up to USD9,280. The increasing EV product portfolio of top Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) is also contributing to market growth, with about 50 best-selling hybrid models and 20 pure EV models currently available, and new launches such as the Nissan Rogue and Kia Niro. However, this shift towards EVs may negatively impact the Emission Control Catalysts (ECCs) market as the adoption of EVs reduces the demand for traditional vehicles and, consequently, the need for ECCs.
• The Emission Control Catalysts market faces challenges in various sectors like turbines for renewable energy and the automotive industry. Three-way catalysts, including gasoline particulate filters and diesel oxidation catalysts, are crucial for reducing harmful emissions. Diesel particulate filters and Lean NOx traps are essential for diesel engines. Primary chemicals like platinum group metals, rare earth oxides, aluminum oxide, TiO2, V2O5, and WO2 are key catalyst components. SCR technology using ammonia or urea is popular for reducing NOx emissions. Metal catalytic converter types, such as those containing Platinum, Rhodium, and other metals, are in high demand. The market includes mobile emission solutions for automotive applications and stationary emission solutions for industrial use. Challenges include trade and economics, as well as regulations for NOx, HC, CO, SOx, and VOCs.
