Strategic Insights Into The Air Quality Monitoring System Market: A Comprehensive Review

 Air Quality Monitoring System Industry Overview

The global air quality monitoring system market size was valued at USD 5.13 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2% from 2023 to 2030. Rising levels of pollutants in the atmosphere and stringent government norms and regulations for monitoring pollution are likely to drive product demand. Moreover, in recent years, casualties have risen significantly due to respiratory diseases resulting from environmental pollution. This is expected to propel product demand subsequently.

Air pollution is a major threat to environmental balance. It significantly influences the atmosphere, resulting in acid rain, a rise in toxicity levels, and global warming. Increasing demand for work environment safety is leading to the rising adoption of air quality monitoring systems in manufacturing, automotive, and oil and gas industries. Mishaps such as the Bhopal gas leak disaster and the Aliso Canyon disaster have raised awareness regarding monitoring the presence of pollutants in the atmosphere.

The increasing government initiatives for environmental conservation, such as providing funds for installing air quality monitoring systems and smart city initiatives, are expected to boost market growth over the forecast period. For instance, in November 2022, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) disclosed its allocation of $53.4 million from President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act and American Rescue Plan to support 132 air monitoring initiatives across 37 states. This funding aims to elevate the quality of air quality monitoring in various communities throughout the U.S.

Recent years have seen many tie-ups between government agencies and private organizations. Large companies such as Honeywell International Inc. and Intel Corporation are collaborating with government agencies around the globe to protect the environment. These partnerships aim to develop sensor networks and intelligent systems for monitoring air and water quality. Under the Clean Air Act, the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments founded the Clean Air Partners in partnership with the Maryland Department of Transportation, Baltimore Metropolitan Council, and WGL Holdings, Inc. Clean Air Partners has deployed monitoring systems across the Baltimore-Washington region and provides current and forecasted air quality data for the area.

There has been a significant rise in atmospheric pollution in megacities worldwide, such as Shanghai, Sao Paulo, Onitsha, Zabol, Aba, Riyadh, Delhi, Dhaka, and Kolkata. Vehicles are a major contributor to pollution, emitting toxic elements such as particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and sulfur dioxide. Particulates are highly carcinogenic as they possess the ability to penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream, which could result in permanent DNA mutations and even heart attacks.

As a result, governments have taken initiatives to limit the release of pollutants in the atmosphere. For instance, the Government of India aims to install 300 real-time air quality monitoring systems nationwide by 2024 as a part of the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) initiated in 2017. Additional government initiatives for developing smart cities include digitalizing a city's infrastructure, including transportation systems and wireless sensors, which are also expected to drive product demand.

The market is witnessing trends such as a rise in the availability of low-cost sensor networks, the development of wireless communication, crowdsourcing, and growing public awareness about environment conservation. For instance, in January 2023, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) introduced a groundbreaking technology to revolutionize air quality monitoring. This innovative solution is designed to provide more accurate and real-time data on air quality levels, contributing to better environmental management and public health.

Although air quality monitoring systems are increasingly being adopted, high purchasing costs and costs associated with maintaining these systems are expected to restrain market growth to a certain extent. The price of an air quality monitoring system ranges between USD 100 and USD 250. Furthermore, these systems have a filter that must be replaced regularly. A single air filter costs approximately USD 25, which may only be affordable for some users.
