Global Dry Electrostatic Precipitator Market Revenue Grows at a CAGR of 7.3%

Introduction

Straits Research today released its highly anticipated report, “Dry Electrostatic Precipitator Market Size & Outlook, 2026-2034”. According to the study, the market size is valued at USD 2.38 billion in 2025 and is projected to expand to USD 4.47 billion by 2034 registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%.

Market Dynamics

The growth of the dry electrostatic precipitator market is primarily attributed to increasing industrialisation, stricter air pollution control regulations, and the rising need to reduce particulate emissions from power generation and heavy industries. Governments and environmental authorities across regions are enforcing stringent emission standards to address air quality concerns, which compels industries such as power, cement, steel, and chemicals to adopt efficient particulate control technologies. Technological advancements in dry electrostatic precipitator systems, including improvements in collection efficiency, energy optimisation, and system reliability, further support market expansion by enabling industries to achieve compliance while maintaining operational efficiency.

However, the market growth is constrained by high capital investment and maintenance requirements associated with dry electrostatic precipitator installations. Small and medium-scale industrial operators often face financial challenges in adopting these systems, particularly in regions with less stringent regulatory enforcement. Additionally, competition from alternative emission control technologies, such as fabric filters and hybrid systems, can hinder adoption in certain applications. Despite these limitations, the market presents significant opportunities driven by the modernisation of ageing industrial infrastructure, growing demand for energy-efficient emission control solutions, and an increased focus on sustainable industrial operations. These factors are expected to support the long-term growth and adoption of dry electrostatic precipitators globally.

Key Highlights:

• By Product Type: According to Straits Research, the Plate-type ESPs segment dominated the market in 2025, with a revenue share of 48.2%. 
• By End Use Industry: The Cement and construction material industries segment is expected to witness the highest CAGR (8.5%) during the forecast period, fuelled by high dust generation, regulatory pressure, and plant modernisation. 
• Regional Insights: Asia Pacific dominates with over 38.50% share, driven by Rapid industrialisation, urbanisation, and high energy demand in countries such as China and India.
