This BCC report focuses on the developments and economic trends related to the manufacture of VOC recovery and abatement technology designed for the treatment of industrial process airstreams and remediation off-gas.

VOC recovery and abatement technologies are assessed with respect to type, quantity produced, major players, and projected future market trends. Specific technologies examined include: thermal, electrical and catalytic oxidizers; electrostatic precipitators; biofiltration; fiber filters and baghouses; wet and dry scrubbers; air strippers; mist collectors; gas-phase absorbents; and other novel technologies.

This report is particularly timely, as it evaluates the ramifications of recent amendments to the Federal Clean Air Act on VOC recovery and the abatement technology market. Foreign markets and related export potential are also examined in detail.
