Dry Marine Scrubber Systems Market Size - By Fuel (MDO, MGO, Hybrid), By Application (Commercial, Offshore, Recreational, Navy), & Global Forecast, 2024 – 2032

Dry Marine Scrubber Systems Market Size

The global dry marine scrubber systems market size was valued at USD 1 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 9.8% from 2024 to 2032. Marine scrubber is an exhaust gas cleaning system used onboard ships and vessels to reduce emissions of sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM) from marine engines. Further, these scrubbers utilize dry sorbent materials or filtration techniques to capture and neutralize pollutants in the exhaust gas stream.
 

Stringent emission regulations imposed by the international and regional maritime organizations, including the International Maritime Organization (IMO) coupled with growing requirement to reduce the impact of shipping emissions will augment the industry landscape. Furthermore, these scrubbers provide flexibility in fuel choices and operational practices, allowing vessels to adapt to the changing fuel prices, availability, and regulatory requirements without any significant modifications to the existing infrastructure.
 

Dry Marine Scrubber Systems Market Trends

Growing investment from shipowners into scrubber systems to meet sulfur cap regulation will propel the market statistics. Their discharge limitations as well as the capability to operate in diverse regulatory climates, will gain popularity for hybrid scrubber systems enhancing the business outlook. Technological advancements along with increasing focus on enhancing the scrubber efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness will stimulate the product penetration. Further, ongoing development of innovative solutions by manufacturers including digital integration and advanced materials to optimize the scrubber performance and minimize operational costs will stimulate the industry landscape.
 

Dry Marine Scrubber Systems Market Analysis

Based on fuel, the marine diesel oil (MDO) segment holds a market share of around 65% in 2023. Key factors including compatibility with both open-loop and hybrid scrubber systems will enhance the product penetration. Moreover, as a medium-distillate fuel, MDO possesses a lower amount of sulfur as compared to Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO), satisfying rigorous emission limits. Moreover, the fuel is widely accessible and can be utilized in both old and newly constructed boats, thus rendering it the most suitable option for retrofitting scrubber systems onto vessels.
 

The of dry marine scrubber systems market from the recreational segment is set to grow at a CAGR of over 10% through 2032. Shifting focus to reduce the environmental footprint across the recreational vessels including yachts, cruise ships, and pleasure craft among others will influence the business trends. Stringent regulations & mandates coupled with growing environmental awareness to reduce emissions in leisure boats will augment the demand for retrofitting scrubber systems, thereby complementing the market growth.
 

Asia-Pacific dry marine scrubber systems market is predicted to hit USD 1.2 billion by 2032. Robust growth driven by stringent emissions regulations, particularly in key maritime nations comprising of China, Japan, and South Korea will augment the business landscape. Increased air pollution and the protection of environmental sustainability, combined with the rapid urbanization, industrialization and globalization will result in significantly increased deployment. Investments in upgrades, technological innovation and increasing emphasis on green shipping solutions will stimulate the product demand.

Dry Marine Scrubber Systems Industry News:

• In March 2023 Sodaflexx, an equipment specialist operating out of the UK, finalised the installation of a dry scrubber system onto a Bontrup bulk carrier. The dry scrubber system injects sodium bicarbonate into exhaust gas, effectively transforming harmful SOx compounds into harmless sodium sulphate salt. This will help solidify the company’s product presence on a global scale.
   
• In October 2022, Sodaflexx developed dry marine scrubber technology, utilizing sodium bicarbonate to reduce or eliminate pollutants from the ships exhausts. No special or advanced construction standards are applied to the material. This will support the company to broaden its product offering across the scrubber industry.
