As awareness about the impact of air pollution on health and the environment grows, there is an increased focus on monitoring and controlling air quality. NDIR sensors are used to detect and measure concentrations of gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the Single-Wavelength. In industrial settings, NDIR sensors play a critical role in detecting and monitoring hazardous gases such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3), and carbon monoxide (CO). Early detection of these gases is essential for ensuring the safety of workers and preventing accidents. In February 2023, Honeywell International Introduced the SentAir EC4 NDIR CO2 sensor for commercial buildings, offering exceptional accuracy and stability for demand-controlled ventilation, collaborated with Emerson Electric to develop NDIR sensors for industrial process control.
 

The integration of NDIR sensors with IoT platforms and smart devices enables real-time monitoring and data collection. This connectivity allows for timely responses to changes in gas concentrations and facilitates data analysis for better decision-making. Ongoing research and development activities focus on enhancing the performance of gas sensors. This includes improving sensitivity, selectivity, and response times, as well as exploring new materials and technologies to expand the range of detectable gases.
 

NDIR sensors are most used for the detection of specific gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). However, they may not be as versatile when it comes to detecting a wide range of gases. Furthermore, NDIR sensors can be sensitive to environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. Changes in these conditions can affect the accuracy and reliability of measurements.
 

Non-Dispersive Infrared Market Trends

The non-dispersive infrared industry is witnessing a significant trend marked by the increasing awareness of indoor air quality and its impact on health has fueled a growing demand for NDIR sensors in ventilation and air conditioning systems.

This integration enhances the efficiency of building management systems by providing insights into gas concentrations, optimizing ventilation, and supporting energy-efficient practices. The trend reflects a broader shift towards intelligent and connected infrastructure. For instance, In December 2022, ABB Introduced the GasSecure NDIR gas detector for leak detection in hazardous environments, offering enhanced safety and performance. Joined the Methane Detectors for Safety (MDS) Consortium to advance methane leak detection technologies.
 

The automotive industry continues to adopt NDIR technology for emission control. Stringent regulations on vehicle emissions are driving the integration of NDIR sensors into exhaust systems, ensuring compliance with environmental standards. This trend aligns with the global push towards sustainable transportation and reduced carbon footprints. With growing concerns about climate change, there is an increased emphasis on monitoring and controlling greenhouse gas emissions. NDIR sensors, known for their accuracy in measuring gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), are playing a pivotal role in environmental initiatives and corporate sustainability programs. For instance, In October 2023 Figaro Launched the Figaro TGS8421 NDIR CO2 sensor for consumer electronics, enabling CO2 monitoring in air purifiers and other devices. Further, partnered with Panasonic to integrate Figaro's NDIR sensors into Panasonic's home appliances.
