The global Activated Carbon Injection (ACI) Systems market size is predicted to grow from US$ million in 2025 to US$ million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of %from 2025 to 2031.
An Activated Carbon Injection (ACI) System isan engineered system in which Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) is pneumatically injected from a storage silo or bulk bag system (for smaller feed rates) into the flue gas ductwork.
Activated carbon injection (ACI) systems are systems that use activated carbon to remove pollutants from flue gas or other gas streams. Activated carbon is a porous material that has a high surface area and can adsorb various organic and inorganic compounds. ACI systems inject activated carbon into the gas stream, where it captures the pollutants and forms a solid residue that can be collected and disposed of. ACI systems are mainly used to reduce mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants, but they can also remove other contaminants, such as dioxins, furans, hydrogen sulfide, and volatile organic compounds. The industry trend of ACI systems is positive and growing, as more customers and industries require effective and economical solutions for gas emission control. ACI systems can offer several advantages, such as low capital and operating costs, high removal efficiency, easy installation and operation, and compatibility with existing equipment. ACI systems can also be customized to meet the specific requirements of different applications, such as gas flow rate, temperature, pressure, and pollutant concentration. The main drivers of this growth are the increasing demand for ACI systems in various sectors, such as power generation, cement, steel, chemical, and waste incineration.
