KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Pandemic Hampered The Market Due To Unexpected Disruption In The Sector

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

COVID- 19 pandemic has tremendously affected the complete world. It caused many unexpected disruption and affected the industry. COVID- 19 had negative impact on the market due to economic slowdown, unpredictability in financial sector and high unstable market. The pandemic resulted in decreased demand due to a disrupted supply chain, drop in sales of products, delivery schedules. Travel bans imposed affected business collaboration and partnership. Demand had recently reduced due to travel bans and lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic. The continuous loss in the business due to the lockdown measures is projected to directly influence the growth of the investments in the market.

LATEST TRENDS

Use Of Innovative Products To Boost The Market Growth

Technological improvement and development will further enhance the presentation of the product, allowing it to obtain a varied range of requests in the market. Technological advancement will improve performance and propel the market growth. Technological advancement with high demand are increasingly setting a force to increase the productivity. Some players focus on product improvement to meet consumer requirements and likings. Constant innovation in manufacturing of products is anticipated to stimulate product demand.

• According to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), more than 400 million tonnes of plastic waste are generated annually worldwide, and innovative pyrolysis plants are increasingly adopted to recycle up to 70% of this plastic waste into fuel and raw materials, boosting sustainable applications.

• The World Bank highlights that global municipal solid waste is projected to rise by 73% to 3.40 billion tonnes by 2050, creating a strong trend for pyrolysis adoption as countries seek alternatives to landfilling.

SOLID WASTE PYROLYSIS PLANT MARKET SEGMENTATION

By Type

According to type, the market can be segmented into intermittent, semi-continuous, fully-continuous

Intermittent will capture the maximum market share through forecast period.  

• Intermittent: These plants function in batches. This type of plant is less capital-intensive but has lesser productivity and longer operating cycles.

• Semi-continuous: Semi-continuous plants offer a balance between intermittent and fully-continuous systems.

• Fully-continuous: These are the most innovative and effective type of pyrolysis plants. They operate 24/7 with a constant feed of waste and uninterrupted output of products

By Application

According to application, the market can be segmented into rubber products, plastic products, fuel, others

Solid waste pyrolysis plant market players cover segment as rubber products will dominate the market share during forecast period.

• Rubber products: The increasing need to reprocess waste tires and other rubber products to decrease environmental impact and improve valuable materials.

• Plastic products: Growing plastic waste and prohibitions on landfilling of plastics enhances the demand for reprocessing technologies like pyrolysis.

• Fuel: This covers the direct use of pyrolysis outputs as fuel sources.

DRIVING FACTORS

Strict Environmental Regulations To Boost The Market Growth

Stricter environmental regulations regarding waste management and disposal, comprising mandates to decrease landfill use and amend greenhouse gas releases, motivating the acceptance of pyrolysis technology. These guidelines push for more sustainable methods of waste treatment and energy retrieval.

• According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), strict landfill regulations in the U.S. reduced municipal solid waste landfilling from 55% in 1990 to 24% in 2018, directly driving demand for pyrolysis plants as sustainable waste management options.

• The European Environment Agency (EEA) reports that recycling rates of packaging waste reached 65% in the EU by 2020, creating significant momentum for pyrolysis technology that complements existing recycling streams by handling non-recyclable waste.

Technological Advancement and Innovation To Upsurge The Market

Technological advancements and innovation activate unique revenue augmenting opportunity which will upsurge the solid waste pyrolysis plant market growth. Growing investment in research and development activities and growing awareness about benefits are expected to deliver profitable opportunities for the market. Advancements in pyrolysis technology and the growth of efficient and profitable plant designs are expected to fuel market growth in the future years.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

Technological Challenges To Hamper The Market Growth

Pyrolysis technology requirements to be personalised to handle varied types of waste, which can vary extensively in composition. The variability in feedstock can affect the competence and output of the procedure, requiring continuing technological adaptations and enhancements. Technical difficulties will reduce the industry revenue.

• According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the variability of waste composition can reduce pyrolysis efficiency by up to 25%, making it challenging for plants to maintain consistent outputs.

• The World Bank notes that nearly 40% of global waste is mismanaged, often ending in open dumping or uncontrolled burning, which restricts the feedstock availability for pyrolysis projects and slows adoption.
