These restrictions have resulted in weakening activity and temporary closures of manufacturing facilities.


Gas Detection Equipment Market Dynamics


Gas detection equipment can monitor and measure a single or a mixture of gas concentrations. Gas detection equipment can be wireless (portable) or fixed. Wearable or portable gas detection equipment is usually worn on the person and triggers an alarm once it detects the gas concentration above the limit threshold. Various sensors such as ultrasonic, infrared, and electrochemical gas are integrated into it. They find applications in household activities, automobiles, refineries, and industrial facilities, among others. With the increasing emphasis on ensuring the safety of workers in various end-use industries around the world, the adoption of various protective systems such as gas detectors has been promoted. Various industry standards were put in place, along with government rules and regulations to ensure the safety and health of workers in the manufacturing industry, necessitating the requirement for gas detectors. However, the growth of the market can be hindered due to the high cost of gas detection equipment.


Drivers:




  • The implementation of stringent safety regulatins




Government agencies worldwide make efforts to mitigate oil and methane gas emissions, in turn stimulating the growth of gas detection equipment. To monitor efficiency and safety in a range of applications, infrared gas detection sensors are widely used to detect methane leakage. It is of utmost importance to keep occupational exposure of personnel to toxic gases to acceptable levels based on industry guidelines. This forces industries to install gas detection equipment. Another important factor is the growing awareness among owners and industry workers that professional gas detection equipment plays a vital role in reducing the damage caused by methane leaks during transport, extraction of natural gas, and power generation. Further, mitigating methane emissions is considered one of the cost-effective methods for cutting global emissions. For instance, in January 2020, the Canadian government committed to reducing oil & gas methane emissions by 40%–45% below 2012 levels by 2025, thereby directly propelling the gas detection equipment market demand during the review period.


Restraint:




  • The high cost of gas detection equipment




Gas detectors measure or monitor levels of toxic gases, oxygen, and combustible gases in an area as part of a safety system. These detectors normally sound an alarm and are used in confined spaces or areas where exposure to such a gas could result in a toxic exposure or fire hazard. Gas detectors are available as portable and fixed units. Gas detectors are made up of various types of gas sensors such as thermal conductivity gas sensors, MEMS pellistors, catalytic pellistors, infrared gas sensors, metal oxide gas sensors, indoor air quality sensors, and electrochemical gas sensors, the use of the mentioned sensors depend upon the application areas of gas detectors. To achieve high reproducibility and repeatability, the fabrication process to develop gas sensors becomes costly. For instance, installing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into the conducting layer of the sensor is a highly intensive labor job. Thus, increasing the cost of gas detection equipment due to their advantages such as high reproducibility, low response time, high sensitivity, and long-term stability.
