industrialization and urbanization are also driving the market CAGR for emission control catalyst (ECC). As more people move to cities, the demand for industrial products and services rises, resulting in the expansion of the industrial sector. As the industrial sector expands, hazardous gases such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrocarbons (HC) are released into the atmosphere. ECCs is frequently employed in the industrial sector to reduce dangerous gas emissions. The growing demand for industrial products and services as a result of urbanization and industrialization is propelling the ECC market forward. Because of the growing demand to reduce harmful emissions from industrial operations, the industrial sector is projected to continue leading the ECC market. The growing requirement to reduce harmful emissions from industrial operations is projected to propel the ECC market forward in the approaching years.
Several governments throughout the world have implemented rigorous standard pollution and fuel economy rules for fuelled passenger vehicles. These standard rules have prompted automobile manufacturers to raise the usage of emission control catalysts in order to minimize carbon footprints in vehicles, regulate air pollution, and maintain safety and performance, which is likely to enhance the emission control catalyst market. The emission regulations for light-duty vehicles, such as Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ) and Greenhouse Gas Emission guidelines, establish fuel consumption criteria for the vehicles. Government rules have ensured that automobile manufacturers will need to produce vehicles that comply with these standards and reduce hazardous pollutants in the environment in the future. As a result, the market for emission control catalysts will be driven during the forecast period as a result of the large rise in demand for these catalysts in the next years.
To limit harmful emissions into the environment, emission control catalysts are widely utilized in automobile applications. In 2018, OICA reports that the increase in automotive production in India, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia to 5174645, 2167694, 1343714, and 564800, or 8.0%, 9.0%, 10.3%, and 12.2% higher than the previous year, is attributable to rising per capita income of the population, which also contributed to the enormous demand for advanced automotive machine manufacturing in the APAC region. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), the Chinese government expects automotive output to reach 30 million units by 2020 and 35 million by 2025. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), 1.2 million new passenger cars, SUVs, and commercial vehicles were sold in the Australian market in 2017, representing a 0.9% increase over 2016. With increased automobile production, demand for emission control catalysts will rise, acting as a driver for the emission control catalyst market over the forecast period.

The Emission Control Catalyst Market segmentation, based on type includes Palladium, Platinum, Rhodium and Others. In comparison to other PGMs, palladium segment dominates the ECC market. Palladium-based catalytic converters are ideal for meeting rigorous emission control rules. However, platinum, rhodium, and other PGMs are also employed in the production of ECC for automotive and industrial applications. Metals such as vanadium and tungsten (among others) are utilized in industrial processing to maintain emission limits. For example, a three-way catalyst (TWC) contains palladium or platinum to catalyze oxidation reactions, while rhodium is utilized as a reduction catalyst for NOx reduction.
