Compressed Air Treatment Equipment Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The global compressed air treatment equipment industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 6.20% in the forecast period of 2025-2034 to reach a value of around USD 17.07 Billion by 2034.

Increasing Industrialisation in Asia-Pacific Makes it an Emerging Market

Compressed air is used to power machineries and with the rising industrialisation in Asia-Pacific countries like India and China, which are massively promoting made-in-their own country initiatives, the market for compressed air treatment equipment appears sound and is expected to rise in the forecast period. Developed regions like North America and Europe are already technically advanced countries which have heavy deployment of machineries and consequently, requirement for air compressors and treatment equipment for compressed air is greater there. With rising industries in all major countries for food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, energy exploration and others, use of air compressors is most common and to ensure clean air is utilised in this process, contaminating particles must be removed with the help of filters, dryers, and other such relevant equipment. Cleaning the air will help in efficient and faster process facilitation by machineries and safeguard them against particles that corrode which will surge the demand for them.

Compressed Air Treatment Equipment: Market Segmentation

Compressed air treatment equipment helps in dehumidifying and cleaning the air before it enters the air compressor. The system helps in lowering the dew point of the air and removing particles that may potentially impact the air compressor. Air dryers and air filters are an effective example of equipment used for this purpose.

The market, based on product, comprises of:

• Filters
• Particulate Filter/ Pre-Filter
• Coalescing Filter/ Oil Removal
• Absorber Filter/ Oil Vapor Removal
• Filtered Centrifugal Separator
• High Temperature After-Filter
• Moisture Separator
• Dryers
• Refrigerated Air Dryer
• Desiccant Air Dryer
• Membrane Dryer
• Deliquescent Dryer
• Aftercoolers
• Others

Based on the application, the market is divided into:

• Plant Air/ Shop Air
• Instrument Air
• Process Air
• Breathing Air

The end users of the industry are:

• Chemical
• Paper
• Food and Beverage
• Healthcare
• Automotive
• Industrial
• Others

The regional markets can be classified into:

• North America
• Europe
• Asia-Pacific
• Latin America
• Middle East and Africa

Rising Application Boosting the Demand for Compressed Air Treatment Equipment

Air compressors are used widely to fulfil a variety of purposes across different industries. The high rise in the demand for effective air compressors is one of the reasons for increasing demand for compressed air treatment equipment. Air compressors are used for inflating vehicle’s tires at gas stations, painting vehicles with an airbrush, spraying crops in agriculture and farming, operating laundry presses and steam cleaners, filling equipment for drinks and cooling and freezing products in food and beverage industry, and numerous other reasons in industries ranging from pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, energy exploration, agriculture and farming, dry cleaning to manufacturing. Therefore, this requires deployment of an effective compressed air treatment system to protect the compressor. Such treatment equipment is highly demanded as they ensure efficient and prolonged running of the systems by minimizing rust and corrosion that wet and dirty air can cause. This will also increase efficiency in end-use machinery by reducing CO2 emissions, energy consumption and overall costs. Additionally, treated air enables the compressor to work quieter which further expands the demand for such equipment as noise from the system is undesirable.
