Market Growth Factors
Rapid technological incorporation leading to advanced development
One of the key trends in the market is the expanding Internet of Things (IoT) integration. This, along with other notable trends, including the increasing focus on energy efficiency, improvements in sensing technology, and the development of smart cities, have propelled the use of gas sensors. As a result, the advancement of VOC gas sensors has seen a considerable trend toward incorporating IoT technology. IoT enables real-time control and remote monitoring of air quality by allowing VOC sensors to be interconnected to the internet as well as other digital devices. In addition, the integration of VOC sensors and monitors with tablets, smartphones, and wearable technology nowadays ensures that users are protected from VOC gases, which boosts demand for VOC sensors. This will accelerate the expansion of the market throughout the forecast period.Expanding wastewater and water treatment sector
Increasing industrial activity has made wastewater a serious issue in both developed as well as developing nations. Water and natural resource conservation is a top priority for many governments and non-governmental organizations. Each year, a large number of people around the world contract diseases brought on by consuming contaminated water, such as typhoid, dysentery, cholera, and polio. In order to receive early warnings of equipment issues and water quality problems, monitoring systems are employed in water & wastewater facilities. Due to the implementation of strict regulations, firms must build treatment facilities and monitor the gases they produce, which will spur market expansion.Market Restraining Factors
High volatility of prices and further challenges to the stability
Air pollution monitoring systems, ventilation systems, and automobiles, their high manufacturing costs have delayed sales. They are impeding the market's ability to grow its income. Another factor is the intense competition amongst the increasing number of manufacturers. Many companies are concentrating their R&D efforts on developing IoT-compatible sensors and affordable gas sensor systems employing Micro Electromechanical System (MEMS) technology. In cases where gas sensors are regularly utilized, this puts stress on prices. Because of this, manufacturers are compelled to reduce the potential price of gas sensors and hence reduce output. Therefore, these factors could negatively impact the market's growth throughout the projection period.Technology Outlook
Based on technology, the market is characterized into photo-ionization detector (PID), infrared-based detection, metal-oxide semiconductor, and others. The metal-oxide semiconductor segment garnered the highest revenue share in the market in 2022. By observing changes in the resistivity or conductivity of metal oxide substrates when the gas comes into contact with them, metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors determine the presence of VOC gases. This change is measured by the sensors' electronic circuitry, which then signals the existence of the gas.Type Outlook
On the basis of type, the market is classified into single gas detection sensor and multi gas detection sensor. The multi gas detection sensor segment acquired the largest revenue share in the market in 2022.
