The marine incinerators market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $19.18 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to tighter emission norms, expansion of global shipping fleet, focus on sustainable waste management, adoption of smart ship systems, demand from cruise and passenger vessels. Major trends in the forecast period include stricter compliance with marine waste regulations, adoption of advanced combustion systems, integration of automated waste handling, demand for compact incinerator designs, growth in retrofit installations.
The growth of the cruise ship industry is expected to drive the marine incinerators market in the coming years. The cruise ship sector involves operating large passenger vessels that provide vacation experiences at sea, complete with accommodations, entertainment, and travel to various destinations, often as part of packaged tours. This industry is expanding due to rising demand for unique travel experiences, an increase in cruise destinations, and innovative onboard entertainment options that attract a diverse array of travelers. Marine incinerators play a crucial role in the cruise industry by safely disposing of waste materials, including food, paper, and plastics, through high-temperature incineration to minimize environmental impact and comply with waste management regulations. For instance, in May 2024, the Cruise Lines International Association, a U.S.-based trade organization, reported that the cruise industry experienced a passenger volume of 31.7 million in 2023, up from 29.7 million passengers four years earlier. Thus, the growth of the cruise ship sector will stimulate the development of the marine incinerators market.
Key companies in the marine incinerator market are focusing on technological advancements, such as the development of single-burner incinerators, to improve energy efficiency, reduce emissions, and optimize waste management processes aboard ships, thereby enhancing compliance with environmental regulations and operational cost-effectiveness. A single-burner incinerator is designed to efficiently combust waste using one burner, simplifying incineration, lowering fuel consumption, and reducing emissions in marine and industrial applications. For example, in January 2023, Atlas Incinerators A/S, a Denmark-based manufacturer of marine and offshore incinerators, launched the X10 Titan series. This advanced line features a single, multi-fuel burner capable of handling both fuel oil and sludge oil without the need for preheating. This innovation significantly reduces the need for spare parts, fuel, and energy while eliminating the requirement for steam, electricity, or thermal oil heating systems. The X10 Titan offers ship owners a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution for garbage incineration by streamlining operations and enhancing efficiency.
In May 2024, Daikin Industries, Ltd., a Japan-based company specializing in air conditioning and refrigeration solutions, acquired 4.67% of the outstanding shares of Miura Co., Ltd. This investment aims to strengthen strategic collaboration and leverage synergies within the industrial boiler and energy systems sectors. The partnership is intended to enhance Daikin's market position and expand its technological capabilities. Miura Co. Ltd. specializes in the development and manufacture of industrial boilers and marine incinerators.
