Description
In this 52-page edition of Environmental Business Journal, EBJ presents a strategic overview of the U.S. Air Quality & Air Pollution Control industry. Leading air quality practice areas and equipment suppliers are profiled, and results of EBJ’s detailed survey of AQ experts highlight market trends, client demands, pollutant priorities, technology application and executive perspectives on keys issues related to AQ policy, data, science, technology and future markets.
The PDF file of Environmental Business Journal and the accompanying data set in spreadsheet format provides EBJ’s analysis on the $24-billion U.S. Air Quality & Air Pollution Control market, but also key metrics on historical air emissions and air quality index data that reflect the progress made in air quality over the decades, and where potential for the next wave of improvement and enforcement may be. The global history of electric power, coal consumption and CO2 emissions also set the stage for future markets and climate policy.
Feature articles include Q&As with key executives of leading service and equipment providers, and EBJ’s Technology Review section profiles four companies with innovations getting traction in the market.

APC & AQ Overview: U.S. markets in air quality are hobbled by less than enthusiastic federal regulators in the Trump administration, but state and local authorities are in many cases picking up the slack. EBJ presents an AQ market definition, quantification and modest forecast, as well as survey results on key drivers, best client markets, top regions and pollutants for growth with executive opinions on new client demands, regulatory requirements and the role and potential of technology. Historical data on air emissions and air quality also provide perspective on future growth areas 1-14
