The Automotive Exhaust Gas Recirculation EGR s Market size is projected to grow from USD 1.1 billion in 2021 to USD 2.2 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 5.8% during the forecast period (2021-2028). The Pneumatic EGR valve segment accounted for over 50% share of the market in 2021 and is expected to continue its dominance through 2028. The Electric EGR valve segment is an emerging trend and is anticipated to gain traction globally because of reduced energy requirements with electric motors as opposed to pneumatic valves which are powered by compressed air or steam.
Automotive exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems are a way to reduce the emissions that come out of an engine. EGRs use air from the vehicle's intake, where it is mixed with fuel and pumped into the cylinders. The mixture is then combusted in these chambers and pushed back through another set of pipes called exhaust headers. The purpose of this system is to lower combustion temperatures so less nitrous oxide and carbon monoxide can be released during this process by diluting them before they reach the catalytic converter or smokestack after being burned as part of gasoline’s chemical reaction inside an internal combustion engine.
On the basis of Types, the market is segmented into Pneumatic EGR valve and Electric EGR valve.
A pneumatic EGR valve is a gas recirculation device that is installed in the exhaust system of an internal combustion engine. It helps to reduce air pollution and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by diverting some of the hot, high-pressure gases from the engine’s exhaust towards its intake or cylinder head for re-use. Pneumatic valves are most common on diesel engines but they can also be found on gasoline engines as well.
A pneumatic EGR valve has three components. first is the body, which is typically made out of aluminum or cast iron. The second is the Valve seat which is usually composed of neoprene rubber with carbon black mixed into it. The third is the Actuator assembly which is the third component, operates by using an external air compressor or vacuum pump.
An electric EGR valve is a more recently developed type of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. It improves engine performance by reducing the amount of combustion heat and residual pressure in an internal combustion engine’s cylinders, which reduces air pollution from unburned fuel.
This technology replaces the conventional pneumatic EGR valves with an electric one that can be controlled electronically or from a computer to vary its operation based on driving conditions. The control strategy changes as well depending on vehicle speed, load conditions, ambient temperature, etc., allowing for better efficiency and emission reduction at all speeds. This improved form of emissions control has been around since 2006 but only became popular during the 2000s when automakers began installing them into vehicles.
On the basis of Application, the market is segmented into light-duty vehicles of EGR, heavy-duty engines of EGR, non-road engines of EGR, and marine engines.
The use of Automotive EGR system in light-duty vehicles of EGR is increasing. The need for better fuel efficiency and lower emissions has led to the adoption of this technology into these types of cars. This increased demand for OEMs will lead to an increase in supply by manufacturers, thereby driving competition among them as well as a price reduction.
Heavy-duty engines of EGR are used in trucking, freight, and other such applications. The exhaust gas is rerouted to the engine intake before it enters the combustion chamber. The cooler air from the outside catalyzes a more efficient burn, reducing emissions while saving fuel consumption by up to 30%.
Many heavy-duty engines of EGR are also used in long-haul trucking. These trucks, which can use more than 200 gallons per mile (378 liters/kilometer) on the highway and still maintain a comfortable speed for passengers, can save up to 15% fuel consumption by using exhaust gas recirculation technology.
EGR systems are used to reduce nitrogen oxides NOx and hydrocarbon emissions from gasoline-fueled nonroad engines, such as those found in construction equipment. The exhaust gas recirculation EGR system is an important emission control device because it reduces the amount of unburned fuel that enters the engine, which in turn decreases NOx formation (i.e., oxidation). Unlike other types of engines where both air intake and exhaust release take place through a single opening near ground level, these types of vehicles have two separate openings for inlet and outlet with their height often exceeding one meter above ground level. This results in significant dispersion losses due to leakage around valves, pipes, and joints into the atmosphere during operation. To overcome this issue, a pneumatic EGR valve is used to increase the pressure in the exhaust pipe which forces back some of the engine's exhaust gas into the intake.
The use of an EGR system for marine engines can help reduce the amount of particulate matter exiting from their stacks. It also reduces NOx emissions as well which are harmful to human health.
In the US, sulfur was added to fuel in 2000 which has contributed to engine efficiency and long-term maintenance of engines. However, this also led to an increase in SOx emissions from marine diesel engines (especially those burning low-sulfur fuels). EGR systems can help reduce these harmful emissions by up to 30%. The use of a gas recirculation system is becoming more popular for ship propulsion because it reduces CO emission rates while increasing power output.
On the basis of Region, the market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa. Among these regions, North America has held a dominant position in the global EGR market. North America is the major market for new car sales and this region is also witnessing significant growth in the heavy-duty engine segment.
Some of the growth factors for EGR systems are increasingly strict environmental regulations and a growing number of diesel cars in Europe. The increase in demand for light-duty vehicles is expected to drive automotive exhaust gas recirculation market share during the forecast period. Emission norms like Euro VI and Tier IV standards will be driving this type of technology in the coming years.
The major factors driving the growth of this market are stringent emission norms which force OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to use more advanced technology such as electric or pneumatic valves on vehicles; increasing demand for diesel engines from ship propulsion industries due to improved fuel efficiency; strong focus towards reducing harmful emissions over time.
