North America region dominated the global air quality sensor market in 2019 due to the growing demand of air quality sensor products owing to the rising health issues due to air pollution and awareness among the people regarding the impact of air pollution on humans as well as environment consequently leveraging a positive impact on air quality sensor market.

By Pollutant type- Segment Analysis

Air quality sensors is segmented into physical, chemical and biological on the basis of pollutant type.  Chemical pollutant segment held the highest market share of air quality sensor in 2023. Moreover, it is anticipated to witness the significant market growth during the forecast period 2024-2030.The market growth is mainly attributed to the release of air pollutants from growing industries. Moreover emissions from automobiles also adds to the chemical pollutants of air.The, impact of cement plants on the environment was studied in Bihar, India. The assessment revealed that particulate matter concentration in the air was high in comparison to the WHO guideline of air quality. In March 2019, according to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) the transportation sector is responsible for over 55% of nitrogen oxides (NOx) total emissions in the U.S, less than 10% of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions in the U.S, less than 10% of particulate matter PM2.5 and PM10 emissions in the U.S. 

By Location of Sensor type- Segment Analysis 

Outdoor air quality sensor type segment held the highest market share for air quality sensor market in 2022. Moreover, this segment is forecasted to mark the significant growth during the forecast period 2024-2030 owing to its growing applications for monitoring the air quality deteriorated due to emissions from automobiles, power plants, factories and others. This digital outdoor air quality sensor is software-upgradeable and is applicable for high volume. Gases including ozone (O3) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) is detected by this sensor. Moreover its small size accompanied with flexibility makes its adoptable for industrial applications thereby enhancing the market growth of air quality sensor.

Geography - Segment Analysis

North America held the highest market share of the air quality sensor market in 2023. This is due to the rising air pollution and its impact on health of the people. Estimation of new cases for lung cancer in United States for the year 2022 is predicted to be about 228,820 (116,300 in men and 112,520 in women) according to American Cancer Society’s. Moreover the statistics for death due to lung cancer include about 135,720 (72,500 in men and 63,220 in women). Furthermore, APAC region is anticipated to observe the significant market growth during the forecast period 2024-2030. Rapid industrialization and rising automobiles in developing countries adds pollution to the air at a faster rate. Rules and regulations are thereby framed by governments to curtail the air pollution which in turn enhance the demand for air quality sensor and thus the market flourish. Seoul became APAC’s new centre for world health organization (WHO) to nurture healthier and safer environments and provide support to countries for protection of people’s health in a better way. In March 2023, a collaboration was made between CERC and Chinese air quality experts. This collaboration was made for monitoring Guangdong’s air pollution. Investments in this collaboration was made by Innovate UK and the Guangdong Science and Technology Department. Such collaborations and investments contributes to the enhancement of the market growth.
