A
particle counter is an instrument that detects & counts physical particles.
It is a useful tool for monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) in clean rooms
& workplaces. It is available in three categories liquid, aerosol, and
solid. It measures the concentration of particles in the air. Its nature is
based upon light obscuration, light scattering, or direct imaging.
Based
on type, particle counters market is segmented into liquid particle counters
and airborne particle counters. Liquid particle counters are further
sub-segmented into offline liquid particle counters and online/inline liquid
particle counter. Airborne particle counters are further sub-segmented into
handheld particle counters, portable particle counter, condensation/ultrafine
particle counters and remote particle counters. Airborne particle counter
segment dominate the market owing to and the growth in stringency of air
pollution monitoring and rise in use of particle counters for cleanroom
monitoring. Based on application, market is segmented into aerosol monitoring &
research, contamination monitoring of liquids, cleanroom monitoring, indoor air
quality monitoring, drinking water contamination monitoring, chemical
contamination monitoring and other applications (atmospheric & climate
research, combustion & engine research, particle formation & growth
studies, operating room monitoring, inhalation toxicology research, air curtain
monitoring, duct leakage testing and HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air
Conditioning) troubleshooting). In addition, based on end-user, market is
segmented into semiconductor industry, life sciences & medical device
industry, aerospace industry, automotive industry, food & beverage industry
and other end-users (cosmetics industry, research centers, military, hospitals,
and universities).
The
particle counters market is driven by growth in focus on the quality of food
products, followed by rise in favorable regulatory scenario, growth in spending
on pharmaceutical research & development (R&D), increase in
semiconductor & automotive industries, growth in pharmaceutical &
biotechnology industries and increase in demand for liquid particle counters in
the field of waste & process water to determine the quality of water, along
with rise in demand for detection of the particle sizes in water treatment plants.
However, technical limitations of particle counters and high cost of particle
counters may impact the counter. Moreover, increase in employment of particle
counters for air pollution monitoring is a key opportunity for market.
Based
on geography, the North-American region holds the prominent share of the
particle counter market owing to rise in presence of the pharmaceutical sector
and growth in technological improvements in the region. Whereas, the
Asian-Pacific and European regions are anticipated to witness highest growth
rate due to increase in demand for liquid particle counters in the oil &
gas industry and presence of well-developed pharmaceutical & healthcare
sector over the forecast period. In upcoming years, it is estimated that the global
market will be reached at rapid pace on account of growth in manufacturing
industries and rise in concerns about environmental monitoring & food
safety during the forecast period.
