세계의 혐기성 소화(AD) 시장 예측 : 원료 유형별, 용량별, 제공별, 소화 시스템별, 용도별, 지역별 분석(-2030년)

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Anaerobic Digestion Market is accounted for $11.33 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $23.34 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 12.8% during the forecast period. Anaerobic digestion is a biological process where microorganisms break down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, producing biogas as a byproduct. This process occurs naturally in marshes, landfills, and the digestive systems of animals. In controlled environments, such as anaerobic digesters, it's harnessed to efficiently convert organic waste into valuable resources like biogas, which is primarily methane and carbon dioxide. The process also yields nutrient-rich digestate, which can be used as fertilizer.

According to the World Bank's What A Waste 2.0 report, the world generates 2.01 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste yearly. Among that, nearly 33% of the waste is not managed in an environmentally safe manner. The report also estimates that global waste is projected to grow to 3.4 billion tonnes by 2050.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Feedstock availability

Feedstock availability is a crucial driver in the anaerobic digestion market, influencing its growth and sustainability. This driver focuses on the accessibility and abundance of organic materials suitable for anaerobic digestion processes, such as agricultural residues, food waste, and wastewater sludge. Regions with ample sources of these feedstocks tend to have more robust anaerobic digestion industries. Factors like agricultural practices, urbanization rates, and waste management policies impact feedstock availability. Increased awareness about environmental benefits and governmental support for renewable energy further drives efforts to secure diverse and consistent feedstock supplies for anaerobic digestion facilities.

Restraint:

Economic viability

The economic viability restriction is due to the challenges faced in making anaerobic digestion projects financially feasible. These constraints often stem from the high initial capital costs required for infrastructure setup, such as digesters and biogas purification systems. Additionally, fluctuations in feedstock availability and quality, as well as regulatory uncertainties, can affect profitability. Limited access to financing and insufficient revenue streams from biogas and digestate sales further compound the viability issue. Addressing these constraints securing long-term feedstock contracts, and implementing supportive policies and incentives to enhance revenue streams.

Opportunity:

Waste management solutions

The anaerobic digestion market presents a significant opportunity for waste management solutions due to its dual benefits of waste management and renewable energy generation. Anaerobic digestion utilizes organic waste to produce biogas, a renewable energy source, while also reducing greenhouse gas emissions. As environmental concerns grow and regulations tighten, the demand for sustainable waste management solutions like anaerobic digestion is on the rise. Additionally, government incentives and subsidies further bolster the attractiveness of this market. Waste Management Solutions can capitalize on this opportunity by investing in technological advancements, expanding infrastructure, and fostering partnerships to meet the increasing demand for eco-friendly waste management solutions.

Threat:

Competition from alternative technologies

Competition from alternative technologies poses a significant threat to the anaerobic digestion market. As sustainable energy solutions evolve, options like pyrolysis, gasification, and microbial fuel cells emerge as formidable contenders. These alternatives offer diverse benefits, such as higher energy efficiency, greater scalability, and broader feedstock compatibility. Moreover, they often require less initial investment and offer faster returns on investment compared to anaerobic digestion. Consequently, unless anaerobic digestion technology continues to innovate and address its limitations, such as long processing times and dependency on specific feedstocks, it risks losing market share to these alternative solutions.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the anaerobic digestion (AD) market in several ways. Lockdowns and restrictions disrupted waste supply chains, affecting feedstock availability for AD plants. Economic downturns also hindered investments in new AD projects, stalling market growth. Moreover, reduced energy demand during the pandemic decreased the incentive for biogas production, impacting AD profitability. However, increased focus on sustainability and renewable energy post-pandemic may drive renewed interest in AD as a viable waste management and energy generation solution.

The municipal waste segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The municipal waste segment within the anaerobic digestion market has seen significant growth due to increasing awareness about environmental sustainability that has driven municipalities to seek eco-friendly waste management solutions. Anaerobic digestion provides a sustainable method to manage organic waste while generating renewable energy in the form of biogas. Additionally, advancements in anaerobic digestion technology have made it more efficient and cost-effective, further driving its adoption in municipal waste management. Furthermore, partnerships between municipalities and private sector players have facilitated the development of large-scale anaerobic digestion facilities to handle municipal waste effectively.

The electricity generation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The electricity generation segment within the anaerobic digestion market has experienced notable growth due to several factors. Anaerobic digestion facilities harness organic waste materials such as agricultural residues, food waste, and sewage sludge to produce biogas, primarily composed of methane. This biogas is then utilized in generators to produce electricity. The increasing focus on renewable energy sources and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions have propelled the demand for anaerobic digestion systems. Moreover, technological advancements have improved the efficiency and reliability of electricity generation from biogas. Government incentives and policies promoting renewable energy have also stimulated market growth.

Region with largest share:

The Asia-Pacific region has witnessed significant growth in the anaerobic digestion market due to several factors. Increasing awareness about environmental sustainability, coupled with stringent regulations on waste management and carbon emissions, has propelled the adoption of anaerobic digestion technologies. Governments across the region are incentivizing renewable energy projects, fostering a conducive environment for anaerobic digestion systems. Additionally, the abundance of organic waste sources, such as agricultural residues and municipal solid waste, further fuels market expansion. Technological advancements and investments in research and development are also driving efficiency improvements and lowering costs, making anaerobic digestion increasingly attractive in the region's energy landscape.

Region with highest CAGR:

In recent years, North America has witnessed significant growth in the anaerobic digestion market, driven by several factors. Increasing awareness about sustainable waste management practices, stringent environmental regulations, and rising demand for renewable energy sources have propelled the adoption of anaerobic digestion technologies across the region. Additionally, government incentives and subsidies aimed at promoting renewable energy projects have further stimulated market growth. This growth trend is expected to continue as North America prioritizes efforts towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving energy independence through innovative and eco-friendly solutions like anaerobic digestion.
