Chemical Sensor Market - Insights

The global chemical sensor market was valued at US$ 18,361.2 Mn in 2018 and is expected to reach US$ 32,277.8 Mn in 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.6% over the forecast period (2019 to 2027). Chemical sensors are devices which transform information concerning presence of chemical elements into an analytically useful signal. Chemical sensors are classified into two major components such as physicochemical transducer and chemical recognition systems. Chemical sensors which primarily operate in real-time are physically small and controlled by kinetics and thermodynamics of a chemical reaction. The growing concerns about homeland security and environmental monitoring, coupled with rapid industrialization in emerging economies, are some of the factors which are expected to drive growth of the chemical sensor market. Moreover, advancements in the medical field have resulted in increasing application of chemical sensors in different medical devices such as wearable and implanted devices for the patients, which is also expected to be a major factor aiding growth of the global chemical sensors market over the forecast period. Increasing government initiatives regarding environmental safety are also expected to drive growth of the global market over the forecast period. Technological advancements are driving demand for chemical sensors in industries such as pharmaceutical, food and beverages, and chemical processing among others.

Growing energy consumption and unwanted release of pollutants is driving growth of the chemical sensors market

Chemical sensors are used in industries for process monitoring and control in order to ensure environmental safety, and restoration. Chemical sensors track hazardous chemicals and toxic gases, in addition to identifying and analyzing natural and man-made incidents such as waterways infestation and air pollution. Moreover, military and other security forces make use of chemical sensors to track chemical agents during chemical warfare. Furthermore, carbon monoxide (CO) detection systems, smoke alarms, and pH meters are some of the major application areas of chemical sensors. High occurrence of chronic diseases and increasing application of chemical sensors in healthcare applications is propelling the market. Among region, North America is expected to hold a significant market share over the forecast period, owing to increasing application of chemical sensors in different industries for environmental monitoring in the U.S. and Canada. However, poor life span of chemical sensors is one of the major factor restraining growth of the market.
