Research Related to Bio-Based Dust Suppression Agents Bolsters Middle East & Africa Dust Control or Suppression Chemicals Market
Research and development related to innovative and bio-based dust suppressants is growing rapidly. Researchers and manufacturers are evaluating the environmental impact of dust control or suppression chemicals. Several studies are also being conducted to develop dust control solutions from biodegradable feedstock. This includes organic polymers, biodegradable surfactants, or plant-based compounds. In 2021, BioBlend Renewable Resources developed EPIC EL dust suppressant, funded by the United Soybean Board and the North Dakota Soybean Council. EPIC EL dust suppressant is a soy-based dust suppressant that contains glycerin, a co-product of biodiesel production.
Several government authorities also evaluate the effectiveness of bio-based dust suppression chemicals. The United States Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) evaluated green, non-corrosive, high-performing dust suppressant technologies for updating dust and field manuals used by the Army and Department of Defense. ERDC conducted a laboratory and field study to evaluate the effectiveness of bio-sourced dust suppressants based on their ability to mitigate dust. Therefore, research related to bio-based dust suppression agents is expected to drive the dust control or suppression chemicals market.
Middle East & Africa Dust Control or Suppression Chemicals Market Overview
The countries in the Middle East & Africa are rapidly developing their public infrastructure, including airports, hospitals, and administrative buildings. The construction of the commercial infrastructure sector in the region has upsurged due to the rising tourism industry and the growing immigrant population.
