North America is currently the biggest market of activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas. The U.S. is the largest consumer of activated carbon for mercury control in this region. The Environmental protection agency (EPA) has set limits for new power plants under the Mercury and air toxics standards (MATS) related to control of mercuric emission. These regulations make the activated carbon for mercury control favourable for growth in this region. These factors are affecting the growth rate of activated carbon for mercury control in North America. The market in flue gas is projected to reach ,112.11million by 2019.

Coal burning (all uses including power plants) is currently the biggest application of activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas market .Because of its power, heat and electricity generation capacity and availability at low cost ,the coal is used for high number of industrial and domestic purposes such as steel production, cement manufacturing and alumina refineries. Coal burning is the process where in which the large amount of mercuric emission takes place. The activated carbon is used in this process to lessen the amount of flue gas from coal burning. The coal burning (all uses including power plants) application market is projected to reach ,638.96million by 2019.North America is presently the largest consumer of activated carbon for mercury control in flue gas. The market size, in terms of value, for coal burning (all uses including power plants) in North America is estimated to register a CAGR of 21.99% between2014 and 2019.
