The factors leading to this new trend are:
| Factor | Example |
| Complex systems with multiple control steps | Coal-fired boilers, cement kilns, chemical processes |
| Valuable final product recovery | Precious metal mining |
| Valuable process product recovery | Refinery catalyst, solvents in chemical and surface treatment |
| Difficult compliance with air permit | Many industries in many countries where even start up and shut down emissions are important |
| Safety | Explosive gases |
| Health | Semiconductor toxic fumes |
| Potential for air pollution control system to negatively impact operations | Many industries |
| Lack of skilled personnel within the plant | Continuous trend |
| Success of remote monitoring | Applicable to all pollutants and operating parameters |
| Ability of suppliers to provide a lower cost alternative | Reduction of repairs, downtime, energy consumption, etc. |
The options available include:
| Options | Example |
| Preliminary system design | CECO offers CFD modeling and design for rolling mill fume control including the important industrial ventilation ductwork to reduce air volume |
| Turnkey system with unique combination of pollution control devices | Megtec sewage sludge incineration systems with oxidizer, scrubber and wet precipitator. Trimer supplies PM2.5 NOx reduction and acid gas capture in one device |
| Turnkey system with total operational control | FLS offers this option for cement kilns |
| System and reagent integration | Dürr and ClearChem supply pulverized limestone injection in the furnace followed by a catalytic filter |
| BOO and byproduct sales | MET offers this system to convert SO2 to ammonium sulfate fertilizer |
| Remote monitoring of operations | Many examples |
| Guaranteed cost bag replacement program | Supplier monitors operations and replaces bags as needed at a fixed yearly cost |
| Routine service programs | Replace all parts in system, regular inspections, continuous remote monitoring |
