Boilers are closed vessels which are used to store water inside it. In the heating system, a furnace is required to heat the boiler, wherein fuels such as coal are used for heat generation. The heated air comes in contact with the vessel, where convention takes place and heats the water inside a vessel. This heated water produces steam. The vaporized or heated fluid then used for various heating applications including water heating, sanitation, boiler-based power generation, and others.
The global industrial boilers market is growing at a good pace and is anticipated to witness a good growth in the coming years. There are various kind of boilers are available in the market, however the boilers used for industrial purpose falls into the industrial boilers category.
Market Segmentation
Insight by Type
On the basis of type, the industrial boilers market is classified into fire-tube and water-tube. The fire-tube type category dominated the market, which is also anticipated to register the faster growth in the coming years. This can be attributed to its compact design and efficient operation capabilities. Also, they are simple in design, easy to erect, low maintenance, overall efficiency is up to 75% for this type of boilers. On the contrary, water-tube boilers are complex in design, difficult to erect, high maintenance, although, overall efficiency with an economizer is up to 90%.
Insight by Fuel Type
Based on fuel type, the industrial boilers market is segmented into natural gas and biomass, oil, coal, and others. Among all these, natural gas and biomass is projected to hold the largest share in the overall market and dominated the market till now. This is attributed to its extensive use in various end-user industries including metal and mining, chemical, and others are shifting towards natural gas to use it as a primary fuel in the boilers. As natural gas is environment friendly, it is being preferred by industries as compared to coal, particularly in developed countries.
Insight by End-User
Based on end-user, the industrial boilers market is classified into chemical, food, refineries, metal and mining, and others. Of all these, chemical industry segment dominated the market, wherein food industry segment is anticipated to register the fastest growth in the coming years, owing to the escalating demand of processed and packaged foods in the developed countries.
