Reverse Flame Steam Boiler Market Size, Share And Global Trend By Capacity(Up to 100kW, 100-1000 kW, Above 1000 kW), By End-Use(Food Industry, Chemical Industry, Refineries, Metal Industry, Power Plant), And Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

The reverse flame steam boiler runs on a process in which the hot gases pass through fire and run through one or many tubes. The water running outside these tubes gets heated by thermal conduction and is converted into steam which further runs a turbine to generate electricity. Various companies operating in steam boilers are experiencing the pressing need to optimize their fuel efficiency and reduce the harmful environmental impact as the government implications have become strict regarding the emissions. The advantages offered by reverse flame steam boilers are namely lesser carbon emissions, higher operating efficiency, and the greater heat transfer area make these boilers more preferable over the traditional boilers. Reverse flame steam boilers are also available in various capacities which makes them available for all capacity of plant operators.

On the basis of capacity, global reverse flame steam boiler market can be segmented into up to 100 kW, 100 kW-1000 kW and above 1000 kW. The above 1000 kW segment has been on a rise in recent years owing to the rise in the demand for energy and its advantage to generate more power.

SEGMENTATION

Regional Analysis

The global reverse flame steam boiler market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Europe has dominated the reverse flame steam boiler market with the increased use of natural gas and biomass as a fuel for boilers. The switch from traditional steam boilers to refined and energy saving biomass-fired reverse flame steam boilers in countries like Italy has been the driving factor in this region’s growth. China has dominated the reverse flame steam boiler market in the Asia Pacific region. The drift towards the clean source of energy has seen the USA invest in gas-fired plants helping reverse flame stem boiler market to grow in the North America region.

Key Industry Developments

• In April 2019, Trelleborg Wheel Systems installed the advanced Biomass Boiler at the Sri Lanka plant located at Makola near Colombo. This step will reduce the CO2 emissions of the tire producing plants from 11,000 tons per year to less than 1000 tons per year. This switch from furnace oil to biomass will also increase the efficiency of the plant.
• In May 2019, Longview Power President and CEO Jeff Keffer announced about the company’s plans to start a gas-fired combined cycle power plant near its existing coal plant. As the company is not into coal business this coal plant would be the last of its kind and from here the gas power plant would be further developed and used by the company for power generation.
• In April 2019, Valmet has received an order from Biomasse Energie d’Alizay to covert a recovery boiler into biomass boiler utilizing bubbling fluidized bed technology (BFB) at DA Alizey mill in France. Electricity production of the plant will be 50MWe and it will also supply steam to power a paper mill.
