Draught Fan Market Segment Analysis:
Forced Draught Fans Segment is dominating the Draught Fan Market:
According to the World Resources Institute, forced draught fans are the dominating segment in the market owing to the structural advantage of FD fans and the maximum fuel efficiency achieved by forced draught fans. Moreover, the fans are situated at the boiler inlet to maintain the proper mixing of air and fuel in the system. In addition, FD fans are used as primary fans in coal-fueled power plants for proper combustion regulation.
Centrifugal Fans segment is considered to supplement the growth of Draught Fan Market:
Higher energy efficiency generated by centrifugal fans and enhanced durability of fans is the key factor attributing to the growth of the segment in the market. Moreover, centrifugal fans are embedded according to non-overload curves which sustain the higher level of efficiency for longer periods of time. In addition, the ability of centrifugal fans to be operated in a corrosive environment is the key advantage of the CF in the end-use applications.
Owing to the above factors, many prominent players in the market is now inclining towards manufacturing of centrifugal fans as they are proved to be easy to maintain and available in numerous sizes and shapes across the globe. Moreover, the aerodynamic properties of centrifugal fans give them an extra edge in the market.
Flue Gas Recirculation Fans: New Trend in the Global Draught Fan market:
FGR fans are typically used in power plant boilers and chimney outlets to reduce the flue gas emission from the industries. The flue gas recirculation method reduces the NOx emissions from the industry and prevents the system from burning. NOx is considered as the most harmful gas and the largest contributor to greenhouse gases. Recirculating fans circulated the harmful emissions directly to the combustion chamber again and the gas is used again as the reaction agent in boilers. Generally, backward curved CFs are used as recirculation fans.
The popularity of centrifugal fans across various industry verticals is the key factor considered to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. Moreover, stringent regulations towards environment safety is the factor attributing to the growth in the trend of recirculation fans.
