Gate, Globe and Ball Valves will be the Most Popular in the $61 Billion
Industrial Valve Market in 2015
The market for industrial valves will be just under $61 billion/yr by 2015.
Gate, globe and ball valve revenues will each exceed $12 billion. The leading
purchaser will be Asia. These are the most recent conclusions in the McIlvaine
report: Industrial Valves World Markets published by the McIlvaine
Company. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

By 2015, Asia will be buying almost twice as many industrial valves as Europe.
The infrastructure and heavy industry growth in the region is causing double
digit increases in annual purchases.
Globe valves will be the leader by valve type. Ball valves will be second
on the leader list.

McIlvaine has substantially changed the valve categories to focus on the
physical valve type rather than use. Previously, control valves were
treated as a separate category regardless of their type. The revised categories
most closely follow the segmentation used by the valve suppliers. The
scope also reflects the perspective of the valve supplier rather than some
precise and less meaningful segmentation.
The valve revenues are defined as those sales reported in the valve segment by
the suppliers. So, if actuators are sold by the valve supplier, they are
included. Where actuators are sold directly by an actuator manufacturer to
the end user, they are not included.
With this definition the valve total revenues equal the reported revenues of all
the valve suppliers. McIlvaine also estimates sales for hundreds of valve
manufacturers. These validate the total revenue estimates which are also
determined by models in each industry.

Asia is the Leading Purchaser in the $7.6 Billion Sedimentation and
Centrifugation Market
Asia will spend $4.2 billion for sedimentation and centrifugation equipment in
2014. This is more than twice what will be spent in the Americas and more than
three times what will be spent in Europe. This is the conclusion reached
in the latest update of Sedimentation/Centrifugation World Markets
published by the McIlvaine Company. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

In Asia, clarifiers will be the leading product. Many of these clarifiers will
be built by Asian based companies. Purchases of centrifuges will exceed $1.6
billon. These machines are much more difficult to fabricate. Therefore,
they tend to be supplied by international companies.

Andritz has made considerable penetration of the sewage sludge centrifuge
market. GEA Westfalia Separator Group built a centrifuge production plant in the
city of Wuqing, China. Other international centrifuge suppliers have either
partnerships or subsidiaries in Asia.
Eight Alfa Laval decanter centrifuges are installed in steel mills owned by
Anshan Iron & Steel Group Corporation (AISC). They separate valuable
scales and iron oxides that AISC successfully recovers from the steel forming
operations.
The 13th China International Petroleum & Petrochemical Technology and Equipment
Exhibition held in Beijing on March 19 - 21, 2013 is illustrative of the mix of
international and local centrifuges available to Chinese purchasers.
Chinese centrifuge companies exhibiting their products included
Tangshan Guanneng Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd.
(Short Name: GN Solids Control) and Jiangsu Huada Centrifugal Machine
Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
International companies were represented by Chengdu
Tiansheng Centrifuge Technology which offers the Centrysis centrifuges. Melchers
Company is the exclusive Partner of Ferrum Ltd. in China. Flottweg and Hiller
were also exhibitors.
There has been considerable expansion of sedimentation and centrifugation
manufacturing in Asia. This trend will continue at a double-digit pace.

Many Double Digit Growth Niches in the Water/Wastewater Treatment and Control
Market
The market for treating and controlling fluids (water, petroleum liquids,
wastewater and slurries) was $232 billion in 2012. It is growing at 5
percent per year prior to adjustment for inflation but there are portions which
are growing at double digit rates. This is the conclusion reached by
McIlvaine through extraction of forecasts from a number of the market reports it
publishes. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

One double digit growth segment in “flow” is “smart valves.” Technology
offered by the valve manufacturer to report and analyze performance and
maintenance data is a rapidly growing revenue segment.
There are a number of segments within the treatment which are yielding double
digit growth. Ballast water treatment is one. Seventy thousand ships will
have to spend more than $1 million each to filter and disinfect discharge water.
Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) are the newest form of fish farming
production system. RAS are typically an indoor system that allows for farmers to
control environmental conditions year round. While the costs associated with
constructing a RAS are typically higher than either pond or cage culture, if the
system is managed properly to produce fish on a year round basis, the economic
returns can make it worth the increased investment. Treatment of the
recirculating water along with regulation of oxygen is a double digit growth
market
RAS can also be located at existing power plants and take advantage of waste
steam. This further reduces costs of fish production. Combining water
treatment and power is a double digit growth category because of many
opportunities beyond RAS.
One opportunity is co-location of sewage treatment and power plants. Through the
technique of sewer mining, the power plant processes the sewage passing nearby
the plant. The waste heat dries the sludge which is then burned in the
power plant. The treated wastewater is used for power plant cooling and
boiler feed water.
Sewer mining is also growing at double digit rates in the form of satellite
treatment plants. With the advent of membrane bio-reactors (MBR), it is
possible to economically purify the wastewater generated by a distant new
sub-division. This lessens the burden on the central plant and eliminates
the transport system cost otherwise incurred.
Another growth segment is the automation of pollutant monitoring at municipal
wastewater plants. Systems continually measuring as many as twenty
different pollutants allow more efficient operation of the plant, lower
pollutant discharges, less chemical consumption and more accurate reporting.
