WELCOME
Weekly selected highlights in flow control, treatment and combustion from the
many McIlvaine publications.
Free Webinar on February 7 Covering Combust, Flow, Treat and IIoT in Shale Oil
and Gas
Shale oil and gas are contributing to solid growth in the U.S. economy and
increasing markets for combust, flow and treat companies. The markets and
technology will be covered in an hour long free webinar on February 7.
Market forecasts for guide, control and measure products and services along with
pumps, valves and wastewater treatment including zero liquid discharge will be
provided. The forecasts include the processes at the drilling site. They
also include transmission and processing.
Market shares for operators along with purchases by EPC's will be addressed.

$250 billion 2022 Market for Guide, Control and Measure in Combust, Flow and
Treat (CFT)
The $2 trillion market for products and systems which combust, move, treat gases
including air, liquids including fuels and water and free flowing solids is
growing at 4 percent per year. Thanks to the accelerating adoption of the
industrial internet of things (IIoT), the guide, control and measure products
and services segment will be growing at a faster rate than the whole according
to the latest forecasts in the McIlvaine publication IIoT and Remote O&M.
Guide:
includes software for process management and support for automated operation of
processes. It includes data analytics and subject matter expertise related to
CFT. It includes asset management, predictive maintenance and other
enterprise management tools related to the operations. It does not include
human resources or other non-operations related software. The application
scope is the user industries including oil, gas, power, refining, chemical,
pharmaceuticals, mining, metals, pulp and paper, water and wastewater treatment
and other industrial processes using CFT.
For those industries making discrete products such as semiconductors the scope
only includes CFT and not guidance relative to the product manufacturing.
The CAGR for this segment will be 10%. This high growth rate is predicated
on the use of the Industrial Internet of Wisdom (IIoW) to empower IIoT and
increase the ROI on IIoT investments.
Control:
includes all the products from wireless transmitters to cloud based data
processing. They communicate and organize data and then operate processes. It
includes SCADA, PLCs, DCS, edge computing and then transmission to and from the
cloud. This segment has a 7% CAGR.
Measure - air:
Analyzers measuring flow, pressure, contaminants, temperature and other
parameters for air, stack gas, process gas and vapors (e.g. steam) are included
in this segment. It also includes measurements such as vibration of air
moving equipment. The segment is growing at 7 %.
Measure - liquids:
this segment includes analyzers measuring level, flow, pressure, temperature,
contaminants, density, viscosity and other parameters in water, fuels, slurries
and other liquids. It also includes related measurements such as corrosion
potential or strain on a shaft.
Measure: - free flowing solids.
this category is often referred to as powder and bulk solids and includes small
diameter particles such as dust conveyed from a filter to larger solids such as
grain or coal. Measurement includes, particle size, flow, level, weight,
temperature, chemical constituents and other parameters. This segment also
has a predicted 7% CAGR.
IIoT and Remote O&M
contains forecasts for each product in each industry in each country of the
world for the next five years. It also includes forecasts for the 500
largest purchasers. Since these products will be increasingly
specified or purchased by the corporate staff and not the plants it is important
to predict worldwide purchases by each of the large companies who comprise more
than half of the total market.

Coal Fired Boiler Decisions Provides Supplier/End User Interconnections
This service includes a website which provides the four knowledge needs by
specifiers and operators of coal fired power plants: Alerts, Answers,
Analysis and Advancement.
The Alerts include four monthly newsletters: FGD & DeNOx, Fabric Filters,
Electrostatic Precipitators, and IIoT and Remote O&M.
Answers are provided by a searchable intelligence system and recorded webinars.
Analysis is provided in the decision systems which are included in the service.
Advancement or training is easily facilitated by the organized information on
the site.
