Over $3 billion will be spent by municipalities for wastewater and drinking water plants. The continuing population shift to the cities, the higher standard of living and increased expectations are driving infrastructure expansion.
The pump expenditures by power plants will exceed $1.2 billion. There will be an addition of more than 50,000 MW of new power plants this year. In addition, there will be some retrofits of flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems. These systems have large pump requirements. A big effort to reduce NOx is resulting in a market for ammonia pumps.
The chemical industry is growing thanks to both international and domestic investment. Mines will spend over $600 million for pumps for use in China. It is also significant that Chinese companies are influencing pump purchases in Africa and South America.

$7.2 Billion Market for Sedimentation and Centrifugation Equipment In 2014
The market for sedimentation and centrifugation equipment will exceed $7.2 billion in 2014, up from $6.9 billion in 2013. This is the new forecast appearing in the continuously updated online Sedimentation & Centrifugation World Markets report published by the McIlvaine Company. (

Dissolved air floatation and hydrocyclones revenue will exceed $1 billion.
Clarifiers and thickeners are used in mining, wastewater treatment and other processes to separate particles from liquids using gravity. Decanter centrifuges are widely used to dewater municipal sewage sludge. They are also used in many chemical, food and refinery processes.
Disc centrifuges are used to separate liquids-from-liquids as well as solids-from-liquids and are used in dairy, food and drink, fuel oil clarification and many other processes. Other centrifuges includes basket designs used in chemical processes, coal separation and food processes.
Hydrocyclones remove coarser particles and are frequently used in the stone and gravel industries and as preliminary separators in many processes. Dissolved air flotation involves capturing particles on the surfaces of bubbles. It is used in water and wastewater treatment and in the food industry.
The high growth areas include municipal wastewater treatment in Asia, the petrochemical industry in the Middle East, oil sands in Canada and mining in Africa.
Major international suppliers of sedimentation and centrifugation equipment include Alfa Laval, Andritiz, FLS, GEA Westfalia, Pieralisi, Siemens and more than 5,000 other companies. A number of Chinese suppliers have grown rapidly in the last few years and have captured significant market share within China and nearby countries.

Cleanroom Consumable Expenditures will be $7.1 Billion in 2014
Manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, aseptically packaged food, flat panels, solar cells and others who need ultraclean working space will spend $7.1 billion in 2014 for consumables which are specifically designed for ultraclean applications. This is the most recent forecast in the McIlvaine report World Cleanroom Markets. (

There are a number of large players in the market. Suppliers of single-use garment materials include Kimberly Clark and DuPont. Reusable garments are often rented and not sold. The laundries or processors have to clean these garments in ultraclean environments. Garments are frequently disposed of or cleaned after each exit from the clean space. Aramark and Prudential Uniform supply the garments as part of the processing fees.
Another large company entered the cleanroom industry a few years ago. ITW purchased Texwipe and became a leading supplier of wipes. A number of the glove suppliers are large companies. Much of the manufacturing of wipes, gloves and single-use garments is now in Asia.
The supplies market includes special mops, mats and furniture which have to be built so as not to shed particulate or volatile organic compounds. Two thirds of the supplies market consist of the various cleaning chemicals and disinfectants used in cleanrooms.
East Asian purchases of cleanroom consumables are not only larger than other regions but are growing at a faster rate. This is due to the expansion of the flat panel, semiconductor, solar cell and medical device industries in the region.
Another significant trend is the production of generic drugs by international companies in India, China and other Asian countries.
