Top Three Air and Water Monitoring Companies Have 13% Market Share, But Only 6% in Asia
Asia is the largest market for air and water monitoring equipment. The three largest players have only a 6 percent share of this market even though their world share is over 13 percent. This is the conclusion reached in the McIlvaine Air & Water Pollution Monitoring World. (
www.mcilvainecompany.com) In 2012, the world air and water monitoring revenues were just under $21 billion. Forty-four percent of the total was in Asia.$ Million

In 2012, the top three air and water monitoring suppliers generated revenue of $2.8 billion or 13 percent of the world total. However, their Asian revenues were only $578 million or 6 percent of the Asian market.

All three companies, along with most of the international suppliers, are targeting the Asian market for major growth. Thermo Fisher has established its main air pollution research center in China and has made substantial investment in the region. Because Asian countries tend to adopt international standards, there is an advantage for those suppliers who have been accredited in the U.S. or Europe. Emerson and Thermo Fisher are U.S. based and Endress + Hauser is a European company. These suppliers must compete against international suppliers home based in the developed Asian countries. Yokogawa and Horiba are major players in the international market.

The international companies must also compete with rapidly growing domestic suppliers in China who are likely to expand beyond their own borders.

The three largest valve companies (Pentair, Emerson and Flowserve) have captured 10 percent of the world industrial valve market but have only a 5.2 percent share of the Asian market. This is the conclusion reached in Industrial Valves: World Markets published by the McIlvaine Company
www.mcilvainecompany.com. The total world market last year was over $53 billion. Asia accounted for 42 percent of the market.Valve Revenues ($ Millions) *

The top three valve companies are U.S. based. Their penetration of the Asian market has been only half what it has been in other markets. Asian sales range from 20 to 22 percent of total sales for the individual companies.Valve Market Shares

The international valve companies see this lack of Asian penetration as a growth opportunity. They are building manufacturing facilities in Asia and striving to reach the same penetration level as in other regions. There is another equally compelling argument that this lack of strength in Asia opens the door to more international competition. Other suppliers both Asian and non-Asian have the opportunity to build a base in Asia which will allow them to compete more effectively in the rest of the world. Chinese manufacturers are moving up the quality chain and even supplying nuclear grade valves.
More than 80 percent of the new coal-fired power plants will be built in Asia over the next few years. The majority will be of the supercritical design which requires valves to function under higher temperatures and pressures. The successful valve suppliers will be able to use this expertise as supercritical boilers are built elsewhere in the world. China is a leader in coal to chemicals and coal to gasoline. Valve requirements for this application are challenging. This is another opportunity for competitors. The many new chemical plants under construction in Asia offer similar opportunities.

Plant Performance Asian Ultrapure Water Sales to Exceed $3 Billion in 2015 In the rapidly growing Asian market, sales of ultrapure water systems and consumables will exceed $3 billion for the first time ever in 2015. This is the conclusion reached in the McIlvaine online report Ultrapure Water World Markets. Industry Totals ($ Thousands) Industry 2015 Coal-Fired Power 1,044,935 Electronics 993,932 Flat Panel 662,483 Gas Turbines 33,210 Industrial Power 172,169 Other Industries 79,009 Pharmaceutical 138,426
Asia is building more new coal-fired power plants than the rest of the world combined. The majority of these power plants are of the ultrasupercritical design. These power plants need the highest purity boiler feedwater. Contrary to public perception, the Chinese fleet is operating more efficiently than the U.S. counterpart. The reason being that most of the Chinese plants have been built since 2000. By contrast, the average coal-fired power plant in the U.S. is more than forty years old. Asia has been quick to embrace newer technologies such as electrodeionization (EDI) as a substitute for ion exchange. Asia is proceeding with come nuclear power plants. These power plants require the highest quality water. Combined cycle gas turbine plants also require high quality water but their needs per megawatt are less than half of that of a coal-fired power plant. Over 50 percent of the market is attributable to the electronics and flat panel segment. Asia has more electronics facilities using ultrapure water than the other continents combined. One of the bigger growth segments in China has been photovoltaic cells for the solar industry. These plants do require ultrapure water although not as pure as required for semiconductor manufacture. The one application where Asia does not dominate is pharmaceuticals. Water for injection (WFI) needs to be ultrapure because it is mixed with substances which are then injected into humans. The bulk of the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals is still in the U.S. and Europe. Special instrumentation which can measure
dissolved oxygen and other constituents in parts per billion are required in
ultrapure water systems. There are a series of filtration steps ending in
treatment by reverse osmosis. Even after the water is ultrapure there is a
concern about re-contamination in pumps and piping. Consequently, in a
semiconductor plant, the water leaving the RO system passes through piping
and then into an end point membrane cartridge filter before being used to
wash the wafer. |
