Acoustic Pyrometer Market: Introduction
- Acoustic pyrometer is a non-contact measurement device that obtains highly accurate instant gas temperature data from any location within a boiler
- The acoustic pyrometer system helps boiler operators to reduce slagging by maintaining optimal furnace exit gas temperatures
- It also helps manage critical temperature profiles to aid in emissions reduction, as well as reduce tube damage or leaks by preventing hot spots and thermal shock
- The acoustic pyrometer is an advanced instrument that provides fully automatic measurement of high combustion-gas temperatures and permits fuel trimming control within heaters & boilers. Advancements in instrument help drive the acoustic pyrometer market.
- In addition to temperature measurement, the acoustic pyrometer can be used for leak detection and constantly listens to boiler noises in order to measure preset noise thresholds and time durations, and identifies persistent sounds indicative of leaks. This helps to fuel the demand for acoustic pyrometer.
Rising Demand for Acoustic Pyrometer in Power Plant Applications
- Based on application, the market can be segmented into power plant, boilers, refineries and petrochemicals
- The power plant segment is estimated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to the increasing use of acoustic pyrometer for measurement of high combustion gas temperatures
- Acoustic pyrometer offers numerous benefits such as real-time temperature data, which helps control and optimize operation, offers better process control, improves product quality, minimizes regrind, and helps reduce emissions and NOx generation. These factors also boost the adoption of acoustic pyrometer.
- The acoustic pyrometer is best suited for high temperature and dusty conditions, and monitor on-line of the distribution of temperature field in boiler furnace, which is vital to reduce emissions that cause pollution and damages to environment in the power plants. This boosts the demand for acoustic pyrometers in power plant applications.
- For instances, in China at the Xinyuan power plant, the continuous measurement furnace temperature on the 700MW supercritical boiler furnace during the full load is a difficult issue. To overcome this problem, they installed acoustic pyrometers at the plant.
- Increasing usage of acoustic pyrometer can improve combustion efficiency and optimize boiler and heaters operations, which results into low maintenance, increased up time, extended service life with efficient performance. This, in turn, is propelling the acoustic pyrometer market.
Asia Pacific to Lead Global Acoustic Pyrometer Market
- In terms of region, the global acoustic pyrometer market can be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa
- Asia Pacific dominated the global market due to increase in demand for temperature measuring devices in industrial sector and rise in industrial automation among various manufacturing industries in the region. Innovation in technologies is also expected to drive the demand for acoustic pyrometer.
- The acoustic pyrometer market in Asia Pacific is expected to expand at a high growth rate due to presence of major players and increased competition among them in the region. The market in North America is likely to expand at a steady pace during forecast period because of less competition in the region.
