Shell And Tube Heat Exchanger Market Growth & Trends:
The global shell and tube heat exchangers market size is expected to reach USD 9,203.2 million by 2030, expanding at 5.6% CAGR from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing penetration of shell & tube heat exchangers in the chemicals and petrochemical industry is anticipated to expand the market growth. Furthermore, declining prices of exotic metals and escalating demand for shell & tube heat exchangers in the oil & gas industry would also surge demand over the coming years.
China's chemical industry is expected to grow by approximately 6% (y-o-y) over the coming years according to the International Monetary Fund. This is expected to boost the construction of new chemical plants, resulting in surging the demand for shell and tube heat exchangers over the forecast period.
Titanium shell & tube heat exchangers are used in a wide range of applications in chemical, power generation, petrochemical, and desalination plants. The characteristics of titanium, such as high resistance to stress corrosion in various liquids, including aqueous chlorides such as seawater or brine, wet halogens & halides, and hot acidic & highly oxidizing solutions, such as nitric acid & ferric chloride, are expected to augment its demand in shell & tube heat exchangers.
Additive manufacturing techniques are replacing traditional manufacturing methods such as welding or brazing, alignment, die-casting, milling, stamping, or a combination of methods. Additive manufacturing (AM) aids in facilitating the innovation of advanced titanium shell & tube heat exchangers. The limitations of traditional methods are rectified in AM techniques.
Traditional heat exchangers registered an enormous footprint, thus, augmenting the facility layout area and overall construction expenses of the facility. Maintenance and disassembly of the equipment result in further costs for facility owners. Shell & tube components also incur expensive maintenance costs owing to their large size and component weight.
Heat exchangers with smaller sizes and improved heat transfer efficiency have been developed in response to growing concerns about energy loss and building costs. Due to the aforementioned causes, welded spiral heat exchangers, plate & frame, shell & tube, and micro-channel heat exchangers are now more commonly utilized in end-use industries.
Key companies are strategizing to increase revenue generation, with a focus on R&D, mergers & acquisitions, and geographic expansion. For instance, in August 2022, Bell & Gossett, a brand of Xylem, announced that the company has unified ESP-Thermal, an online plate, and shell & tube heat exchanger selection program, into the Xylem ESP-Systemwize selection tool.
Shell And Tube Heat Exchanger Market Report Highlights:
