Rise In Energy Prices: You May Need A New Boiler

When one examines the continuation of fuel prices not to add worries about a power shortage, products such as industrial boilers increase in significance in North American industrial applications. These industrial applications include hospitals, manufacturing facilities and most college campuses, just to name a few. According to Frost & Sullivan, this trend fuels growth in the replacement and retrofit market for industrial boilers. Those facilities who are wrestling with cost in fuel, especially with older boilers where they are often less efficient are encouraged to replace this equipment with new and more efficient industrial boilers.

Natural gas is the cleanest of the fossil fuels. Natural gas is made up of mostly methane, the main products of the combustion of natural gas are carbon dioxide and water vapor, identical to what we as humans exhale when breathing. Coal and oil are have a lot more complex molecules, with a heightened carbon ratio and higher nitrogen and sulfur contents. This means more harmful emissions, including a higher ratio of carbon emissions, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and sulfur dioxide (SO2).

“Significant improvements in productivity and resilient consumer spending are key aspects of the economic recovery in North America.” Analysts said the potential for economic growth increases when change occurs in energy prices, productivity gains and global economic stability.

The use of fossil fuels for energy contributes to a number of environmental problems. As the cleanest of the fossil fuels, natural gas can be used in many ways to help reduce the emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere. Burning natural gas in the place of other fossil fuels emits fewer harmful pollutants into the atmosphere, and an increased reliance on natural gas can potentially reduce the emission of many of these most harmful pollutants.

The current energy growth rate of industrial steam demand in the US is approximately 2% per year or 336 BCF per year. It is expected that low NOx boilers will capture a significant portion of that market, as nations continue to focus lowering costs first and the environmental concerns second.
