Market Overview

The Global Industrial Indirect Fired Air Heaters Market size is projected to register a CAGR of approximately 3.7% during the forecast period 2023-2031.

A fired air heater is a device that generates heat by burning gas, oil, or a combination of the two. Fired air heaters are industrial heaters used in petroleum refining and steam production industries. These fired air heaters are known worldwide as furnaces, process furnaces, and process heaters. Fired air heaters are common in the hydrocarbon and chemical processing industries, such as oil refineries, gas plants, petrochemical, chemical and synthetic, olefin, ammonia, and fertilizer factories.

Industrial Fired Air Heaters are of two types, Direct-fired air heaters and Indirect fired heaters. In a direct-fired heater, the heating process is done by directly passing hot air. At the same time, an indirect-fired air heater does not have direct contact with the system; instead, of adding more gases and passing to the heat exchangers.

Indirect-fired air heaters are widely used in the event industry to heat marquees and temporary structures, keeping guests warm without noise, smells, or fumes. These units are also used where delicate and combustible materials are being stored; being indirect, they keep the flame separate from the airflow.

Market Dynamics

Market Drivers

  • Rising Industrial Application In Medical and Pharmaceuticals

Medical and pharmaceutical firms are demanding indirect-fired air heaters, generally for pharmaceutical manufacturing for heating and drying products. They can be safely used in a wide variety of scenarios, both indoors and outdoors. Indirect-fired air heaters exhaust heat downstream to eliminate pollutants without adding additional contaminants. This helps patients with major breathing issues in hospitals. These reasons are resulting in demand for indirect-fired air heaters, which leads to an increase in the market share of the Industrial indirect-fired air heaters market.

  • Demand In Chemical Processing Operations

Indirect-fired air heaters are used to dry chemically sensitive products such as foods, grains, malt, dairy, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, etc. They provide outdoor operation, which is associated with decreased heating efficiency, but much of the energy can be recovered by recirculating clean air. Using tubes, the warm air generated by these units can be distributed to multiple spaces at once, which will help reduce factories' energy consumption. It saves maintenance costs, which makes it relatively cost-effective.

Market Restraints

  • Lack of Awareness and High Investment Cost

International regulatory bodies expect manufacturers of fired heaters to follow certain rules and regulations. Important rules about the materials used to line fired heaters force makers to find more environmentally friendly options. Price trends show that because gas heaters are complicated and big, they need to be installed by a professional, which costs the end user more money. Also, maintenance costs for fired heaters are higher than for other types, making them more expensive and keeping people from using them.

Market Opportunities

  • Increasing Demand In Various Industries

Increasing construction activities, especially in developing countries, is another important factor driving the market’s growth. The rise in oil & gas exploration and production activities and the stringent government regulations regarding environmental protection are projected to drive the demand for indirect-fired air heaters during the forecast period. While enhancing worker safety is a heater’s primary job, these solutions can also achieve optimal conditions for products in storage, dry out wet concrete and prevent equipment from malfunctioning in cold conditions, among other industrial and commercial applications.

Segmental Analysis

Segmentation By Type

  • Under 500 K BTU/H

Indirect Fired Heaters are highly efficient devices that provide large volumes of 100% clean, dry, and fume-free warm air. They are best for places with limited ventilation, like shops, event tents, food preparation areas, exhibition halls, and construction sites. They can be used with flexible ducts that easily spread warm air.

  • 500-1000 K BTU/H

It provides a large volume of 100% clean, dry, fume-free warm air and odorless heat.

  • Over 1000 K BTU/H

It is ideal for large indoor spaces and outdoor applications. It has forklift capability from all four sides.

Segmentation By Application

  • Oil & Gas

Indirectly-fired air heaters are among its most important applications in the oil and gas industry. The oil and gas industry consumes energy at a very high rate. Oil and gas production facilities use indirect-fired line heaters to heat the fluid before it enters the pipeline. This sector extensively uses an indirect-fired air heater on a wide scale to keep the temperature consistent throughout the various processes. The oil and gas industry is anticipated to expand quickly over the following years, increasing demand for indirect-fired air heaters in this application category.

  • Airline

Indirect-fired heaters are used in commercial aviation, construction, and exploration. In these industries, safety is not just a concern but is a requirement for any manufacturer producing a modern heater. These heaters are used to maintain the cabin temperature of aircraft. This need for indirect-fired air heaters in the airline industry leads to this global market.

  • Mining & Construction
