Steam Trap Valve Market

Steam Trap Valve Market Snapshot (2022-2032)

Global steam trap valve demand is anticipated to be valued at US$ 4.16 Billion in 2022, forecast to grow at a CAGR of 4.4% to be valued at US$ 6.4 Billion from 2022 to 2032. Growth is attributed to increased demand for silicone elastomers, especially across the automotive and construction industries.

Steam trap valve, most commonly a type of automatic valve, filters non-condensable gases and condensed steam such as air. Steam trap valve are utilized in various industries such as power generation, food & beverages, oil & gas, etc. in order to ensure that steam is not wasted because it is used as a heating medium or a driving force for mechanical power.

Steam trap valve is available in various types of materials, including cast iron, carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, etc. across the globe. Steam trap valve works in various technologies which include thermodynamic, mechanical and thermostatic, etc.

Among the types available in the market, thermodynamic steam trap valve is most commonly utilized for steam mains drainage owing to the various advantages associated with it, which include long life and robust structure.

Which are Some Prominent Drivers Spearheading Steam Trap Valve Market Growth

The growth in the oil & gas exploration & production activities is expected to assist the demand for steam trap valve over the near future. In the recent past, the U.S. has witnessed significant growth in terms of oil & gas exploration activities owing to rising demand for fuel. Further, invention of new technologies regarding extraction of shale gas and subsea oil extraction are found to be the key factors assisting the demand for steam trap valve.

On the other hand, imposition of strict governmental regulations for the production of valves is projected to be one of the key challenges for the growth of the global steam trap valve market.

Prominent manufacturers involved in the global steam trap valve are involved in the introduction of thermostatic bimetallic steam trap valves that offer lower cost of ownership and energy-saving benefits as compared to that of other types of steam trap valves available in the market across the globe. Further, some of the manufacturers are focusing on the introduction of products that allow rapid steam trap replacement and also reduces labor costs.

How is the Significant Growth in the Oil and Gas Industry Driving Steam Trap Valve Industry

The increasing automation across industries such as oil and gas along with the increasing number of offshore and onshore exploratory activities is one of the primary reasons behind the significant growth. Furthermore, the substantial rise in the demand for durable and light-weight steam traps is also one of the reasons behind the growth as they have longer shelf life.

The steam trap valves act as a physical barrier and are used for fluid catalytic cracking and de-cocking processes in the oil and gas refineries. Moreover, factors such as enhanced design flexibility and cost-effectiveness add to the overall demand and growth.
