Boiler Industry in China, 2011-2020 - New Market Study Published

Coal is one of the major fuels for industrial production and daily life in China. However, most of the coal for industrial boilers is raw coal without washing and extraction, containing a high percentage of dust and sulfur with relatively larger molecule size. Therefore, The combustion efficiency of coal burning is low while the pollutant emission level is high which accounts for 45%-65% of urban air pollution. Reducing the use of coal while promoting gas will be a fast and effective way to solve air pollution.

As China's environmental pollution is getting more serious, governments at different levels are gradually restricting the use of coal fired boilers. Besides, they also provide subsidies to companies for coal-to-gas transformation. Gas fired boilers rapidly take up the market share of coal fired ones.

Without governmental subsidies, it is not economically viable to transform one unit set of coal fired boilers into a single unite set of gas fired ones. However, it is practicable for the transformation of several sets of coal fired boilers into one set of gas fired ones.

In 2013, China's State Council officially published its Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan, kicking off the cleaning of air pollution. In the plan, it put forward the idea of reconstructing small inefficient coal fired boilers, pointing out "by 2017, all prefecture-level or above cities, unless necessary to retain, should phase out coal fired boilers of 10 steam tons per hour or below in their built-up areas".

In 2014, seven government departments in China jointly published the Implementation Scheme for Comprehensive Promotion on Energy Saving and Environmental Protection for Coal Fired Boilers, mapping out that all prefecture-level or above cities in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region and its surrounding area should phase out coal fired boilers of 10 steam tons per hour or below in their built-up areas and Beijing should abolish all coal fired boilers in its built-up areas by the end of 2015 unless necessary retaining; by 2017, all prefecture-level or above cities should phase out coal fired boilers of 10 steam tons per hour or below in their built-up areas in China and all prefecture-level or above cities in Hebei Province and Tianjin should phase out coal fired boilers of 35 steam tons per hour or below in their built-up areas. Upon this, authorities at different levels published their own Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan respectively, so as to further specify and bring into action the target goals.
