According to Future Market Insights’ latest industry analysis, the global turboexpanders market size is estimated to be around USD 1.2 billion in 2024. It is projected to exhibit a CAGR growth of 5.40% over the forecast period, with an estimated market size of USD 2 billion by 2034.
The market for turboexpanders has been witnessing significant growth in recent years due to the increased demand for efficient natural gas processing plants, where they play a crucial role in gas processing and liquefaction. Industries are also placing a rising emphasis on optimizing energy usage and minimizing waste, with turboexpanders being used to harness the energy from high-pressure gas streams and convert it into mechanical power or electricity.
The surging demand for cryogenic applications in industries such as healthcare, food processing, and electronics is another factor driving the growth of the turboexpander market. Ongoing advancements in turboexpander design and manufacturing are leading to significant improvements in efficiency, reliability, and performance. This is also contributing to the widespread adoption of turboexpanders across various industries.
The oil and gas sector is increasingly adopting turboexpanders, especially companies involved in natural gas processing plants, LNG facilities, and oil refineries for gas processing, gas liquefaction, and hydrocarbon recovery processes. The sales of turboexpanders are also growing among chemical plants, where companies use them for cryogenic applications such as the separation and purification of gases, as well as for energy recovery from high-pressure gas streams.
“Companies in the turboexpander market must explore opportunities to expand their presence in both established and emerging markets. They can also establish partnerships, open new service centers, or acquire local businesses to better serve customers worldwide,” says Nikhil Kaitwade (Associate Vice President at Future Market Insights, Inc.).
