Introduction
Absorption chillers are cooling units that deploy a heat
source to generate enough energy required for the cooling process and are
primarily used in food storage. They use heat to operate instead of mechanical
power. Absorption chillers are very energy-efficient as they consume a very
small amount of fuel as compared to other refrigeration devices and generally,
they use waste heat from the turbine or water heater to generate energy.
Low
boiling point refrigerants such as ammonia and lithium bromide are employed in
these units. Evaporation, absorption, and regeneration are the three phases of
chilling in this unit. They have a lower cooling performance. However, due to
their low operational cost, they are widely employed in the domestic,
commercial, and industrial sectors. Educational institutes, hospitals, and
minivans are some of the users of absorption chillers.
Drivers of Adoption Chillers Market
The demand for absorption chillers market size is expected to
grow on account of increasing adoption across various industries such as
pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, textile, power and energy, chemical and
petrochemicals, and others. Falling electricity prices and increasing investments
in infrastructure projects across fast-growing economies is expected to drive
the demand for these chillers over the projected period. Factors such as lower
operational cost, improved efficiency, and low noise are further boosting the
absorption chillers' market growth. Absorption chillers produce low emissions
of gas and other pollutants compared to conventional refrigerants. The market
is further propelling due to the environment-friendly nature of these units.
Restraints and opportunities
High cost associated with the maintenance and high
installation cost can hamper the market growth. High risk associated with the
deterioration & damage to the entire unit in case of air leakage from the
main panel may also restrain the growth of the market. However, stringent
regulations for chlorofluorocarbon refrigerants are expected to open growth
opportunities for the market. Moreover, absorption chillers' market size is
expected to grow on account of propelling applications of these systems in the
petrochemical industry.
Market Segmentation
The market of absorption chillers is segmented by type,
technology, end-user, and region. By type, the market is segmented as steam
absorption chillers, hot water absorption chillers, direct-fired absorption
chillers, and indirect-fired absorption chillers. By technology, the market is
segmented as a single-effect, double-effect, and triple-effect. By end-user,
the market is segmented as industrial, commercial, and residential.
Geographically, the market is segmented as North America, South America,
Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East.
North America region is expected to have a significant
market share of the global absorption chiller market share. The market share is
projected on account of the strong adoption of these units from the region’s
food processing and petroleum industries. Europe region will also have a
significant market share owing to the steady demand from the frozen food
sector. Asia Pacific region is expected to witness rapid growth on account of
rapid industrialization in the region. Growth in the food processing sector in
the region will further boost the market.
