Although fluid mechanics are usually “invisible” to most people’s sights, the huge business opportunities that lie within them are still exposed because of the upcoming 3rd China International Fluid Machinery Exhibition to be held on November 20-22.

"No, I really don't have a booth. I'm sorry, next time..." According to Zhang Yubao, the secretary-general of the China General Machinery Association, this is a phrase often spoken by the staff of the association in recent months when they answered the phone. “In fact, we have already packaged the entire Beijing Exhibition Center, but the booth still cannot meet the needs of exhibitors.”

According to informed sources, as the only industrial product exhibition that has been held twice, the popularity of the 3rd China International Fluid Machinery Exhibition, apart from the organizing power of the organizers, the deeper reason lies in the huge business opportunities in the Chinese fluid machinery market. This point can be seen from the exhibition area and product grade of the giants of Chinese and foreign companies registered for the exhibition.

A rare "Chinese opportunity"

The first International Fluid Machinery Exhibition 5 years ago, with an exhibition area of ​​more than 6,000 square meters, only a few foreign exhibitors participated in the exhibition. Today's International Fluid Machinery Exhibition has reached an exhibition area of ​​26,000 square meters, more than 500 exhibiting companies, and internationally renowned fluid machinery companies are all present: GE of the United States, Linde of Germany, Ebara of Japan, Samsung of South Korea, DOTT of Italy...

Why are international giants so optimistic about the domestic market? The president of China General Machinery Industry Association Yan Yongbin broke the mystery: "This year is the first year of the 11th Five-Year Plan. During the "11th Five-Year Plan" and the next 10 years, the country will continue to increase the power, petrochemical, Investment in the areas of coal chemical industry and urban infrastructure, the development of these industries will bring rare opportunities for the development of fluid machinery."

Fluid machinery mainly includes pumps, fans, compressors, valves, gas separation equipment, gas purification equipment and other industries. It is a major part of the general machinery manufacturing industry. It has a wide range of applications and the demand is also quite amazing. Taking the petrochemical industry as an example, in the next 10 years, the state plans to develop more than 10 million-ton refineries, build and renovate more than 20 sets of million-ton ethylene plants, and at the same time, the country will need 600,000 to 1 million tons per year. More than ten sets of PTA projects. In addition, the country has approved Shenhua's Inner Mongolia coal direct liquefaction and oil production project with a total size of 5 million tons/year, a phase-one project of 2.5 million tons, and the first line of 1 million tons is under construction.

According to Yan Yongbin, in the Shenhua coal-to-oil project, the 2,000-ton hydrogenation reactor and the 120-ton high-thrust reciprocating compressor are the largest in the world, and the demand for large-scale air separation equipment is also very large. Moreover, the pumps and valves used Such equipment must work under conditions of high temperature, high pressure, corrosion resistance, and resistance to solid particles, with high technical content.

In terms of electricity, by the end of the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, the nation’s generator capacity is expected to reach 690 million kilowatts, and in 2005 the country’s total installed power capacity reached 510 million kilowatts. Based on this, the entire “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period has not yet been calculated. The installed capacity is about 200 million kilowatts. The development of the power industry is focused on 600,000 kilowatts of supercritical and ultra-supercritical units, 300,000 kilowatts of circulating fluidized bed boiler generators, large air-cooled units, and large gas turbine generator sets. At the same time, it is actively developing millions of kilowatt-class nuclear power units to develop pumping water. Energy storage and other hydroelectric generating units and 1000 kilowatt wind turbines.

In the metallurgical industry, during the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, the manufacturing industry needs to focus on the development of the large-scale thin-plate cold and hot rolling mills, plate mills, and complete sets of equipment that will serve steel mills for energy conservation and environmental protection. In the future, steel plates for automobiles, home appliances and steel, and large and medium-sized marine steel plates of more than 5 meters are to be gradually domesticated.

For environmental protection equipment, the market demand will continue to be urban sewage treatment equipment, recycled water reuse equipment, coal-fired flue gas desulfurization and denitrification equipment, municipal solid waste treatment equipment, and hazardous waste treatment equipment.

With the advancement of the circular economy, technical resources for comprehensive utilization of resources will accelerate development and become a new potential area for environmental protection machinery manufacturing.

Apart from the above-mentioned several traditional fluid machinery user industries, the two large-scale infrastructure projects of the West-East Gas Transmission Project and the South-to-North Water Diversion Project also provide a rare opportunity for the general machinery industry. The main line of the West-East Gas Pipeline was completed and put into operation in 2004. To ensure the downstream gas supply, an additional 5 billion cubic meters of natural gas expansion project has been implemented and more than 10 gas filling stations will be added to the trunk line. The east-to-south line project of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and the midline project have been started one after another. The east line is mainly for the construction of large-scale pumping stations. Besides the few pumping stations in the middle line, it mainly depends on the groundwater supply, and it is planned to construct more than 1,000 kilometers of diversion canals.
