Atmospheric deaerators are critical industrial systems designed to remove dissolved gases, primarily oxygen and carbon dioxide, from boiler feedwater to prevent corrosion and improve thermal efficiency. These systems utilize a combination of steam heating and mechanical scrubbing in a pressurized vessel, effectively reducing gas concentrations to parts-per-billion levels. The technology finds widespread application across power generation, chemical processing, and food production industries where water purity directly impacts operational safety and equipment longevity.
Market growth is primarily driven by stringent industrial water treatment regulations and the increasing adoption of energy-efficient steam generation systems. However, high capital expenditure requirements and technical limitations in extreme operating conditions present notable adoption barriers. Recent technological advancements in automated control systems and IoT-enabled monitoring are creating new opportunities for market expansion, particularly in developing economies with growing industrial sectors.
The global atmospheric deaerator market size was valued at USD 2.43 billion in 2024. The market is projected to grow from USD 2.61 billion in 2025 to USD 8.28 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 19.6% during the forecast period. CAGR of 19.6% (2024 – 2032)
