Key Issues with Industrial Boilers

For companies and municipalities operating industrial boilers built between the 1970s and 1990s, the challenges are becoming increasingly apparent. Are you struggling with frequent breakdowns caused by age-related deterioration, and the spiraling repair costs that follow each incident? Are you concerned about how long your system can continue to operate safely, and questioning the cost-effectiveness of decommissioning your current boiler and investing in a new one?

Typically, the service life of an industrial boiler is said to be 30 to 40 years. Beyond this period, oxidation and corrosion can reduce the structural integrity of the boiler body, leading to frequent failures of tanks, piping, and control components, as well as a significant decline in operational efficiency. While it is possible to continue operating the system by repairing each fault as it occurs, the mounting repair expenses will severely undermine the overall cost-effectiveness of the system. The most fundamental solution is to decommission the aging boiler and install a new one.

However, a significant challenge lies in the high cost of boilers from major domestic Japanese manufacturers. Furthermore, in recent years, many of these companies have shifted their focus towards large-scale industrial boilers. This has created a situation where there are fewer domestic options available for the replacement of small to medium-sized boilers, which are the most widely used systems.

Sourcing boilers and equipment from overseas may seem like a less expensive alternative, but both large and small companies often face significant quality issues. This can lead to a scenario where costly modifications are required after the equipment arrives in Japan, ultimately inflating the total cost. There have also been cases involving fraudulent reporting or deception by overseas firms, sometimes forcing companies to abandon the project altogether. Another issue is that when Japanese companies intervene excessively in quality control, even for equipment produced overseas by major brands, the final cost can end up being comparable to domestic prices.

Success in international projects also hinges on mutual respect and collaborative partnerships. A top-down or condescending approach during negotiations can be problematic in any country, and this style is known to be particularly ineffective when working with companies in regions such as China.
