The global Electrode Slag Remelting Furnace (ESR) market size was USD 69 million in 2020 and market is projected to touch USD 140.37 million by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period.

 The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the electrode slag remelting furnace (ESR) market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Electrode Slag Remelting Furnace (ESR) is a metallurgical process that is used to produce high-quality metal with a high degree of purity and homogeneity. The process involves melting a consumable electrode in a slag bath, and then casting the molten metal into an ingot. The slag bath helps to refine the metal by removing impurities and promoting directional solidification.

ESR is a versatile process that can be used to produce a wide variety of metals, including steel, copper, aluminum, and nickel. It is particularly well-suited for producing metals that require a high degree of purity and homogeneity, such as those used in the aerospace, defense, and medical industries.

COVID-19 Impact: Pandemic Decreased the Market Demand

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the electrode slag remelting furnace (ESR) market share. The pandemic caused a slowdown in economic activity in all major regions of the world. This led to a decline in demand for steel and superalloys, which are used in a variety of industries, including the aerospace, defense, and automotive industries. The pandemic also caused supply chain disruptions, which made it difficult for Electrode slag remelting furnace (ESR) manufacturers to get the raw materials and components they need to build and maintain their furnaces. The pandemic also led to a decline in investment in new Electrode slag remelting furnace (ESR) capacity. This was due to the uncertainty about the future of the global economy and the demand for steel and superalloys.
