Rising Production Scale Motivates Flash Dryers Market Growth & Demand

Posted by Arslan on March 7th, 2019

Flash dryers are inexpensive solution for drying granular materials and powders, where wet material is dispersed in a stream of hot air/gas that further conveys it via a drying duct. The material undergoes drying process by coming in contact with heat from the airstream.  Application of flash dryers spars across a wide range of industrial sectors, including mineral, chemical, and agrifood. For slurries, sticky materials, and pastes, backmixing of wet feed with dry product is used for producing suitable conditioned material.

Demand for Flash Dryers to Grow Owing to its Indispensability in the Process Industry

Flash dryers have witnessed considerable demand in the process industries such as minerals and chemical, owing to their application in the drying process. Emphasis on process efficiency and product quality has a significant impact on development of flash dryers in terms of efficacy and performance. Flash dryers have witnessed continuous advancements in recent years, with prominent manufacturers focusing on the development of process requirement-specific flash dryers. Availability of a variety of flash dryers, ranging from small-sized to large-sized variants have further resulted in a dramatic increase in demand from the process industries, that continuously seek flash dryers with improved performance and efficiency.

End-User Demand Shifting Towards Customized Flash Dryers

Customized flash dryers that offer variations in configurations and feeding systems are witnessing an upsurge in demand, owing to changing requirements of industrial processes and growing number of food processing industries. Agitated swirl spin flash dryers, wherein material is fed to dryer housing through suitable feed mechanism mounted on the rotating swirl agitator is one of the key customized flash dryers’ developments. Demand for flash dryers with customized configurations such as double paddle mixer for backward mixing of dry products, and feed bin integrated with lump breaker is likely to propel demand for customized flash dryers.

Environmental Regulations and High Operational Cost: The Achilles’ heel for Flash Dryer Manufacturers

Energy-intensive process of drying, which accounts for nearly two-fifth of energy consumed relative to other operations of process industries, has been directly affecting growth of the flash dryers market. Indirect operation of flash dryers, which need hot air/gas for drying process, result in dependency on burning fossil fuels. This further leads to additional operational costs and increases the environmental footprint of flash dryers, which in turn is a major challenge arresting growth of the flash dryers market. Additionally, stringent regulations imposed by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) on process industries have further restricted use of drying equipment, thereby impeding growth of the flash dryers market. Availability of cost-effective and energy-efficient alternatives that include fluidized bed dryers and spray dryers have led small industries to shift their focus from flash dryers, which will remain a key growth impediment for the flash dryers market in the near future.

Medium-Sized Flash Dryers Category Growing Faster than Small- and Large- Variants

Medium-sized flash dryers will continue to outsell small- and large-sized flash dryers during the forecast period. Revenues from medium-sized flash dryers are expected to account for over two-fifth share of the flash dryers market by 2028-end. Advent and advancements in continuous flash dryers has brought significant transformations in the industrial automation sector. This is fundamentally underpinned by growing investment in flash dryer development to cater to demand in food and chemical industries. Managing process time in end-use industries is a key factor that has propelled demand for medium-sized continuous flash dryers in recent years. Proliferation of SMEs apropos of drying plants in emerging markets will continue to favor demand for medium-sized flash dryers in the near future.
