Global Spray Drying Equipment Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032

Spray drying utilizes hot air to convert liquids or slurries into dry powders, particularly effective for drying heat-sensitive substances like pharmaceuticals and foods. This rapid process involves spraying the liquid with hot gas, yielding a fine powder. It proves beneficial for delicate items such as foods and medicines. Achieving a uniform particle size is crucial for certain industrial materials like catalysts, making spray drying essential.

The technique is extensively used across industries such as food processing, dairy, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and chemicals. This has spurred manufacturers to develop specialized equipment for various input materials like solutions, pastes, gels, slurries, suspensions, and melts.

India holds the title of the largest supplier of generic medicines worldwide, contributing to 20% of the global supply by volume. It also stands out as the top vaccine manufacturer on a global scale, as per the National Investment Promotion and Facilitation Agency thus boosting the global spray drying equipment market growth.
