An industrial evaporator is essential for converting liquid into a gaseous form, which can be collected if necessary. It finds applications in various food and non-food industries, particularly in water distillation units and processing systems.
The primary types of industrial evaporators include natural/forced circulation evaporators, falling film evaporators, rising film evaporators, multiple effect evaporators, agitated thin film evaporators, LPG storage tanks, MVC evaporators, electron beam evaporators, and other types. Falling film evaporators, for solvent recovery and high-quality cannabis extract oil production, separate substances with different boiling point temperatures. Industrial evaporators are utilized across pharmaceutical, chemical & petrochemical, electronics & semiconductor, pulp & paper, food & beverage, automotive, and other end-user industries.

Major trends in the forecast period include zero liquid discharge (ZLD) solutions, energy-efficient evaporators, membrane-based evaporation technologies, hybrid evaporation systems, adoption of evaporative cooling.
The growth of the food and beverage industries is fueling demand for the industrial evaporators market. The food and beverage sector encompasses a variety of establishments, including restaurants, cafeterias, cafes, fast-food outlets, pubs, delis, food manufacturing operations, catering services, food transportation, and more. Industrial evaporators concentrate food by using heat to evaporate water content. For example, in April 2022, a report from Common Thread Collective, a US-based e-commerce growth agency, indicated that global food and beverage sales reached $506 billion in 2022 and are projected to climb to $857 billion by 2025. Thus, the expansion of the food and beverage industries is driving the growth of the industrial evaporators market.
The industrial evaporators market is witnessing growth driven by the expanding chemical processing industry. The chemical processing industry encompasses the production, manufacturing, and processing of chemicals and chemical products. Industrial evaporators are instrumental in the chemical processing industry, providing solutions for concentration, separation, solvent recovery, and wastewater management. According to the American Chemical Society, the output of chemicals is projected to increase by 4.1% in 2022 and 2.4% in 2023. Therefore, the growing chemical processing industry is a key driver for the industrial evaporators market.
Leading companies in the industrial evaporation market are creating advanced products, such as controlled evaporation compartments, to improve precision and efficiency in liquid concentration and separation processes. Controlled evaporation compartments are specialized units that manage the rate and conditions of evaporation in industrial settings. For example, in January 2022, Biotage, a Sweden-based bioscience company, launched the TurboVap 96 Dual, an advanced well plate evaporator. This second-generation device features dual, independently controlled evaporation compartments that enhance sample preparation capabilities. It uses both top-heated nitrogen and bottom-convection heating to boost evaporation efficiency while reducing gas consumption. Additionally, it includes features to monitor energy and gas usage, allowing laboratories to manage resources more effectively.
Major companies in the industrial evaporation market are focusing on strategic collaborations to provide reliable services to customers. Strategic collaboration involves a mutually beneficial partnership between independent entities working together to achieve shared goals aligned with their individual strategic objectives. In March 2023, Organomation, a US-based manufacturer of laboratory equipment, partnered with Pacific Star Group, a US-based provider of laboratory equipment and supplies, to offer GSA approved evaporators. Pacific Star's GSA contract and extensive network allow Organomation to connect with government agencies and institutions seeking sample preparation equipment.
In January 2022, De Dietrich Process Systems, an India-based comprehensive solutions company, acquired Zean Engineering for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enables De Dietrich Process Systems to combine its international network strength with Zean Engineering's technical expertise, particularly in the manufacturing of thin film evaporators.
