Increased use of the SSD (superheated steam drying) technique is identified as one of the major factors that will gain traction in the market in the next four years. Superheated steam gets in contact with the dry material and uses simple heat transfer to dry the wet material. Since SSD is a closed loop, it enables better control of pollution and almost all the heat used to evaporate water is recoverable by condensing the water vapor obtained, making this drying technique highly energy-efficient. Moreover, the absence of air eliminates the possibility of fire or explosion hazards that will make SSD the most preferred industrial drying technique.
