Dilute Phase
Dilute phase is a sub-segment of the pneumatic conveying systems market. It is a widely adopted conveying method that allows the transport of dry bulk materials over long distances. In dilute phase conveying, materials are suspended in high-velocity air and then transported through a pipeline. This method is suitable for materials with good flow characteristics and low abrasive properties.
This conveying method offers several advantages, such as low transportation costs, minimal product degradation, and ease of automation. Additionally, it ensures better control over material flow, reducing the risk of material segregation and degradation. The dilute phase conveying segment is expected to witness significant growth due to its versatility and wide application across various industries, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.
The global pneumatic conveying systems market is highly competitive, with several players striving to gain a substantial market share. Prominent market players include Schenck Process Holding GmbH, Coperion K-Tron, Flexicon Corporation, Zeppelin Systems GmbH, Cyclonaire Corporation, Dong Yang P&F Co., Ltd., Dynamic Air Inc., Hillenbrand, Inc., Vac-U-Max, and Volkmann, Inc., among others.
These companies are primarily focusing on strategies such as mergers and acquisitions, product innovations, and collaborations to strengthen their market position. Additionally, they are investing in research and development activities to offer advanced pneumatic conveying systems that cater to the increasing demand for efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in material handling operations.
