Starch Recovery Systems Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2028)

Starch Recovery Systems Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2028)

The starch recovery system is a separating process in which white process water is pumped from the potato, wheat, corn, and other raw materials through washing system which separates water from starch by using centrifuge or decanter. Once the starch is separated during the process than it is recovered by using various recovery methods like refining sieves, hydro cyclones and centrifuges, vacuum filters, screw conveyors, filling stations. Thriving potato processing and preference for eco-efficient processing and escalating consumption of snack food items such as frozen potato items are likely to drive the expansion of starch recovery systems market over the upcoming years.

The starch recovery systems market is expected to grow at a steady rate of around CAGR of 5.5% from 2022 to 2028. The starch recovery systems market growth factor includes the expansion of the potato processing sector to fulfill high demand for processed potato products, which expands processing facilities as well as the surge in the starch recovery systems market. Companies are taking strategic alliances to maintain their position in the market. For instance, SiccaDania a food processing company acquires NivobaHovex. This acquisition helps SiccaDania to gain a strong position as an innovative market leader in machinery and high quality technical solutions in starch production process lines.

• Based on component type, the market is segmented into refining sieves, hydro cyclones and centrifuges, vacuum filters, screw conveyors and filling stations. Hydro cyclones and centrifuges segment is expected to witness a higher CAGR during the forecast period from 2022 to 2028. Hydrocyclones and centrifuges recovery system helps to recover the starch from the wastewater with low-cost method of recovering a valuable commodity resulting less trade water and fuller utilization of resources makes this system popular among the starch recovery manufacturers.
• Based on plant size type, the market is segmented into small, medium and large. Large plant size segment held a dominant market share in 2020. The main factor contributing to the success of large plant sizes is the availability of capital. With the aid of money, large-scale enterprises quickly and easily adopt the most cutting-edge starch recovery technologies, which helps them become major players in their industry and large-scale facilities are also concentrating on an environment friendly method of producing starch from potato wastewater.
• Based on application type, the market is segmented into frozen products, chips & snack pellets, dehydrated products and others. Among these frozen products held a significant share of the market in 2020, owing to emerging applications of frozen products in food and beverage industry. The demand for frozen potato products like french fries are rising globally and to fulfill this demand number of frozen potato processing lines are being built by various companies around the world.
• For a better understanding of the market adoption of the starch recovery systems, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in the countries such as North America (U.S., Canada, and the Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, U.K., France, Spain, Italy, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Rest of World. Asia Pacific dominated the global starch recovery systems market in 2020. Due to the high population concentration in this region, there is an increasing demand for processed potato products which expands the demand for starch recovery systems in this region. India and China along with other Asian countries hold great potential for the growth of specific market. Companies are increasing their footprints to APAC, which is driving the regional market. For instance, in September 2018, Ferrum acquired Hiller GmbH. This acquisition allows Hiller GmbH to improve its role in the economically competitive market and extend its operations in the regions of Asia and North America.
• Some of the major players operating in the market include GEA Group Aktiengesellschaft, Alfa Laval, Andritz, SiccaDania, Microtec Engineering Group Pty Ltd, Myande Group, G. Larsson Starch Technology AB, Sino-Food Machinery Co, Ltd., Flo-Mech, Hiller Separation & Process.
