Synopsis
The global market for Desiccant Rotors was estimated to be worth US$ 205 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 278 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
A desiccant rotor (desiccant wheel) is very similar to a thermal wheel, but with a coating applied for the sole purpose of dehumidifying, or "drying", the air stream. The desiccant is normally silica gel. As the wheel turns, the desiccant passes alternately through the incoming air, where the moisture is adsorbed, and through a “regenerating” zone, where the desiccant is dried and the moisture expelled. The wheel continues to rotate, and the adsorbent process is repeated. Regeneration is normally carried out by the use of a heating coil, such as a water or steam coil, or a direct-fired gas burner. Thermal wheels and desiccant wheels are often used in series configuration to provide the required dehumidification as well as recovering the heat from the regeneration cycle.
More and more dehumidification wheel systems are integrating IoT technology, using sensors to monitor ambient humidity and temperature in real time, enabling remote data collection and analysis, so that dehumidification operation modes can be automatically adjusted to improve energy efficiency and system performance. Intelligent control systems can automatically adjust operation strategies based on real-time humidity data, optimize energy consumption, reduce human intervention, and improve maintenance efficiency.
The development of new materials (such as improved molecular sieves, silica gel, etc.) will greatly improve the energy efficiency ratio of dehumidification wheels, enabling them to achieve better dehumidification performance under both low and high humidity conditions.
The pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and electronics industries have very strict requirements for humidity control. Desiccant rotors are essential to maintain optimal humidity levels to ensure product quality and safety. The rise of electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy storage has driven demand for lithium-ion batteries, which require a low humidity environment during production to improve performance and safety.
The industrialization and urbanization processes in regions such as Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Africa have driven the demand for efficient humidity control systems. Develop more customized dehumidification solutions for the special needs of different industries and application scenarios, such as food preservation, pharmaceutical drying, space technology, and other fields.
