What is vacuum evaporation?
Vacuum evaporation is the process of evaporating liquid at a lower-than-normal temperature by reducing the pressure in a liquid-filled container below the vapor pressure of the liquid. It is used to increase the concentration of substances dissolved in water. Vacuum evaporators are the most effective technologies for the treatment of industrial wastewater and minimizing the quantity of waste to dispose of.

Segment Analysis
By Technology Type
Based on the technology type, the market is segmented into mechanical vapor compression, heat pump, and thermal. Mechanical vapor recompression accounted for the largest share in 2021 and is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The mechanical vapor recompression technology is newer compared to thermal vapor recompression and is rapidly replacing the latter; although mechanical vapor recompression vacuum evaporators are costlier and consume more energy compared to other vacuum evaporators.
By Application Type
Based on the application type, the market is segmented as wastewater treatment, product processing, and others. Wastewater treatment dominated the market in 2021 and is expected to remain dominant during the forecast period. Rising concerns over wastewater disposal, stringent environmental regulations, and water scarcity across the globe are likely to drive the market. Increasing use of zero liquid discharge systems in end-use industries including chemical & petrochemical, textile, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, automotive, and paper & pulp to further drive the market.
Regional Insights
In terms of regions, North America is estimated to remain the largest market for vacuum evaporators during the forecast period due to increasing environmental concerns among the people and stringent government regulations related to wastewater disposal from the industries. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to register the highest growth (CAGR) with rapid industrialization, growing manufacturing industry, and infrastructural growth along with increasing awareness related to the environment in countries such as China and India.
