6 March 2017 | PBEI 2021, by Markets and Markets, a market research company. Factors such as rapid in- dustrialization in emerging economies, a thriving waste treatment industry, and in- creasing awareness about energy saving and energy efficiency are expected to drive the pneumatic conveying systems market. The positive-pressure pneumatic con- veying systems market is predicted to grow at the highest compound annual growth rate during the forecast period. These highly efficient systems are used to transport heavier materials, including gravel and powders over long distances. Systems can range from medium- to high-pressure, and they can be used to transfer free-flowing, granular, sticky, or very fine material. The other pneumatic conveying system type — which uses a vacuum — transfers material under low pressure for short distances. The largest market for pneumatic conveying systems is the Asia-Pacific re- gion, closely followed by North America. The countries with the highest demand for these systems are China, India, Australia, and Japan. Out of those countries, India is expected to dominate market demand in the region.

These types of projects are im- portant in Thailand because it is one of the largest sugarcane producers in the world and is the largest sugar exporter in Asia. The demonstration plant will handle 13.6 metric tons of bagasse per day (dry weight) and will manufacture about 3.8 metric tons of cellulosic sugar after going through the processes of pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification, and membrane separa- tion. The plant will also produce polyphe- nol and oligosaccharide, which can be made into livestock feed. The joint venture company will pursue commercialization through the demonstration project. Toray Industries, Tokyo, is an inte- grated chemical industry group with loca- tions in 26 countries. Mitsui Sugar, Tokyo, produces sugar and food ingredients. Pneumatic conveying systems market predicted to reach US$7.04 billion by 2021 NEW YORK, NY USA — The global pneumatic conveying systems mar- ket is expected to show growth in the near term, according to the report, Pneumatic Conveying Systems Market by Type, Operation, Industry, and Region — Global Forecast to Clariant to invest in mining business HOUSTON, TX USA — Clariant, Houston, has acquired Chemical & Mining Services Pty. Ltd., a provider of specialty chemicals and technical services to mining industry clients located mostly in Australia. In addition, Clariant has acquired SNF Flo- min's specialty mining chemicals business, a USA-based subsidiary of the SNF Group, which manufactures and distributes re- agents for the minerals processing industry. The two acquisitions will be part of Clari- ant's Mining Solutions business. Clariant Mining Solutions has also opened a new facility and is expanding an existing facility in North America. The newly inaugerated Mining Application and Development Center in Tucson, AZ USA, will be Clariant's regional hub for mining research. This location will allow for close proximity to customers and help create better cooperation on custom prod- ucts and solutions. Clariant's current facil- ity in Reserve, LA USA, has been expanded and is now able to also produce chemical blends for the mining industries, allowing improved customer service.
