Future Market Insights projects that the demand for dried spent grain will reach a valuation of USD 14.8 billion by the end of 2023, with an anticipated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% from 2023 to 2033. By the end of this period, the market for dried spent grain is expected to grow to USD 24 billion. Spent grain is the solid byproduct left after brewing alcoholic beverages and is valued for its high fiber and protein content, making it suitable for a variety of applications.
Spent grain is commonly used in baking, as a food additive, and as livestock feed. Additionally, dried spent grain is recognized as a significant source of biogas and plant fertilizer. These attributes have made dried spent grain a valuable resource for brewers, helping to minimize waste and maximize the benefits of the brewing process. Craft breweries, in particular, leverage dried spent grain to support sustainable manufacturing practices.
As the global focus shifts toward alternative energy sources, the demand for biofuels is rapidly increasing. In 2017, biofuels and waste provided 9.1% of the world’s total primary energy needs. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global biofuel consumption is projected to reach 182 billion liters between 2023 and 2025. As a result, manufacturers of dried spent grain and other industry players are exploring innovative ways to leverage this growing trend and advance fuel technologies.
Dried spent grain is a significant by-product of breweries produced year-round, yet it remains inadequately managed both economically and environmentally. However, this biomass holds potential as a cost-effective source of bioenergy and valuable bio-products.
Recent studies have demonstrated the economic and technological feasibility of using dried spent grain as a fuel for energy applications, thanks to its hydrogen and carbon content, which enhance its calorific value.
As the most substantial by-product of the beer brewing process, dried spent grain primarily consists of the husks from barley grains, left behind after wort production. Rich in protein and fiber, dried spent grain is primarily used in baking and animal feed. Its increasing application in these industries is expected to drive up demand in the coming years.
