Increased Utilization of Hollow Fiber Membranes by Municipalities to Drive Market Expansion

Rise in global population has fueled the requirement for clean, safe, and potable water, which, in turn, is increasing demand for wastewater treatment. All the wastewater from large cities and towns is generally collected through sewers and sent to a municipal wastewater treatment facility. The reuse potential of hollow fiber ceramic membrane effluents is high with most membrane systems providing superior quality reusable effluents. Most of the treated water can be directly utilized for municipality purposes or even be safely dumped in the sea without violating environmental norms. HFCMs are ideal for use when smaller spaces are available and the need for high quality treated water fit for reuse is high. Demand for high quality treated water from municipalities is rising at a steady pace owing to the increase in population. This is driving the hollow fiber ceramic membrane market.

Microfiltration Application to Dominate the Global Hollow Fiber Ceramic Membrane Market

In terms of application, the hollow fiber ceramic membrane market can be divided into ultrafiltration, microfiltration, and nanofiltration. The microfiltration segment is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. Ultrafiltration and microfiltration membranes are primarily made from alumina, titanium oxide, and zirconium oxide. These materials can withstand high temperatures and harsh chemical environments, making membranes made from these materials ideal for use in the dairy, food, pharmaceutical, biological, paint, paper, and water industries. The nanofiltration segment is anticipated to expand at a significant CAGR of over 13.0% during forecast period, owing to the current boom in the water & waste water processing & pharmaceutical industries increase in disposable income, and technological advancements. Nanofiltration membranes are used in various industrial applications and are also used for the concentration of sugars, dyes, and other substances.
